Since the beginning of the championship era, no Formula 1 circuit has hosted more Grand Prix than Monza. The circuit’s centennial celebration in 2022 is a sign of its longevity and relevance on the F1 calendar.
Italy’s contributions to F1 are rivaled by a few others. Prior to the inaugural World Championship in 1950, the European country’s superior racers and machinery set the tone for what the sport has become today.
The Monza Circuit has been the hub of Formula 1 racing in Italy since its opening in 1922. The town of Monza is 10 miles to the northwest of Milan and the circuit is in the royal park there.
