Formula 1 will return to the Temple of Speed this weekend, at the iconic Autodromo Nazionale di Monza, for round 16 of 24. It will be the final European race of the season, and it will conclude the current double header consisting of the Dutch and Italian Grand Prix.
McLaren returned to form after the summer break, with Oscar Piastri clinching his ninth win of the season at the Dutch Grand Prix, as Lando Norris suffered an unfortunate problem with reliability as his car retired with mechanical problems.
Currently, the McLaren duo have won seven of eight races in Europe, with Red Bull’s Max Verstappen sealing the first European victory of the season back in May, for the Emilia-Romanga Grand Prix.
Ferrari will also be heading home to their beloved Tifosi on the back of a double DNF at the Dutch Grand Prix, with Lewis Hamilton hitting the barrier and Charles Leclerc being hit by Mercedes’ Kimi Antonelli.
This weekend looks to be a dry weekend, avoiding the thundery showers which are expected to hit the region on Tuesday morning. So, according to BBC Weather, what does the weather look like for the Italian GP?
