The 2023 Italian Grand Prix at Monza will take place on Sunday, September 3, at 14:00 BST. It will be the 14th race in the 2023 Formula 1 season and is the final event in the European stint of the season. It's the home race for Ferrari, so expect plenty of Tifosi in the stands throughout the weekend. 

Verstappen and Red Bull Racing will be the favourites going into the race weekend because of their long streak of consecutive wins. They've also won the 2022 Italian Grand Prix last year. The Dutchman already has a huge lead in the World Championship, and it's already a question of when rather than if. Meanwhile, Mercedes, Ferrari, Aston Martin and even McLaren will push to try and topple Red Bull's record run of wins. 

When will the drivers be in action?

The Italian Grand Prix weekend will see the traditional format of Formula 1. That means three practice sessions will be completed on Friday and Saturday. Qualifying will occur on Saturday afternoon, and the race will occur on Sunday, September 3, at 15:00 local time (14:00 BST).
