Hosting the sprint qualifying format, the 14th round of the F1 season is held from September 10 to 12. How to see the Italian Grand Prix?
Monza and Silverstone are among the most iconic and historic circuits in the Formula 1. In this 2021 season, the Italian track and its British counterpart share another point in common: that of hosting the new “sprint qualifications” format. For the record, this is a 100 km race run on Saturday, at the end of which the winner officially takes pole position for the next day’s Grand Prix, the starting grid for this short race being established by a traditional qualifying session held on Friday. Less than two months after being experienced at Silverstone, this qualification format is therefore tested again, on the fast track of Monza. This 100 km run means that there will be 18 laps to go in the Temple of Speed (or 30 minutes maximum).
