As we near the next race week in the last half of the 2015 Formula 1 season, the teams will be traveling to Monza, Italy.
The "Autodromo Nazionale Monza" is one of the oldest circuits on the calendar and also one with the largest capacity. The circuit opened back in September of 1922 and has hosted the race every year except for once. It's capacity is a total of around 113,000. It's 3.600 miles in length and the current version of the circuit has 11 turns and runs clockwise. The race at Monza consists of 53 laps as of currently.
Last year, we saw Lewis Hamilton take Pole Position and go on to win the race. Rosberg finished in Second and Felipe Massa in Third. Retirements included Fernando Alonso (Engine) and Max Chilton (Accident) - It was a huge disappointment for the crowd with Fernando out as it was his last year with Ferrari and the Italian fans had been praising him to be on the podium.
Italy always brings an action-filled race, so there's plenty to look forward to.
