FAST IS ONLY HALF THE JOB.
MONZAAutodromo Nazionale Monza
Monza gives you the speed. The chicanes ask what you plan to do with it. The difference is usually in the braking and the exit.
THE RACE WEEKENDThe lap, in numbers.

Where the lap is won. And lost.
RETTIFILO
Get the stop right.
The long pit straight ends in a tight chicane. This is one of the obvious places for a late-braking challenge.
THE PARK SECTION
Build the next run.
Fast stretches link the braking zones through the park. Exits matter when the next straight is so valuable.
CURVA ALBORETO
Bring the lap home.
The final bend feeds the start-finish straight. Look beyond the corner to the speed carried afterwards.
Monza, on your clock.
