Formula 1 Gran Premio Santander D'Italia 2011
After five months in Europe, Formula 1 will move to face the last stretch of the season on a trip through Asia that will end in Brazil. But first, history, myth, tradition will gather this weekend in Monza, which thousands of Italians and people from around the world, moving to the celebration might be called the great festival of speed.
Monza circuit speed synonymous with its long straights and short curves. Drivers tread and tread on the throttle pedal and require a car with a special aerodynamic package to meet the race with guarantees. A front and rear spoiler and unique new Monza this year will have two separate areas for the DRS, so the speed will still be higher than in recent years.
