Only one week after an interesting race in Belgium, the most popular car race in the world Formula 1 is ready to kick off at legendary Autodromo Nazionale Monza, located in a city called Monza which is situated on the north of Milan. The race will start on Sunday at 2 pm according to the local time.
The first thing you should know about Monza circuit is that it is one of the oldest and fastest circuits in the Formula 1 calendar. The fastest lap in Formula 1 history set by the former Williams driver Juan Pablo Montoya in 2004. He lapped at an average speed of 262.242 km/h in the pre-qualifying session. Here is the video of the flying Colombian:
As you can see in the video, Monza is a perfect circuit for the most powerful engines as the drivers need to push the gas throughout the race. Therefore, Mercs will have the upper hand. This prediction is reflected by the betting odds of the best sports betting sites in the EU to bet on Formula 1. But, we will talk about the 2016 Italian GP betting odds little bit later.
The fast feature of the track gives advantage to Force India as well, as they use Mercedes engine which is capable of speeding up for a long time without any issue. Nevertheless, they are still behind Red Bull and Ferrari on the paper. We will see whether Hulkenberg and Perez will be able to prove us wrong at the end of the race.
Hamilton Climbed to the Top 3 Times in Monza
Mercede’s three-time world champion driver Lewis Hamilton won three of the last four Italian Grand Prix races. Ferrari’s Sebastian Vettel is the other driver who as many wins as Hamilton at Monza. They are still somehow far from the Formula 1 legend Michael Schumacher who won five times on this track.
Ferrari is returning back to home. However, it may not give a lot of advantage to team as the Mercedes drivers are clearly better this year. Currently, Lewis Hamilton is leading the championship with 232 points as his teammate Nico Rosberg is in his tail with 223 points. The third driver Red Bull’s Daneil Ricciardo is somewhat far from the Mercedes duo with 151 points. Ferrari drivers Sebastian Vettel and Kimi Raikkonen are following the Aussie with 128 and 124 points respectively. Red Bull’s prodigy Max Verstappen is the last driver whose points (115) are written in three digit numbers.
As the championship table indicates that the drivers are pretty close to each other. Therefore, there will be a fierce race in Italy. As we come closer to the end of the season, races are getting to be more and more interesting as we saw last week in Belgium. Right at the start, Vettel, Raikkonen, and Verstappen involved in a crash which actually effected the fate of the race immensely. In addition to that Hamilton got a grid penalty and he managed to finish on the 3rd place coming from all the way from the 22nd. Rosberg was extremely lucky at Spa.

Yes, Rosberg was really luck in Belgium. However, Italy won’t be the same as Hamilton won’t have a penalty and the Ferraris and the Red Bulls may not get into such an accident twice in a row.
The weather is expected to be around 31 degrees at the weekend. However, there is a chance of rain. When it rained last time during the Italian GP in 2008, Vettel managed to win his first GP as an F1 driver. It was the first ever GP win for Toro Rosso as well.
