200mph thrills, spills and over a century of history: Formula 1 returns this weekend to Monza – aka The Temple of Speed – for the Italian Grand Prix, the 16th round of the 2025 season.

Lando Norris endured true heartbreak when his car broke down in Zandvoort, and the Brit will seek to reduce the gap to Oscar Piastri after that retirement.

Meanwhile, Lewis Hamilton starts his first Italian GP as a Ferrari driver on the back foot as a result of his Dutch GP grid penalty.

Fans in the UK can catch every session live on Sky Sports F1, with extended highlights on Channel 4.

Here is the full GP weekend schedule.
