    The Autodromo Nazionale di Monza is the international car circuit built in 1922 inside the Monza Park and which every year, in September, hosts the Italian F1 Grand Prix, now in its 89th edition.

    The first version of the system included a circuit consisting of a road track, with seven curves, 5.5 km long and an oval-shaped speed ring with two elevated roads, 4.5 km long.
    The numerous attempts at speed records and the first unfortunate accidents made it necessary to redesign the system and modify the road track, which took place in 1955: the two curves that preceded the final straight were eliminated and replaced by a single large asphalted curve, called "parabolic" for its line with an increasing radius, similar to an arc of a parabola.

    It was in that year that the great myth of the "parabolic" was born, in a circuit that has always been considered as "the temple of speed" for the very high average speeds reached by the drivers driving the most performing racing cars. Excessive speed, however, was also the Achilles heel of the circuit for years, on which many F1 drivers lost their lives. In 1961, the Monza racetrack experienced one of the saddest days in its history and in this sport: during the Italian Grand Prix, Ferrari driver Wolfgang von Trips lost his life along with twelve spectators in a frightening accident on the straight before the parabolic.
