2026 F1 Italian Grand Prix - Monza Time Schedule
Round 13 of the 2026 season takes place this weekend with the 2026 F1 Italian Grand Prix from Monza.
Home favourite Kimi Antonelli holds a 59-point lead in the standings after the Dutch GP, with George Russell now second, ahead of Lewis Hamilton on countback, with both on 183 points.
Antonelli will be taking an engine-related grid penalty at his home race, so hopes of a first Italian winner at Monza since Michele Alboreto in 1985 are slim.
First practice for the weekend begins at 12:30 local time on Friday, September 4th, before Free Practice 2 is held that afternoon at 16:00 local time.
The third and final practice session is at 12:30 local time on Saturday, September 5th, with qualifying taking place at 16:00 local time that afternoon.
The 53-lap 2026 F1 Italian Grand Prix starts at 15:00 local time on Sunday, September 6th.
