F1’s newly surfaced Monza track looks set to shake things up at this weekend’s Italian GP
Formula 1 teams face a step into the unknown this weekend with a newly resurfaced Monza set to throw up some surprises at the Italian Grand Prix. As part of a major revamp to modernise the famous Autodromo, which has included work on access tunnels and infrastructure, the entire track has been resurfaced. New asphalt often has a big impact on the characteristics of a venue, and early indications already point to a notable step change that could become a big talking point over the Monza weekend.
