The Monza circuit, described as the ‘Temple of Speed,’ serves as a historic center for Formula 1 and Ferrari fans. Recent activities at the track included a notable moment where an F1 mechanic used a football-style control to stop a runaway tire.

However, the atmosphere surrounding the Italian Grand Prix was later significantly impacted by the September 11 terrorist attacks in the United States. The tragedy replaced the expected festive mood with sadness and security concerns. While the race proceeded, Ferrari President Luca di Montezemolo opted to cancel the team’s planned celebrations.
