Ecclestone, Italian officials reach deal to retain Monza
Print Edition
FORMULA One boss Bernie Ecclestone and the Italian Automobile Club have reached an agreement to keep the Italian Grand Prix in Monza for the next three years.
While the deal hasn’t been officially signed yet, Ecclestone said it’s a matter only of “small details” at this point. The deal is reportedly worth 68 million euros (US$76 million), slightly less than the 25 million euros per year Ecclestone requested. No circuit has hosted more F1 racing than Monza, which was on the inaugural 1950 calendar and dropped off only in 1980 when Imola hosted the Italian GP. Championship leader Lewis Hamilton, meanwhile, bounced back to top the times ahead of his Mercedes teammate Nico Rosberg in yesterday’s second free practice for this weekend’s Italian Grand Prix. The defending three-time world champion, who leads Rosberg by nine points in the title race, was second behind him in yesterday’s opening session. On a hot late summer’s afternoon at the old Autodromo Nazionale in Monza’s former royal park, the 31-year-old Briton clocked a best lap of one minute and 22.801 seconds to outpace German Rosberg by 0.193 seconds.
