Kimi Antonelli wins Italian Grand Prix at Monza
Kimi Antonelli won the 2026 Italian Grand Prix at Monza, becoming the first Italian winner of the race since 1966. The 20-year-old took victory from 19th on the grid in his second Formula 1 season.
At Monza on 6 September 2026, Kimi Antonelli delivered a home win in the Italian Grand Prix and sparked celebrations among the crowd. Earlier on Sunday, the tifosi had seen Charles Leclerc crash heavily at Parabolica.
Antonelli's result was notable on several counts. He won from 19th on the grid, was 20 years old, and was in only his second Formula 1 season.
The victory also made Antonelli the first Italian driver to win the Italian Grand Prix at Monza since 1966. Motorsport.com also framed 6 September as a special date at the circuit, recalling Pierre Gasly's AlphaTauri win there six years earlier.
