Every Italian Grand Prix winner since 2000, measured: Monza belongs to the front row, except when it does not
Twenty-seven Italian Grands Prix have been held at Monza since 2000, and pole won sixteen. The exceptions are some of the strangest wins of the era: Gasly from tenth in 2020, and Kimi Antonelli from nineteenth at his home race in 2026. Every winner, grid slot, safety car and red flag, measured.

He restarted twelfth after the red flag, made one more pit stop than the man he was chasing, and still had enough left to set the fastest lap of the race on the road to the flag.
