Universally known as the “Temple of Speed”, the Monza track has hosted the Italian Grand Prix since 1922 when a FIAT 804 emerged as the winner. This was followed by the era of __Bugatti__ and, above all, __Alfa Romeo__, which achieved a series of successes culminating in 1950 when, thanks to the victory in Monza, they secured the first-ever World Drivers’ Championship title. The championship, which is still contested to this day, was established that year, and Alfa Romeo conquered it with the famous “Alfetta” 159.
