What to know about Lateral Parabolic grandstand at Monza

This uncovered grandstand captures the braking zone where drivers decelerate sharply after the long straight, creating frequent overtaking opportunities and close racing battles. The stand offers numbered seats, so you can reserve your exact position in advance.
A video wall positioned opposite the grandstand displays live footage and timing information, helping you follow the race action and context beyond what is visible directly in front of you.
