Sticchi Damiani: “Concrete sign of the restart. Work finished on time thanks to teamwork”.
A few days after the conclusion of the works on the track of the Autodromo Nazionale Monza, the Automobile Club of Italy reveals the poster of the 2024 Formula 1 Pirelli Italian Grand Prix scheduled for September 1st.
“It is with great pride that we present the poster of the 95th Italian Grand Prix in Monza after a very demanding and also suffered year due to the works that were carried out at the National Autodrome, works made complex by external factors such as adverse weather and other complications of a technical nature – is the comment of the President of ACI, Angelo Sticchi Damiani –. But we made it 4 days ahead of the deadline set by the International Federation, i.e. 60 days before the grand prix took place. The success is due to the commitment of Sias, the Bacchi company, the director of the works, Professor Maurizio Crispino, ACI Progei and the General Director of the Autodromo Alfredo Scala. This collective effort definitively removed all doubts about maintaining the time commitment. This year our fans, teams and drivers will be able to welcome us to a renovated, more modern and safer circuit.”
The First Variant seen from an original perspective
Created by ACI according to Formula 1 guidelines, the poster provides an original image of the First Variation of the Autodromo Nazionale Monza as if it were filmed by the camera car: a privileged eye that takes the viewer into the heart of the action, making a competition come to life with the same perspective as the protagonists. In more detail it shows three drivers in close combat, a faithful reflection of a World Championship which is currently experiencing an exciting battle between Red Bull, McLaren, Mercedes and Ferrari. The First Variant is one of the points most appreciated by fans because it is among the main theaters of overtaking attempts. The subjective shots from the camera car also recall those of simulators, a means not only used by drivers to prepare the cars and train, but also a tool with which the new generations completely immerse themselves in the world of Formula 1, imitating their favorites.
