Seven days after one great track, Recipe 1 moves to another, swapping the pine timberlands and fast corners of Belgium's Spa-Francorchamps for the long straights and chicanes of the Monza regal stop and the Italian Excellent Prix.

The tracks are similarly noteworthy, yet for suggestion no place approaches Monza.

Spa's past is noticeable all over the place. A large portion of the present track shaped piece of the more extended, speedier old one. Also, the well known corners - Burnenville, Masta - are currently part of the street arrange around the cutting edge circuit.

Be that as it may, at Monza the history is unmistakable.

On the off chance that that sounds absurd - I can just propose you go there. Some way or another at Monza, yesteryear is available, and the present conveys the feeling of future recollections.

What's more, the track has barely changed. Aside from the chicanes that were embedded to back it off 40 or so years prior, the one on which Lewis Hamilton and Sebastian Vettel will race this year is the same as the one from the 1970s, 1950s and the 1920s.

So much has occurred there. Incredible triumphs and extraordinary tragedies; and the phantoms of both feel like they frequent the place.

The pre-fall Lombardy light is brilliant. Trees throwing digressive shadows through the early morning fogs, Alps on the northern skyline.

There is a quietness to the place. Yet additionally a franticness.

Campgrounds in the antiquated woods, grills smoking morning and night.

Fans pressing the grandstands, droning, cheering. Also, the activity can be insane.

Silverstone is its equivalent regarding the devotion of the fans, yet just the Japanese at Suzuka can coordinate the energy of the tifosi as they venerate at this extraordinary sanctuary of speed, and the popular group that is such a piece of it.

This year ought to be something different once more. This decade, a Ferrari driver has twice come to Monza as a title contender - Fernando Alonso in 2010 and 2012. Be that as it may, the Spaniard was battling against the chances. This year, Vettel is driving the title as well as is apparently the most loved for it.

It ought to be Monza in extremis. What's more, there is nothing in motorsport like that.
