Italian Monza F1® Grand Prix Autodromo Nazionale

  Can Ferrari’s Monza Power Unit Upgrade Dethrone the Silver Arrows? After a stunning Zandvoort race and a masterclass of driving by the current F1 ®  World Champion, Lando Norris , our next stop in this second half of the season is the Italian Monza Grand Prix , and I, for one, am excited for many reasons. At Senate Grand Prix , we keep our ears firmly to the ground in the pit lane, and the technical whispers coming out of Maranello suggest a massive showdown is brewing. Heading into the second half of the season, reports indicate Ferrari is preparing to unleash a significant power unit upgrade for their home race at Monza, and that's why I am excited. The 2026 engine regulations have been a challenge. So far, only Mercedes has nailed it under the expert eye of Toto Wolff . Technical clarifications and the FIA's hot-measurement testing have tightened those margins, and Ferrari's engine department, led by Enrico Gualtieri , has spent the opening rounds refining its own...

Lewis Hamilton's Cryptic Comments


It will be a sad day in the world of motor sports if Sir Lewis Hamilton retires. 

As of late, his frustrating time with Ferrari has been a consistent talking point. 

He has not had a Grand Prix podium this year, with his only top-three finish with Ferrari so far being the sprint race win in China.


Lewis Hamilton is currently, as we understand it, working doggedly and frantically on the Ferrari SF-26 for the monumental 2026 regulation changes.


I don't want to dig up old graves, but without the controversial Michael Masi decision in Abu Dhabi, where Max won his first WDC, Lewis would already be an eight-time World Drivers' Champion. 

He handled himself with incredible grace and dignity in the aftermath, as he has done throughout his career.


Personally, I want Lewis to win his eighth World Drivers' Championship

When you see sporting legends like Stephen Hendry and Ronnie "The Rocket" O’Sullivan, both holding seven world snooker titles, you can't help but want to will these older sportsmen in a younger man's game to achieve that record-breaking eighth, as I wished to Michael Jordan to win his seventh NBA championship and still do today. These things never go away, and I am sure Lewis will regret it if he walks away. 


There is something romantic about holding onto these extraordinary titles, which are once-in-a-lifetime generational talents that come into our lives, and I hope that Lewis fights for his eighth world driver's title.


As the clock ticks down towards 2026, the landscape of Formula 1® is changing rapidly. Cadillac is coming to Formula 1®, Audi is coming to Formula 1®, and the Andretti family, with Mario Andretti as a keen influencer, remains determined to join.


The sport is growing, becoming more popular than ever, with every race weekend selling out.


The excitement is palpable, the narratives are compelling, and the stage is set for a truly exhilarating future. And in this incredible unfolding spectacle.


And as always, when the lights go out and the drama unfolds, here at Senate Grand Prix, there is only one winner, and that's you, the race fans!
