Monza is a great place for historic Formula One moments, and Damien Smith believes this weekend could well provide a few more of them...
I wish I was heading off to Monza this week. One of the downsides of being "the chief" at Autosport is that it is the closest thing I've ever had to a proper desk job (mind-numbing temping work in an insurance office when I left university doesn't really count). And the desk job means less of the good stuff: going to races.
With my quota of Grands Prix filled for this year, I'll be watching the Italian Grand Prix on TV like the majority of motor racing fans. But at least I've got a load of great memories to draw on from my previous visits - because Monza is always one of the highlights of the season.
