Kimi Antonelli leads F1 standings into the Italian Grand Prix at Monza

Formula 1 arrives at the Autodromo Nazionale di Monza in Italy for the Pirelli Grand Prix 2026. The race is scheduled for Sunday, September 6, at 3:00 p.m. local time. Mercedes driver Kimi Antonelli enters the weekend as the overall standings leader, though he faces a grid penalty that will relegate him to the back of the pack for the start of the race. This development potentially clears a path for his teammate George Russell or drivers from McLaren and Ferrari to compete for the win on the historic Italian circuit. In the United States, Apple TV maintains exclusive broadcast rights for the 2026 season and will stream the event. The race begins at 9:00 a.m. Eastern Time, with earlier start times observed across the remaining North American time zones.
