Swedish driver Marcus Ericsson suffered a heavy accident during FP2 at the Italian GP. The Alfa Romeo-Sauber driver blasted down the front straight but lost control under braking. The car swerved and pitched into the barrier before somersaulting a few times. This was only the third crash that one of the drivers has been involved in for the 3rd consecutive race. However, in the two earlier instances, the victim was Charles LeClerc. One thing is for sure, it will be a massive headache for Sauber to rebuild the car in preparation for tomorrow. Being one of the fastest circuits on the calendar, a high-speed crash will be unforgiving. The barrier certainly did a huge number on the car and will need a massive rebuild. OneThe question is, can the team fix the car in time for FP3 on Saturday? Only one way to find out. 

Marcus Ericsson suffered a huge crash in the second free practice session at the
Italian Grand Prix in Monza earlier today

<h2><strong>Circuit Details</strong></h2>
Monza is fondly known as the Temple of Speed and is the fastest circuit on the Formula 1 calendar. The circuit is characterized by long straights and a handful of chicanes and high-speed corners. Having been been an integral part of Formula 1 since its inception in 1950, the track's rich history makes it the personification of the sport, according to many.

One of the most famous corners is the Curva Parabolica, the final corner. It is here that many a race have been won or lost, or has seen a lot of drama.

The circuit itself has also undergone a number of changes since 1950. In other words, evolving from an oval to the modern-day layout and still retaining its title of being one of the fastest F1 circuits.
<h2><strong>Where to watch</strong></h2>
In India, the practice sessions, qualifying, and the race will be broadcast on the Star Sports network. In Africa, Supersport is in charge of broadcast while in Asia and Australia, Fox Sports handles the broadcast. Canada has RDS while China telecasts the race on CCTV.

France relies of TF1 and Canal+ for their Formula One telecast. Germany, Austria, and Switzerland have RTL Germany to thank. Italians who cannot travel to Monza can catch the race on Sky Italia. Spain and Andorra have Movistar, while the United Kingdom has Channel 4 and Sky Sports. USA also shows the race on ESPN.
<h2><strong>Tickets</strong></h2>
Tickets are available on the <a href="https://f1experiences.com/2021-italian-grand-prix" target="_blank" rel="noopener">official Formula One website</a>.
<h2><strong>Venue</strong></h2>
As always, since the 1950 season, the venue for the Italian Grand Prix has been the Autodromo Nazionale Monza. Also, <a href="https://www.autosport.com/f1/news/145772/monza-finally-secures-f1-future-with-fiveyear-deal" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">according</a> to latest reports, the venue will stay on until at least 2024.
