This year's Formula 1 season has been one of the best ever so far. Every race has had its fair share of excitement, drama, controversy and all round entertainment. The Italian Grand Prix takes place this weekend and it is a massive one in terms of both the Drivers and Constructers Championships.
After a mid-season break, all eyes were on the Belgian Grand Prix last weekend and Formula 1 certainly came back with a bang. Both Lewis Hamilton and Fernando Alonso were eliminated in the early stages of the race in a huge crash, which Lotus driver Romain Grosjean caused.
Both of these two are now sure to want to come out strong and bounce back from the disappointment in Belgium, putting things right and taking a victory at Monza.
In terms of what this meant for the title, Alonso still sits on top but has seen his lead close to 24 points after Sebastian Vettel, who sits in second place after finishing as the runner-up last time out.
Jenson Button got himself back in title contention with a very impressive victory and he is now 63 points off the lead in sixth place with 200 still available.
With six drivers still going for top spot, each Grand Prix is bigger than the last one at this stage and if you cannot pick up points, it can be fatal to your chances.
At Monza this weekend all eyes will be on those six drivers which includes Kimi Raikkonen and Mark Webber. Vettel was the winner of this race last year though and has finished on top of the podium twice in the last four years. Fernando Alonso has also come out on top twice and none of the other title contenders have ever been victorious here.
Qualifying is sure to be key in the result in this Italian Grand Prix. If you are in pole position, then there is of course a great chance of success, especially as the last three winners all started first on the grid.
With eight races still left in this incredible campaign, anything can still happen. If Alonso crashes again he may slip down the table and another win for Button would put him massively in contention. It is so tough to call but that is what makes Formula 1 brilliant.
Sebastian Vettel has proven that winning isn't everything though. He has won just one Grand Prix all season but has been consistently in the on the podium or among the chasing pack and finds himself in second place.
