Kunos Simulazioni has secured the license to this track for Assetto Corsa, banking and all!





The acquisition of laserscan data was completed just a few weeks after the 2011 Formula 1 Italian Grand
Prix, during ideal weather conditions. The circuit was scanned in its entirety, including its historical areas,
such as the Sopraelevata, the famous high speed ring seen in John Frankeneimer's dramatic movie Grand
Prix. This section is considered today a monument to motorsport history, and is still used for the Rally
Monza winter event.
Marco Massarutto, Production Manager at Kunos Simulazioni adds:

We wish to thank all the people who support this project by buying a copy of our previous products. It is your
support that has made this made it possible for our independent team to acquire an important license like
this one. Thanks to the support of the simracing community, other official licensed contents will be
announced soon.”

Is it really that banked? All the games I play have it pretty flat... very cool.

ISI released a free track for rF1 they called "Brianza" that was Monza with the banked part usable. I like it a lot.

Man too many auto sims.Been into iRacing for quite a bit now, but now Rfactor 2 and project CARS plus this when it comes out, is there really too much of a good thing ? I know one thing its really screwing up my practice time in iRacing. Then again I haven't been able to wipe the smile off my face for almost a whole week smile

Us GPL'ers have been running "Monza 10K" since 2001.

No, the modern F1 track is as flat as you think it is. That is the old portion of the track, long abandoned to the ages.

I've raced the short version of Monza, too, in GTL and other Simbin titles many times, making that hard right just past the pit exit above the "L" in Rettifilo Tribune in that picture.

Looking at that, and remembering the many hours spent barging down the straights at Monza in GPL, it is sad to see the chicanes in light grey. The track is destroyed! Although it is the least-raped of all the classic GP circuits. Spa isn't what it used to be, and the Ring is the Ring in name only. Sad frown


In all my years I've never seen the like. It has to be more than a hundred sea miles and he brings us up on his tail. That's seamanship, Mr. Pullings. My God, that's seamanship!
