How to watch the Italian GP this weekend

Formula 1 makes the trip straight from Belgium to Italy in another back-to-back race weekend. The pinnacle series brings the junior categories of Formula 2 and GP3 with it, as the championship battles in all series pick up.

For viewers in the UK and Ireland, all of the F1 sessions will be shown exclusively on Sky Sports F1. Channel 4 will be running with highlight packages of qualifying and the race on Saturday and Sunday evening respectively.

Lewis Hamilton currently holds the advantage in the title fight, but Sebastian Vettel closed the deficit by 7 points at the race at Spa-Francorchamps last weekend. The Italian outfit will be hoping to take its first home victory since 2010.
