Formula 1 is holding a celebratory event for the 20th anniversary of the Cars franchise. The celebration takes place at the Monza circuit, where the Italian Grand Prix is traditionally held. This anniversary marks the intersection of the automotive industry and animation, with the support of partners. The main element of the celebration is the character Lightning, whose appearance has been refreshed with a new design developed through a joint effort by the teams. This visual identity becomes the central motif of the entire event.

During the weekend, visitors will have the opportunity to witness a special performance on the track. The central part of the programme features the Mercedes-AMG GT 63 Pro 4MATIC. This model, equipped with a fully variable drive, represents the 14th safety car in the history of the competition. A special edition of this car, designed exclusively for this occasion, will stand out on the Monza track. In addition to technical innovations, the public has the opportunity to purchase exclusive products from the joint collection of Formula 1 and the film Cars. The offer includes clothing and fashion accessories, as well as Mattel die-cast models, allowing fans to keep a memento of this special event.
