The drivers and teams were initially the same as the season entry list with no additional stand-in drivers for the race.[7] Antonio Giovinazzi drove for Haas in place of Mick Schumacher,[8] while Nyck de Vries drove for Aston Martin in place of Sebastian Vettel, during the first practice session.[9] De Vries was called up to race for Williams in place of Alexander Albon as he was ruled out with appendicitis before the third practice session.[10] The Grand Prix marked the 349th race start for Fernando Alonso, equalling Kimi Räikkönen's record for most Formula One starts.[11]
The race took place on 11 September 2022 at 15:00 local time, lasting 53 laps. Charles Leclerc led away from pole, George Russell and Lando Norris behind. Max Verstappen came to third position on lap 4 and second on lap 5. Sergio Pérez came to the pit earlier on lap 10 for hard tyres and rejoined the track with an ongoing brake fire, which later extinguished itself. On lap 10, Sebastian Vettel stopped his car due to engine issues resulting a deployment of a virtual safety car (VSC). This prompted Leclerc to change his tyres, as less time is lost when pitting under VSC conditions, surrending the lead to Verstappen. On lap 26, Leclerc retook the lead after Verstappen changed his tyres, Verstappen rejoined the track ten seconds behind Leclerc. Alpine decided to retire Fernando Alonso car on lap 31 in the pitlane due to a water pressure issue. Leclerc made a second pitstop on lap 34, giving Verstappen the lead. Lance Stroll retired on lap 39 due to similar engine issue suffered by his teammate Sebastian Vettel on lap 10. Daniel Ricciardo stopped his car due to the oil leak suffered from his car resulting in the safety car being deployed until the end of the race. The race was ended on lap 53 with Verstappen winning the race behind safety car.
The safety car procedure following Ricciardo's retirement drew scrutiny, with discussions surrounding the decisions taken, after it turned out that marshals could not move the car expeditiously. The incident caused the race to be ended under the safety car.[21] Charles Leclerc and Lando Norris expressed their frustration over the safety car race ending.[22] Ferrari team principal Mattia Binotto and Red Bull Racing team principal Christian Horner gave their opinion: Binotto stated he disagreed with the FIA's decision to end the race under safety car and accused them of sleeping during the race, while Horner stated that it was not the manner he wanted to finish the race and thought that the race should have been red flagged.[23][24][25] Mercedes team principal Toto Wolff defended the FIA's decision, stating that the FIA followed the rules while also citing the safety car procedure at the 2021 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.[26] The FIA later defended their decision to end the race with safety car citing the inability to move Ricciardo's car from the circuit on time.[27] FIA has also invited the team principals for a summit to discuss the regulation changes regarding the yellow flag and safety car on 12 September with no agreement reached between parties so far.[28]

His record bid got off to a slightly delayed start, however, as Yuki Tsunoda went off on the formation lap with a suspected power unit failure. There had to be an aborted start and, with the drivers effectively doing three formation laps, the race was shortened by two laps.
Though the final results sheet shows another Max Verstappen victory in another Red Bull 1-2, the Italian Grand Prix was one of the hardest-fought races of the 2023 Formula 1 season as Ferrari did its best to make things interesting.
Still, qualifying right behind team-mate Yuki Tsunoda, racing in the upper midfield and finishing 11th is a decent effort and an improvement on most of what Nyck de Vries offered AlphaTauri in the first half of the season.
Instead they touched lightly and both escaped without damage. A points finish should have still been possible, but it all went wrong when Hamilton came across Piastri in the braking zone for the second chicane, leaving Piastri in need of a new front wing and out of the points.
