The 2013 Italian Grand Prix (formally known as the 2013 Formula 1 Gran Premio d'Italia)[1] was a Formula One motor race held on 8 September 2013 at the Autodromo Nazionale di Monza in Monza, Italy.[2] The race was the 12th round of the 2013 season, and the 83rd running of the Italian Grand Prix.

Prior to the weekend, Red Bull revealed that Daniel Ricciardo would be driving alongside Sebastian Vettel in 2014, taking over from Mark Webber, who moved to the Porsche Sportscar programme.[3] Furthermore, Felipe Massa announced two days after the race that he would be leaving Ferrari at the end of 2013 after eight years with the team.[4] On the next day, the Scuderia announced that former Ferrari driver and 2007 champion Kimi Räikkönen would take Massa's place.[5]
