This weekend's Italian Grand Prix means an opportunity to add another unique stamp to your Fan Passport.
The Monza stamp features a playful and charming illustration of a cartoon cat riding a vintage blue scooter. The style is minimalistic, with the cat drawn in simple lines and bold shapes, giving it a retro feel that complements the scooter's classic design. Scooters, particularly the iconic Vespa, hold a special place in Italian culture, symbolising freedom, style, and practicality. They are not just a mode of transportation but a cultural emblem that represents the Italian way of life — where elegance meets efficiency.
In Italy, scooters are synonymous with urban mobility, often seen zipping through the narrow streets of cities like Rome and Milan. They add an extra layer of cultural significance, connecting the excitement of the race with the everyday charm of Italian life. The scooter, ridden by the cartoon cat, serves as a nod to Italy's rich heritage and its love for stylish, yet functional, design. The cat's wide eyes and content expression add a lighthearted touch, likely capturing the excitement and fun associated with the race.
