The Spaniard achieved a total of two victories at the Autodrome of Monza, the first in 2007 with McLaren and the second in 2010 with Ferrari. Apart from these two summits, the man from Oviedo stood on the podium on four other occasions, the last in 2013 where he finished 2nd, 5 seconds from victory.

However, since then he has only had a string of quits, unable to finish between 2014 and 2018 for different reasons. something changed 2021, where he not only saw the checkered flag but ended up in it 8th place.

2022 presented itself with a great opportunity for a podium finish. Many were penalized in front of him and Alpine looked quick, but the team chose not to change components, which was a mistake in the end. Despite starting in 6th place, it quickly became clear that Alonso was in trouble as he did not show good pace. So, halfway through the race, he was forced to retire due to mechanical problems.
