Prior to the 1993 Italian Grand Prix race weekend, the McLaren team had informed Andretti that this race would be his last race with the team due to his poor performances and would be replaced by Mika Hakkinen.

Ironically Andretti's this race happened to be his final Formula One and also turn out to be his best result with a third-place finish. It was indeed a farewell race finishing at podium starting from 9th in the grid.

Michael Mario Andretti currently is the team owner of the Andretti Autosport, which has won four IndyCar Series championships and five Indianapolis 500 races. Statistically, he is one of the most successful drivers in the history of American open-wheel car racing. He has amassed 42 race victories, which is the most by any in the CART era and fourth-most all time. Michael's father is a racing legend, Mario Andretti, a race car driver who became a three-time IndyCar champion and the 1978 Formula One World Champion.
