The 2011 Italian GP2 Series round was a GP2 Series motor race held on September 10 and 11, 2011 at Autodromo Nazionale Monza, Italy. It was the ninth round of the 2011 GP2 season and the eighth round of the 2011 GP3 season. The race supported the 2011 Italian Grand Prix. This was the last championship round of the season for both series, but GP2 will race a non-championship round in Abu Dhabi.

In GP2 Series, after Romain Grosjean clinched Drivers' Championship in the previous round, the contest for the Teams' title continued as Barwa Addax was only 8 points ahead DAMS in the standings,^[1] but the Spanish team won the title after the last race.

In GP3 Series, Lotus ART was crowned Teams' Champion in Belgium, while in the Drivers' standings Valtteri Bottas, who held a five-point lead over his teammate James Calado before the round, with Nigel Melker, Alexander Sims and Adrian Quaife-Hobbs all having mathematically a chance,^[2] sealed the title with his victory in Race 1.^[3]
