  • The SF-25 adopts 1975 cues with a deeper red, white engine covers, black numbers on white rectangles, a metallic silver rear wing, period-style wheels and cursive driver name script.
  • Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc will wear retro race suits and helmets, with the team switching to a period-inspired blue kit developed with Puma for the weekend.
  • Hamilton unveiled a special bright yellow and white helmet carrying Lauda’s name for his first Italian Grand Prix in Ferrari colours.
  • Former Ferrari driver Jean Alesi is scheduled to drive a 1995 412 T2 in a pre-race demonstration run.
