Nicki lauda

Italian Grand Prix: Ferrari have revealed the special livery that Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton’s SF-25s will wear at this year’s Italian Grand Prix to celebrate 50 years since Niki Lauda's championship-winning season. It also marks the first race at Monza for seven-time World Champion Hamilton since joining the Scuderia.

Featuring more prominent white on the engine covers, alongside retro numbers and wheel covers, the car pays homage to the colourway of the Ferrari 312T that Niki Lauda took to the 1975 Drivers’ Championship and which earned the team the Constructors’ title in the same year.

Ferrari head to Monza off the back of a tough outing at the Dutch Grand Prix, with both Hamilton and Leclerc retiring after crashes – although the drivers had been buoyed by the improved pace of their car as the weekend progressed.
