Ferrari will run a tribute livery at this weekend's Italian Grand Prix to honor Michael Schumacher, who won five of his seven world championships with the team. The cars driven by Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc will feature design elements inspired by the 1996 Ferrari F310, including gold accents on the wheels and seven stars to commemorate the German's career achievements. Former Ferrari driver Sebastian Vettel will also perform a celebratory lap in one of Schumacher’s title-winning cars on Sunday. Ahead of the event, Lewis Hamilton expressed pride in representing the team at their home race. The team has also introduced a power unit upgrade for the Monza weekend to address performance gaps. Meanwhile, championship leader Kimi Antonelli will serve a grid penalty for exceeding his engine allocation, forcing him to start the race from the back of the field.
