Ferrari has revealed a special livery for Formula 1's Italian Grand Prix, paying tribute to Niki Lauda's first world championship victory with the team 50 years ago.

Ferrari often runs a one-off look for its home race at Monza, and 2025 is no different, with a big dollop of white added to the scarlet red and black.

The team is paying homage to the paint design of the Ferrari 312T, which Lauda used to win his first of three world championships in 1975.

Lauda sealed that title on home soil at Monza 50 years ago by finishing third while team-mate Clay Regazzoni won the race.

The shade of red this weekend will match that of the Ferrari 312T, the drivers' names will be written in cursive script, as in 1975, and the race numbers will be black on a white rectangular background.

On Sunday, the entire Ferrari team will wear special kit inspired by 1975 with drivers Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton donning special race suits, shoes and helmets.

Ferrari is hoping to bounce back at Monza, where it won last year, after a disastrous double DNF at the Dutch GP last weekend.

But Hamilton is already starting the weekend on the back foot, having picked up a five-place grid penalty to be served at Monza for a pre-race yellow flag infringement at Zandvoort.
