In Monza, Ferrari cars will be painted in honor of Schumacher.
In recent years, the Ferrari team has developed a tradition of holding their home Grand Prix in Italy with cars featuring a special livery. This was the case in 2022, 2023, 2024, and 2025. The stage in Monza this year will be no exception.
Officially, Ferrari has not announced anything yet, but the publication Autoracer reports that during the upcoming race weekend, the livery of Charles Leclerc's and Lewis Hamilton's cars will be dedicated to the first year of Michael Schumacher's performances for Scuderia. According to available information, the SF-26 will be styled after the Ferrari F310 from 1996.
The livery will primarily feature a combination of red and black colors with gold rims, although the modern version will not be an exact replica of the livery from 30 years ago.
Michael Schumacher began racing for Ferrari in 1996, having previously won two titles with Benetton. Success did not come immediately, but over the years, the German driver, along with the team, laid the foundation for future victories. From 2000 onwards, Schumacher won five consecutive championship titles in the individual standings, while Ferrari secured six Constructors' Cups in a row, starting from 1999.
Thirty years later, Ferrari plans to celebrate the beginning of its collaboration with Michael Schumacher in Monza. For the team and fans, this will symbolize a return to the start of an era that had a tremendous impact not only on the history of Scuderia but also on the entire Formula 1.
The official presentation of the SF-26 livery for the Italian Grand Prix is expected next week.
