Ferrari is heading into its home race at Monza with renewed confidence after a surprisingly strong performance at last weekend's Dutch Grand Prix. Charles Leclerc achieved a second straight podium finish, while teammate Carlos Sainz Jr. moved up from 10th to place fifth, exceeding expectations.
This comes at a crucial time as the team has been struggling for pace but is planning car upgrades for the Italian Grand Prix. Leclerc remains cautious, stating that while they hope for a podium finish, a win is unlikely.
The Monza circuit has also seen significant changes, including a complete resurfacing and modifications to iconic kerbs, which have received mixed reactions from drivers. Meanwhile, Ferrari drivers will don black racing suits in a nod to carbon fibre advancements in racing car construction.
