    All kidding aside, the FIA/Stewards could easily solve this BS by what they consider ''significantly''.

    IF Mclaren finishes 1-2, they should do a side-by-side parade up to the podium as Mercedes did it in 2018 to remind their Italian colleagues at the Temple of Speed.

    RB should be fast with the car trimmed out here, I would like to see how Max would perform in the VCARB(?) at tracks where RB struggles.

    The Italian GP trophies.

    These trophies are made from Aluminium, designed by Nico Vascellari, and named "Chimera". They represent 'the movement of the three fastest creatures in the air, in water and on land, the peregrine falcon, the sail fish and the cheetah respectively.'

    Hadjar's Zandvoort Trophy didn't last long ! :p

    While I understand the history of the porcellain trophies in Hungary and the Netherlands, it is a bad idea for the rough world of a F1 podium.

    Bring back the rubber Gorilla from France. Undestructable. On second thought: Nah, don't bring them back.

    % are your friend for any kind of comparisons.

    Think about the early years of F1 GPs: at times 8 races per season

    Ferrari reveals Lauda tribute livery for F1's Italian GP

    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.

    I guess only livery changes and not a true Lauda make over that makes the car goes faster.

    Special liveries always bring bad luck, but I have to admit this looks rad.

    No team is really investing in speed for the rest of the 2025 season.......of course.
