Ferrari to Bring Upgraded Engine to Italian GP Under ADUO
Ferrari says the update will add 15 bhp and cut its power gap to Mercedes as it seeks a stronger result at a demanding circuit.
- Ferrari will introduce a power unit upgrade at this weekend's Italian Grand Prix, utilizing the Additional Development and Upgrade Opportunities system to improve performance at the power-hungry Monza circuit.
- The FIA deemed Ferrari more than 4% adrift on power compared to Red Bull, triggering ADUO eligibility. While the chassis remains competitive, the power unit has been the team's primary weakness this season.
- Team principal Fred Vasseur confirmed the arrival of this update, citing the importance of marginal gains; the upgrade aims to halve the deficit to Mercedes, the strongest complete package on the grid.
- Ferrari will run a Michael Schumacher-inspired livery featuring the 1996 F310 challenger design to mark 30 years since the seven-time world champion debuted with the Scuderia. Special race suits will commemorate the occasion.
- Vasseur noted that Ferrari seeks its first Italian Grand Prix win since Charles Leclerc's 2024 victory. The team prioritizes flawless execution at the demanding Monza circuit, drawing energy from the home crowd.
