Soon after the Dutch Grand Prix at Zandvoort, Ferrari released their new outfit for their home race at Monza for the following weekend. The race suit is set to be inspired by the Le Mans-winning Ferrari team. Lando Norris has now brutally trolled their new colors during a livestream.
In a recent livestream hosted by Max Frewtrell, Lando Norris criticized the new colors of Ferrari. During the stream, he asked Max “Do you think the Ferrari stuff looks more like McDonald’s this year than it did last year?”. To this, Max replied, “Yeah I’m not a big fan of their suits”.

Last year, Ferrari introduced a unique color to their car and race suits. While they maintained the original red in the car, they added a dash of yellow to it as well. The Ferrari logo is majorly filled with the yellow color as it blends well with the red. The colors were supposedly the classic colors of Ferrari. Their race suits in 2022, were completely yellow for the Italian Grand Prix.
Ferrari has once again decide to use their classic colors for this year’s Italian Gran Prix. However, they have maintained the original red color in their race suit, but with a dash of yellow on the suit once again. The Ferrari 499p that won the Le Mans race earlier this year has inspired the new colors of the team.
Will Charles Leclerc drive for Ferrari in Le Mans?
There is no doubt that Ferrari has had more success in Le Mans than in Formula 1. Soon after Ferrari won Le Mans, Charles Leclerc was asked if he would be interested in driving in the Le Mans race. To this he said:
“It’s an incredible event. For sure one day in my life I want to tick that box. When it will be I don’t know.”
So far, Ferrari and Charles Leclerc have had a healthy partnership. Although it has not led to a lot of positive results. His healthy relationship with the team could help him get into the Le Mans car someday soon. But as of now, he and the Italian Constructor are more focused on improving their Formula 1 division so they can fight for the Championship once again.
Charles Leclerc says he “would love to” take part in the 24h of Le Mans race himself one day.

Although there are a few differences between the Formula 1 car and the Le Mans car, Charles Leclerc should be capable of handling the hypercar. There is no doubt that Charles Leclerc would be an incredible driver for Ferrari if he were to participate with the team.
The timeline for this is currently unclear. It could take some time for Charles to make his Le Mans debut. He and the team are more focused on winning a Formula 1 Championship at the moment. An ideal time for Charles to take part in the Le Mans race would be towards the end of his Formula 1 career.
Let’s see if Charles can win a Formula 1 Championship before making his Le Mans debut.
