Ferrari F1 drivers Leclerc and Sainz took part in the Italian GP in special edition Giallo Modena yellow clothing supplied by official partner Puma.
The drivers arrived in the Monza paddock on Thursday sporting a unique yellow team T-shirt, which was part of a collection available for fans to buy online and via selected PUMA stores and Ferrari boutiques.
It was a unique new one-off look for the team and drivers and, asked how he felt wearing yellow, Leclerc said: “I like it. It’s a bit strange to see me wear yellow with the Ferrari logo but it’s cool, for this race it is really good. The shade of yellow, known as Giallo Modena, has been on the Ferrari badge for the whole of the marque’s existence and draws its roots from the shield of the city of Modena, where Scuderia Ferrari was formed in 1929.
In the late 1960s and early 1970s, yellow also began to feature regularly on the F1 Ferraris, with the 312 F1-68 featuring two stripes on the sides of the car, and in the 1980s the mechanics and engineers wore yellow shirts and polo shirts.
