At the Monza GP 2026 the Scuderia Ferrari will pay homage to the Ferrari F310, the renowned car driven by Michael Schumacher in 1996. 

30 years after his first Ferrari victory in Italy, the Scuderia’a SF26 entries at Monza will be decorated with the iconic seven stars on the nose, one for each World Championship won by the German driver and an unmistakable reference to his helmet.

The cars are painted the same “red” as the F310, brighter than the Rosso SF26, adopted by Ferrari that season for better visibility on television. 

The font of the race numbers are tributes to the Schumacher era, which is also recalled in the logo of his personal merch visible on the engine cover.

Includes Driver Figure in Cockpit

Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc will also sport special-edition retro suits matching the classic 1996 livery. 

September 4, 2026: This morning, BBR announced 1/43 scale versions of the Michael Schumacher Tribute Ferraris competing in this weekend’s Italian Grand Prix at Monza. They will be available with or without a driver figure. Details HERE!

Two new books published by Quarto under their Motorbooks imprint are set to be released in September.

‘Motorsports Mavericks’ is lavishly illustrated with the photography of the legendary Pete Biro and will be released on September 8.

Paging through our advance copy brought back a flurry of memories of the great drivers, machines and races from the 1960’s and 1970’s, the era when I fell in love with the sport.

I remember Biro’s photographs from the magazines of the day and to see them put together with an excellent George Levy text in a high quality book like this is a dream come true.

A must have for just $50.00.

Formula 1 Champions: Car by Car’ by Stuart Codling will be available on September 22.

An informative text by Stuart Codling gives a synopsis of the season, profiling the Champion driver and his machine along with technical information.

The book features an Appendix listing the individual race results of each season’s World Champion and an extensive Index.

An excellent book at an attractive price ($50.00) for new fans interested in the history of Grand Prix racing and for those of us who have followed F1 for decades.
