FILE - Ferrari's Lewis Hamilton celebrates after the race of Formula One Barcelona-Catalunya Grand Prix at the Catalunya Circuit in Montmelo, near Barcelona.
Ferrari driver Lewis Hamilton has said that winning at the Monza Grand Prix with Scuderia would be "phenomenal" as Ferrari hope to ride on the support of the home fans and the recent upgrades they have made to the SF-26 ahead of the Italian GP.
Hamilton has won the Monza GP five times, including four times with Mercedes and once with McLaren, but the Briton has not clinched victory with Ferrari at their home race, having finished sixth in his first year with the Maranello-based outfit in 2025.
"There is a first ahead of me, in the sense that if I were to win, I would go into new territory, winning for the first time with Ferrari at Monza. It would be phenomenal," Hamilton told the media on Thursday.
"The pressure's high. You want to do it for the team. Many of them will come to this race."
