Lewis Hamilton will seek to boost his hopes of an unprecedented eighth drivers' world championship with a record sixth Italian Grand Prix win on Sunday when he races on Ferrari's home tarmac.
As he bids to reduce local hero Kimi Antonelli's 59-point advantage -- the Italian having claimed six wins for Mercedes -- the 41-year-old seven-time champion has been given encouraging news.
Ferrari plans to introduce an updated power unit while Antonelli, 20, faces a grid penalty for taking a new engine.
