The team posted about it on social media on Friday, describing it as 'a suit that embodies a night under the Singapore lights'. It's proper eye-catching stuff, and honestly, it's the kind of one-off kit that'll have fans wanting to grab a piece of F1 history.

Here's the thing though - Lewis Hamilton's nowhere to be seen in any of Ferrari's announcement posts. The veteran teammate will be racing in traditional Ferrari red while Leclerc rocks the all-black look. This isn't the first time Scuderia's done the alternate suit for just one driver either. Back at Monaco earlier this year, Leclerc wore an all-white race suit and helmet combo while Hamilton stuck with the classic red. Looks like Ferrari's got a pattern going on here.
