As has been commonplace over the years,﷽ Ferrari saved a key motorsport-related announcement for its home race at Monza, this time confirming the long-expected tie-up with grand prix newcomer🧔 Haas F1.

The relationship has been on the cards ever since Gene Haas agreed that he would be bringing his US-based operation into the top flight, and then added Haas Automation to Ferrari's list of sponsors, but has only now been officially confirmed byඣ the Scuderia via a statement which revealed that 'the multi-year♋ agreement is for the supply of the entire power unit starting from 2016'.

"We're delighted to announce this important strategic partner🐬ship with Haas F1 Team and to welcome an American player as a new entrant in F1," Ferrari team principal🍌 Marco Mattiacci said, "A few months ago we joined forces with Gene Haas on a commercial level and this is the natural next step of our growing relationship.

"While our objective is to reinfor🌟ce our power unit development programme for all our customer teams, we believe this new partnership has the potential to evolve beyond the traditional role of suppl🧔ying our power unit and all related technical services.

"United States cཧontinues to be one of the most important markets for Ferrari and it offers many interes💜ting opportunities. We look forward to supporting Haas F1 Team in its efforts to become a competitive player on the F1 grid."

Haas joins Sauber and Marussia on Ferrari's custome💝r roster, the British team having moved over from Cosworth power at the start of F1's latest♏ technical era in 2014.
