Lewis Hamilton Embarks on Ferrari Chapter: A Historic Union in F1 and wears Ferrari red for the first time

Lewis Hamilton, the seven-time Formula 1 champion, officially donned Ferrari’s iconic red for the first time on Monday, marking the start of his highly anticipated journey with the legendary Scuderia. Arriving at Ferrari’s headquarters in Maranello, Hamilton was greeted with the full fanfare befitting a driver of his caliber.

A Legendary Beginning in Maranello

The day commenced with ceremonial photographs at the Fiorano track, where Hamilton, dressed in Ferrari red, stood against the backdrop of Enzo Ferrari’s house and the square dedicated to Michael Schumacher, the only other driver to have claimed seven world championships. The occasion was steeped in symbolism, as Hamilton joined a lineage of F1 legends, stepping into one of the most storied teams in motorsport history.

Accompanied by Ferrari CEO Benedetto Vigna and Team Principal Fred Vasseur, Hamilton toured the facilities, including the office where Enzo Ferrari once orchestrated his team’s successes. Adding a personal touch to the milestone, a Ferrari F40—Hamilton’s self-professed favorite supercar—was brought to the event, a gesture that highlighted the emotional gravity of the day.

Hamilton Reflects on His Dream Realized

In an emotional statement, Hamilton acknowledged the significance of this new chapter in his career:

“There are some days that you know you’ll remember forever, and today, my first as a Scuderia Ferrari HP driver, is one of those days. Part of me has always held on to that dream of racing in red. I couldn’t be happier to realise that dream today.”

Hamilton expressed gratitude to Ferrari leadership, including Chairman John Elkann, and committed himself to delivering for the team and its passionate global fanbase.

Laying the Groundwork for 2025

Monday’s events were just the beginning. On Tuesday, Hamilton engaged in technical briefings and strategic meetings to align with Ferrari’s plans for the 2025 season. The collaboration comes with high expectations as Hamilton aims to end Ferrari’s championship drought and potentially clinch his record-breaking eighth title.

A Partnership for the History Books

Hamilton’s move to Ferrari signals more than just a change in team—it represents the convergence of Formula 1’s most decorated driver and its most iconic team. As the 2025 season approaches, fans and pundits alike eagerly anticipate the results of this unprecedented partnership.

With Hamilton’s unparalleled experience and Ferrari’s storied legacy, the duo has all the ingredients to etch a new chapter into Formula 1 history. The countdown to a potentially transformative season for both Hamilton and Ferrari has officially begun.
