Lewis Hamilton Unveils Ferrari F40 on His Debut Day in Maranello

A Memorable Day in Maranello

In the wake of a turbulent January for the legendary F40, Lewis Hamilton's first day at Ferrari brings some positivity. The official image captures Hamilton and the iconic F40 at the team's headquarters, signaling the beginning of a new chapter in the British racing driver's career. Dressed with the elegance of Enzo Ferrari himself, Hamilton poses alongside the revered car before meeting with key figures of the Ferrari team.

A Familiar Love for Ferraris

Hamilton's appreciation for road-going Ferraris is well-known, as he has previously owned multiple models including a LaFerrari. It comes as no surprise that he may soon endorse upcoming Ferrari releases such as the F80 hypercar or the Purosangue SUV. With rival Max Verstappen already starring in a Ford Mustang video, the anticipation for Hamilton's future ventures with Ferrari is high.

A Transition of Legends

Prior to his departure from Mercedes, Hamilton placed an order for a street-legal AMG equipped with an actual F1 engine, joining the exclusive group of 275 One buyers. On January 22, Hamilton will make his debut behind the wheel of a Ferrari F1 car, specifically the F1-75 used during the 2022 season. Charles Leclerc will also be present during the testing session in Fiorano, with further testing planned later in Spain.
