PHOTO: Lewis Hamilton wears historic Ferrari red suit for the first time!
A day after Lewis Hamilton visited the Ferrari F1 Team factory in Maranello - and thus the first pictures of the Briton as a driver for the legendary team - a new picture of the Briton was posted by both the team and the driver on social media. First the first time, the seven-time world champion wore the Scuderia's racing suit.
After arriving to Maranello on Monday, for the first time, Hamilton also wore the famous red suit of the Scuderia. "FIRST TIME IN RED," the driver wrote on X.

Hamilton is expected to be in action in a Ferrari F1 car for the first time on Wednesday, at the Fiorano circuit, completing a TPC (testing of a previous car) event. Together with Charles Leclerc, the duo will drive the team's 2022 and 2023 cars.
The new car will not be presented until 18 and 19 February. First, the team will be present at the F1 75 event in London, and then a day later, a filming day will also take place at Fiorano, before pre-season testing gets underway in Bahrain on 26-28 February.
