🎉 Lewis Hamilton celebrated his 40th birthday with an exciting challenge ahead: becoming a world champion with Ferrari 🏎️🔴. In 2025, the British driver embarks on a new chapter, leaving behind his long-standing relationship with Mercedes to face one of the most pivotal moments in his Formula 1 career. A LEGEND WITH OVER 350 RACES With over 100 wins and 200 podiums, Hamilton is joining the prestigious Scuderia Ferrari—a dream that seemed distant just a year ago. He signed a multi-year contract in February 2024, committing to the Italian team for at least three seasons. His first private test is just around the corner, and both fans and experts eagerly anticipate seeing him behind the wheel of the red car. ❤️🏁 THE CHALLENGE FOR THE EIGHTH TITLE Hamilton aims to clinch his eighth world championship, a feat that eluded him in 2021 and would establish him as the most successful driver in F1 history. With Ferrari, he has a unique opportunity to return to the top, something he hasn’t achieved in recent seasons. His motivation is clear: to bring Ferrari back to the glory days that Michael Schumacher achieved two decades ago. 🌟 THE PARTNERSHIP WITH LECLERC Hamilton will share the garage with Charles Leclerc, one of the fastest drivers on the grid. This duo promises to be explosive but also presents a challenge for Hamilton, who must quickly adapt to the team and its new competitive environment. 🚦👥 IMPACT ON FERRARI AND FORMULA 1 Ferrari, the most iconic team in the sport, hasn’t won a drivers’ championship since 2007.
