Lewis Hamilton: the coat worn as a sign of respect for Enzo Ferrari

Delving into books and watching footage of Ferrari’s history, Lewis was struck by the elegance of Enzo Ferrari, often photographed in a coat, jacket, and tie. Hamilton wanted to pay tribute to the iconic style of the founder, showing respect for the place he was visiting for the first time.

There will inevitably be those who frown upon Hamilton’s approach, comparing it to that of past drivers. But it doesn’t matter—there’s no single way to show respect for a figure, a place, or a legend. The “Commendatore”-style coat carried a clear message: I know where I am, I’ve read this history, and I hope to write new chapters together.

Championship or not, 7-window symbolism, designer suit- the Lewis signing is already working well for them, haven't seen this much buzz around Ferrari in a while.

Let's hope they can up their game on the track as well. About Leclerc, what do you guys think? Will this be a fruitful relationship (have never seen an amicable relationship between two top F1 drivers on the same team though!), or will it end in teammate battles on and off track?

Yeah these cars work best when you use a "U" line through it rather than V-ing out the corner with late braking & early acceleration.

In slow corners you have chronic understeer coupled with an unstable rear end.

That said this season is shaping up well, Max with the weakest car between the three will need to drive even better then ever and any DNF will severely hit his chances going for another WDC title, until redbull pulls a rabbit from the hat. I am also looking forward to see what changes are coming to Aston Martin with newey there now, will that make Alonso a strong contender.

I really hope Alonso can be up there I just want to see him win again. Its been 11+ years now , I was in 5th grade the last time he won at catalunya

Ferrari is getting an almost immediate return on its
investment in Lewis Hamilton after a photo shared on
Tuesday provided massive value for the team's
sponsorship roster. First shared by Hamilton himself on Tuesday evening, an analysis of the photo and its reach on social media platform X underlines how lucrative his arrival will be for the Scuderia. In the original post, Sponsorlytix highlighted the importance of logo placement in helping achieve the astounding figure for Ferrari's sponsors. "Every logo placement on Lewis's kit delivers incredible value, showcasing the synergy between athletes' social media presence and team sponsors," it read.

I'm incredibly excited to see what Hamilton can do this season. Huge fan of his, even if he doesn't win a championship I think Ferrari will build a good enough car to gurantee a few Lewis race wins at least, and the first time hearing him speak Italian on radio will be a memorable moment.

F40 pics go incredibly hard btw, already planning to print it and frame it for my room.

Hamilton's accident on the second day of the Barcelona test with the Ferrari SF-23.

The English driver has been unharmed from the crash, according to Italian press
The car has been quite damaged

This morning, Wednesday 29, at approximately 11:00 a.m., the seven-time champion has suffered an accident.

Hamilton, according to the Italian edition of Motorsport, lost control of the SF-23 in the final stretch of the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya and crashed into the barriers. The track's rescue protocol was activated ipso facto and, fortunately, the driver is fine.

According to the aforementioned media, the car has been quite damaged and that has caused a delay in the work program. Charles Leclerc was scheduled to go out for a run in the early afternoon, but the repair could take several hours.

Do you get sky commentary on FanCode? I heard it also had issues streaming. Also can you replay races just after they finish?

I have used F1 TV Pro in 2024, it’s great. Worth is like beauty which is in the eye of the beholder, in this (F1 TV Pro) case, buyer. You have bought it, now enjoy viewing on it. You won’t regret the purchase in any way.

Cheers
