Hamilton Debuts SF-25 with Ferrari

Lewis Hamilton has officially debuted the new Ferrari SF-25 at Fiorano, aiming to reclaim the championship with teammate Charles Leclerc. This marks a significant season for Ferrari as they strive for success in Formula 1 after years of disappointment.


The seven-time Formula 1 world champion, Lewis Hamilton, is in Fiorano alongside young Monegasque talent Charles Leclerc, ready to bring Ferrari back to the top of motorsport competition. The SF-25, the new single-seater of the Italian team, is the first car developed by French engineer Loic Serra, who comes from Mercedes. Both drivers are focused on analyzing and improving the vehicle's performance with an eye toward the season starting on March 16 in Australia.

In statements published by Ferrari, Leclerc expresses his desire to become world champion, while Hamilton, during an event in London, claims to be focused on the present and the challenge ahead of him. This new chapter for Hamilton at Ferrari represents an opportunity to showcase his talent and contribute his vast experience to the team.

Ferrari president Jhon Elkann, along with team principal Frederic Vasseur, closely observed Hamilton during his first day in the SF-25 at the Fiorano track. The British driver appeared excited and full of energy for this new challenge, highlighting the importance of identifying and improving the weaknesses of the single-seater. The design of the new Ferrari stands out for its white and blue colors on the rear wing, as a result of sponsorships from HP and IBM respectively.

For his part, Leclerc also had the opportunity to test the SF-25 in Fiorano before the official tests in Bahrain at the end of February. With the enthusiasm and commitment of the entire team, Ferrari seeks to leave behind the disappointment of the previous season and regain the glory they so long for, hoping that this year will be Ferrari's year in Formula 1.
