Ferrari have been tipped to run with a "more extreme" livery for the F1 2025 season following Lewis Hamilton's arrival from Mercedes.

The first time Hamilton dons the famous red Ferrari colors and gets behind the wheel of one of its F1 cars will be the moment he has longed for throughout his career. It is also set to be a relatively low-key event.

Hamilton's mission is to win a world championship in his 40s, something that has not been done since Jack Brabham back in 1966, and has also only been done once since the great Juan Manuel Fangio became the oldest ever world champion with Maserati at the age of 46 in 1957.

Hamilton’s first Ferrari outings will come under the TPC (Testing of Previous Cars), which enables teams to run a used car that is at least two years old to complete a maximum of 1000km over four days.

According to a report from Autosport, Hamilton will enjoy his first on-track action for Ferrari on January 20th or 21st. Fred Vasseur’s team reportedly plan to use their entire 1,000km TPC allocation on their new recruit in January, giving the 39-year-old the best possible start to life in Maranello.

Max Verstappen has suffered a blow in comparison to his Formula 1 rival Lewis Hamilton following his Ferrari signing.

The 7-time World Champion, Lewis Hamilton, will rake in an enormous sum while representing Ferrari. The question is, will he be able to overtake Max Verstappen in earnings?
