Monday marked Lewis Hamilton's first day at Ferrari. Excitement filled the air as he met the engineers and began settling into his new environment. Working closely with his race engineer, Riccardo Adami, he fine-tuned the adjustments on his steering wheel, while also spending some time on Ferrari's simulator.

The Briton is in Maranello for a few days and is set to do a TPC test at the Fiorano track, reportedly on Wednesday, alongside his new teammate Charles Leclerc before moving to Spain for more testing later this month.

Hamilton marked the moment by sharing a photo of himself on social media next to a Ferrari F40 in front of Enzo Ferrari's house. The post, also translated into Italian for Ferrari’s Tifosi fans, showed how excited he was for this new chapter.

To remeber this iconic moment, Ferrari made a short video following Hamilton throughout the whole day. It shows him with the fans, who were waiting outside the factory, shaking hands with many workers as well as with the team principal Ferederic Vasseur and the CEO Benedetto Vigna.

In MotoGP, Monday was dedicated to Ducati Lenovo Team livery reveal for the 2025 season. Riders Francesco Bagnaia and Marc Marquez, with 11 world titles between them, presented the updated bike featuring technical improvements and a refreshed design.

On Saturday, it was Gresini Racing revealing their livery, which combines pastel blue with a striking new chrome finish that radiates confidence and style. The team’s refreshed lineup includes Alex Marquez and MotoGP rookie Fermin Aldeguer, bringing a renewed sense of energy and ambition.

Just one day before, Aprilia Racing unveiled their new bike, led by reigning champion Jorge Martin alongside teammate Marco Bezzecchi. Every aspect of the bike has been redesigned to deliver the best possible performance, featuring advanced aerodynamics, an improved chassis, and a new V4 engine.

Last in our recap but actually first to reveal their 2025 gear was Track House Racing, with a show hosted on Wednesday last week. The livery showcases vibrant blue and black with bright yellow accents, staying true to the Trackhouse style. This design is used on both their NASCAR Cup Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 cars and Aprilia RS-GP MotoGP bikes, reflecting the team’s unified look across racing series.
