Racing fans have much to look forward to this Sunday, where seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton will debut for Ferrari for the first time at Formula 1 while he aims for an unprecedented eighth title.
He currently holds a joint record of seven F1 championship wins with retired German legend Michael Schumacher.
The Australian Grand Prix in Melbourne kickoff race starts at 3 p.m. local time. It has F1 fans buzzing about Hamilton’s performance.
Big deal
The 40-year-old Brit stunned fans last year when he left Mercedes after 12 years and six titles to join the sport’s most iconic team, Ferrari.
The move sent the Italian car maker’s stock soaring 12%.
While Hamilton is gunning for a record F1 victory, Ferrari hopes to reclaim championship glory for the first time since 2007.
The racer has become a cultural icon on and off the track, spinning fashion looks and producing films. Hamilton is the co-chair of the 2025 Met Gala and is co-producing the Brad Pitt movie F1.
His Ferrari unveiling photo broke the internet and is the most-liked F1 Instagram post ever.
