LEWIS HAMILTON unveiled his latest tattoo as he posed in Ferrari red for the first time.
The seven-time world champion made the shock move to leave Mercedes and join Ferrari ahead of the 2025 Formula One season.

He will hope the iconic red brings him fresh joy on the track this year.
But he has also got the colour inked on his skin with his new neck tattoo.
And there is a beautiful meaning behind the simple bodywork.
Hamilton, 40, was pictured wearing a white vest and black beanie hat with his tattoo artist Mr K.
And another pic showed a close-up of the new red ink of “11:11” in between four short lines.
Mr K captioned the post: “I’m so excited about your new chapter bro. For his Mum 11:11.”
And the hidden message is a nod to Hamilton’s mum Carmen who was born on November 11.
That sparked a wave of classy messages of support from fans on social media.

One wrote: “Sweet.”
Another said: “Nice work and a beautiful tribute.”
A third added: “Team LH approved – love this.”
And a final user replied: “Bellissimo. Amazing Work.”
On the same day as the news about his tattoo, Hamilton looked the part in his new Ferrari racing kit.
He took to Twitter with a photo decked out in the all-red outfit and wrote: “First time in red,” prompting one adoring supporter to proclaim: “This is fire.”
Hamilton – who had his first day with The Prancing Horse on Monday – is desperate to secure a record-breaking eighth world crown with his new team.
The Brit was cruelly denied No8 in farcical scenes in Abu Dhabi in 2021 as Max Verstappen clinched his maiden title on the final lap of the season.
The Red Bull star has reigned for the following three years, while Hamilton has won just two races across that time.
But after a more promising 2024 campaign, he will be hoping to match his talent and experience with a better Ferrari car than those produced by Mercedes in recent times.
After his unveiling at the Scuderia where he will partner Charles Leclerc under a strict new rule, Hamilton wrote: “There are some days that you know you’ll remember forever and today, my first as a Ferrari driver, is one of those days.
“I’ve been lucky enough to have achieved things in my career I never thought possible, but part of me has always held on to that dream of racing in red.
“I couldn’t be happier to realise that dream today.
“Today we start a new era in the history of this iconic team, and I can’t wait to see what story we will write together.”
