The seven-time champion has now officially joined the Scuderia after 12 years of competing with the Silver Arrows, where he earned six of his seven drivers' titles.

Hamilton's entry to his new team has sparked conversation over who Ferrari will prioritise as their No 1 driver- the 40-year-old legend of the sport or his 26-year-old team-mate who has remained loyal to the outfit since 2019.
