Fans are all saying the same thing after Lewis Hamilton was unveiled at the F1 75 event taking place at London’s 02 Arena on Tuesday.

Hamilton, 40, cut a relaxed figure at the sport’s launch event ahead of the 2025 campaign, which gets underway in Melbourne, Australia, between March 14 and 16.

So much so that eagle-eyed fans spotted him and new Ferrari teammate Charles Leclerc playing online chess while the event was going on.

On Tuesday evening, the Brit was unveiled in front of the lucky fans and media gathered inside the arena.

The noise was deafening, and Hamilton took in his surroundings before putting a thumb up in approval of the raucous atmosphere.

“How you doing, London?” he said.

“Good evening, everyone. Such a great night to be here amongst all of you. I think the word that I’m thinking of is invigorating… I feel so full of life [and] so much energy because everything’s new.

“And [I’m] just focused on what’s up ahead – I’m so proud to be part of the team.”

Fans on social media seemingly all made a similar observation after watching a video clip posted to F1’s official X account.

One said: "Goat is back in red."

Another added: "Red suits him well."

A third commented: "So weird to see him in red."

A fourth explained: "I've never seen someone look this good in red ever. Lewis Hamilton man."

While another even compared his switch to Ferrari to Tom Brady's move from the New England Patriots to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 2020, they said: "Seeing Lewis Hamilton in red will take time to get used to.

"It’s like seeing Tom Brady in a Bucs uniform."

Hamilton, a seven-time F1 world championship winner, will be hoping to win his eight title this campaign. If he were to achieve the historic feat he would become the sports record world title winner, as he is currently tied with former Ferrari driver Michael Schumacher.

However, he will be in for some tough competition, as Red Bull's Max Verstappen is aiming for his fifth consecutive championship crown having dominated the sport since 2021.
