Formula One fans think that Ferrari may have made a massive mistake with Lewis Hamilton's official team gear.
Hamilton broke the internet last year after he announced his shock move from Mercedes to join rival team Ferrari for the 2025 season.
Ahead of the start of the new season next month, Hamilton has been carrying out a series of testing and practice sessions with his new team in Italy and Spain.

And as official photos of Hamilton's team gear have started to emerge, Formula One fans have agreed that there is one key issue.
Ferrari took to social media on Tuesday to show off both Hamilton and teammate Charles Leclerc in their official team kit for the 2025 season.
Both men modelled an iconic Ferrari red polo shirt proudly showing off the team badge as well as the logos of the team's sponsors, while Leclerc also showed off a Ferrari cap with a similar design, with his driver number also included.

But, it's safe to say that fans were not happy about one aspect of the kit, as they took to social media to point out that the HP logo on the back of Hamilton's kit was actually larger than the Ferrari one.
Reacting to the images, one fan commented: "The HP logo is bigger than anything else there. It stands out and not in a good way."
While another agreed, adding: "Those logos make the kit look hideous."

And another pointed out that they were disappointed that the colour blue feature on the iconic red shirt, writing: "I’d buy it myself if the hp logo wasn’t the blue version."
Nevertheless, fans have been impressed by how Hamilton appears to be getting on in the most recent set of laps times set during the the Pirelli 2026 tyre test.
As reported by Planet F1, after 87 laps around the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya, Hamilton's best lap time of 1:15.93, 0.13s faster than teammate Leclerc, who managed 86 laps of the circuit.
However, lap times during testing are not necessarily reflective of what will happen on track when the lights go out, and fans will likely have to wait until the 2025 season gets underway next month to see how Hamilton will really perform with his new team.
