Fans have been reacting on social media after seeing Lewis Hamilton's first helmet design as a Ferrari driver.
After months of anticipation, seven-time Formula 1 world champion Hamilton finally began his first days at Ferrari this week.
The Brit first announced he was leaving Mercedes for Ferrari back in February of 2024, a move that sent shockwaves across the sporting world.
On Wednesday, ahead of his first testing session with Ferrari, Hamilton unveiled his first helmet design of the season.

The helmet included a yellow background, a colour he had previously used for his first outing with McLaren and Mercedes.
It also included the Ferrari badge, Hamilton's iconic number 44 and red trim.

Reacting on social media, fans felt that the dark red trims on the helmet could be a major clue to what the Ferrari cars will look like for 2025.
One fan said: "That dark red…"
Another tweeted: "At this point they might as well show us the livery."
A third fan added: "Ohhhhh you are noticing!"
Someone else wrote: "I hope the livery will be like that."
Earlier in the month, it was reported that Ferrari is set to go 'bold' with their new livery.
As reported by Auto Racer, via Planet F1, Ferrari is set to feature a darker, more intense shade of red than in previous years.
However, it has been suggested that the shade of red will not be as extreme as the one-off burgundy livery used during the 2020 Tuscan Grand Prix in Mugello, which was to celebrate the team's 1000th race in F1.
All 10 teams are set to unveil their new liveries during the inaugural F1 launch event in London next month.
The 2025 F1 season will begin in March with the Australian Grand Prix, which will be held around Albert Park in Melbourne on March 16.
