Ferrari are among the potential contenders in F1 and can now call upon Lewis Hamilton - but not too long ago they were traumatised from the impact of finishing as runners-up to Red Bull in 2022

Lewis Hamilton isn't about to let age stop him pursuing an historic eighth Formula 1 title with his new team Ferrari. An eighth world title would be an all-time record but winning after turning 40 has been a challenge for even the greatest drivers in F1 history.

Lewis Hamilton appeared in a Ferrari car on the streets of Milan on Thursday as anticipation builds towards his first F1 race for the Scuderia. The 40-year-old, who has moved from Mercedes after 12 years and six world titles, has received a rapturous reception from Ferrari fans since he joined in January.
