A special day
That touch on the Prancing Horse emblem of the F40, shared by Lewis Hamilton in today's Instagram stories, symbolizes the passion the 40-year-old from Stevenage has always had for Ferrari. It's no secret that the English champion has long been a client of the company—consulting with Piero Ferrari on car purchases—and that he had a fondness for the Scuderia from childhood, as shown by photos of him wearing a red helmet during his karting days.

John Elkann's joy
As reported yesterday, Ferrari president John Elkann was present on Lewis Hamilton's first day at the factory, accompanying him on tours of various departments and during interactions with fans. Some remarks from the head of Ferrari about the seven-time champion's debut were collected by *La Stampa* and featured in today's edition of the Turin daily: "Lewis is Ferrari. It's as if he's always been part of Ferrari."

The Fiorano debut schedule
Italian daily newspaper *Corriere dello Sport* revealed details about tomorrow's schedule, where Lewis Hamilton will drive the 2023 SF-23 at Fiorano in the morning. In the afternoon, it will be Charles Leclerc's turn on the track. The Monegasque driver is expected at the factory today to greet the team ahead of the new Formula 1 season.
