Ferrari's new social media post about Lewis Hamilton's arrival: was the countdown started on Sunday explained? Today, Monday, January 20, the seven-time world champion arrived in Maranello. His schedule included a first meeting with Frédéric Vasseur and Benedetto Vigna, followed by a tour of the factory and Fiorano, continuing into Tuesday.
This is a historic moment for Ferrari and Formula 1: the most successful team and driver in history unite to bring the Prancing Horse back to the top of the sport. Lewis Hamilton arrives in Maranello after nearly a year of waiting since the announcement last February. It's an occasion to remember for all Ferrari fans, who are still waiting for the first photos of Lewis Hamilton in the Ferrari suit.
Some speculated that this might be the surprise hinted at on Sunday, with a social media teaser featuring a clock set to 4:44 PM on an unspecified "25," seemingly foreshadowing big news. The truth is that fans will need to wait a little longer for the photos in red: the countdown from Maranello referred to something else.
