The new phase of Lewis Hamilton in Formula 1 has begun with a historic change: the seven-time world champion has swapped his long-standing partnership with Mercedes-Benz for Ferrari and, along with his new car, now resides in one of the most iconic houses in Modena—the former residence of Enzo Ferrari.
Hamilton becomes only the second driver in history to live in this legendary property, following in the footsteps of Michael Schumacher. Interestingly, both drivers share the record for the most F1 titles, a tie that Hamilton hopes to break this season.
The house preserves the essence of traditional Italian architecture, featuring antique furniture, exposed wooden beams, and a retro touch. However, Ferrari’s presence is evident in the vibrant design details. The brand’s signature red appears in various elements, such as a glossy dining table and exclusive artwork. In the living room, orange chairs and retro-style lighting enhance a sophisticated and contemporary atmosphere.
On the exterior, the residence maintains its classic charm, with a brick and stucco façade and the iconic tiled roof. Ferrari red is visible on the front door and window shutters, while the Scuderia’s yellow flag holds a prominent place on the property.
Upon his arrival in Maranello on January 20, Hamilton expressed his excitement:
“There are days you know you’ll remember forever, and today, my first as a Scuderia Ferrari HP driver, is one of them. I’ve always dreamed of racing in red, and I couldn’t be happier to make it a reality. I’m excited for this new era and committed to giving my all for the team and the fans. Today, we begin a new chapter in the history of this iconic team.”
With a new home and a new challenge ahead, Hamilton embarks on his Ferrari journey in style.
