The famous picture: Hamilton wanted a black Ferrari, Ferrari said no.

The famous picture: Hamilton wanted a black Ferrari, Ferrari said no.

Tóth Krisztián Márk |

Many people like Lewis Hamilton, and many do not. The latter group’s blood pressure rises just at the sight of the Brit because of the "moves" mentioned in the title.

Hamilton likes to push boundaries, and he did just that regarding Scuderia Ferrari's traditions. In the end, the photos were taken, and the seven-time world champion made a very good impression with his rather unusual, elegant appearance. Even his former boss and former success architect was stunned by Hamilton's stylishness, as Toto Wolff simply described Hamilton and the F40 composition as iconic.

Meanwhile, several Italian media outlets report that Hamilton made a specific request to Scuderia Ferrari that the F40 featured in the envisioned image must be black (by the way, who even thinks of this at a blood-red stable??) The racer wants to express his sensitivity towards social justice and the fight against discrimination with this. Of course, Ferrari would technically have been able to fulfill this request, but they immediately declined citing principled reasons. According to an insider, they wanted to send the message: "You can't be bigger than Ferrari!"
