Lewis Hamilton Wins First Ferrari Race, Wants Red Cockpit

Lewis Hamilton secured his first victory driving for Ferrari at the Spanish Grand Prix in Barcelona, echoing Michael Schumacher’s inaugural win for the team 30 years earlier. After the win, Hamilton reflected on his childhood dream of racing in a red‑livered Ferrari and noted that his current cockpit is white. He said, “My cockpit is actually white, which I don’t really like; I want it to be red like Michael’s.” The driver also mentioned that the new white engine cover and the prominence of HP’s blue sponsor colours have altered the traditional red appearance of the Scuderia.

Hamilton’s win marks his debut triumph with Ferrari and reinforces the team's resurgence, while his comments highlight ongoing fan interest in the visual identity of the car.
