This year, Lewis Hamilton will make his debut in Formula 1 with the Ferrari team. Before the start of the season, the driver decided to fulfill a childhood dream by recreating a scene from his favorite movie, Ferris Bueller's Day Off. In the scene, Hamilton plays the role of the valet in a parking lot, driving a Ferrari 259 GT California and fleeing with actor Edward Norton.
In an Instagram post, Lewis Hamilton mentioned that this tribute to the iconic film was a celebration of his first season with Ferrari, highlighting the technology, production, and planning required to recreate the scene accurately. The driver expressed his excitement at obtaining the exact car he had always dreamed of since seeing the movie.
In his 19th season in Formula 1, Hamilton will race for Ferrari, leaving behind his time with McLaren and Mercedes. Despite having won seven world championships, Hamilton has not secured the title in the last four years and will seek to reclaim the crown with the Italian team.
The final message of the clip that Hamilton shared on social media says: "For all the kids who dream of the impossible." The driver thanks his followers and highlights the energy and excitement he hopes to bring to the tracks in this new phase of his career. He also thanks Edward Norton for joining him in this exciting adventure in honor of one of his favorite childhood movies, Ferris Bueller's Day Off.
