Lewis in Red

The inside track on Hamilton's turbulent Ferrari campaign

Brought to you by Penguin.

Hamilton’s move to Ferrari was the F1 story of the decade. And now his progress is coming under the intense scrutiny of his 40+ million social media followers, the passionate tifosi and the world’s media, as he fulfils his boyhood dream of driving for the legendary Italian team that has been in the sport since its inception.

Drawing on his own first-hand observations and expertise, while also speaking to key in-world figures, including former teammates George Russell and Jenson Button, F1 author and journalist Ben Hunt will uncover the politics, the strategy, the ambition and raw emotion behind this historic coming together of two icons, and he’ll take a riveting, race-by-race look at how it’s all working out.

Hunt tells the inside story of what it is proving to be the British sporting superstar's final roll of the dice to win that record eighth world title, capturing in real time the thrills and challenges of Hamilton's campaign with the Scuderia team to rewrite the record books and make history.
