GRAND Prix ace Sir Lewis Hamilton freshens up ahead of his transfer to F1 team Ferrari — with a bushy red hairdo.
The seven-times world champ, 39, who will leave Mercedes at the end of the year, revealed his new look on a break in Brazil.
His tight plaited braids have been replaced with fluffy locks that billowed from under a sun hat.
A fan joked: “Maybe it’s a tribute to Ferrari’s classic red livery.”
Hamilton has been world champion a joint-record seven times – in 2008, 2014, 2015, 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2020.
In 2008, aged 23, he became the youngest ever world champion after five wins and a further five podiums took him to the title by a single point.
