This weekend, Lewis Hamilton drove his last race for Mercedes at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, finishing in P4 to end his 2024 season and his 12-year stint with the team. But history aside, the paddock fashion king used his fits to remind us of his move to Ferrari next season.

It’s relaxed, oversized, and fits right into the F1 ace’s mix of luxury and streetwear that he’s got dialed.

He rocked a solid red roomy band collar shirt with matching baggy pants and contrasting black work boots. To round out the fit, he threw in an Italian touch with a pair of black square-framed sunglasses from Gucci.
