Lewis Hamilton will make his first public appearance in Ferrari colours tonight as he takes to the stage at London's O2 arena - but fans will have to wait to see the British racing superstar's new car.
The seven-time world champion will face British fans for the first time since his shock winter move to the Italian team.
The historic moment comes after Hamilton has spent recent weeks preparing at Ferrari's Maranello base in Italy.
The British driver will appear before a sold-out crowd of 15,000 fans at the F1 75 Live event.

However, spectators will not get to see the actual 2025 car designs during the London showcase.
