Could Kim Kardashian become the first passenger in Lewis Hamilton’s untouched Ferrari F40?

Lewis Hamilton’s dream Ferrari F40 has arrived with a story almost as striking as the car itself. The Formula 1 superstar found an exceptionally low-mileage example that had spent years untouched, with its passenger door never opened. Now, that tiny detail has sparked an intriguing question among fans: could Kim Kardashian become the first person to sit beside Hamilton in the legendary Ferrari?Lewis Hamilton’s Ferrari F40 has an extraordinary historyHamilton did not simply want another rare Ferrari. He wanted one that felt untouched and carried a story of its own. That search eventually led him to an F40 that had travelled only 69 kilometres before being parked and covered.The detail makes the purchase particularly special. Ferrari’s F40 is already one of the most celebrated cars ever produced by the Italian marque. Built as a raw, lightweight performance machine, it was designed with speed and driving involvement at its heart. For a collector like Hamilton, finding an example that has barely been driven adds another layer of appeal.Hamilton explained that authenticity mattered more to him than simply owning a low-mileage F40.“I've been looking for one for a while and I wanted one with low mileage. I wanted one with a story, and lots have come up in auction over the past couple of years, some with low mileage, but just not particularly special, or maybe the paint's been redone or something like that."His newly acquired Ferrari appears to tick those boxes. According to the details shared by Hamilton, the previous owner drove it from Maranello to his home and then left it untouched. The car reportedly remained covered after that short journey.That means Hamilton has not only acquired a highly desirable supercar. He has also bought a remarkably preserved piece of Ferrari history.Could Kim Kardashian be Lewis Hamilton’s first Ferrari F40 passenger?The biggest curiosity surrounding Hamilton’s new Ferrari is not about its engine or performance. It is the untouched passenger seat.Hamilton revealed that the passenger door had never been opened. That means the first person to climb into that side of the car could become part of its unusual story. Fans have naturally connected that detail with Kim Kardashian, following the growing public interest in their relationship.Hamilton described exactly how unusual the car was when he found it.“I wanted to find the most authentic one and managed to come across this one that the owner had bought, drove it from Maranello to his home, 69 kilometres, and then parked it and never started it again. The passenger door had never been opened.”There is also another remarkable coincidence. During the restoration process, Ferrari’s team reportedly discovered that the engine carried the number 44, Hamilton’s famous Formula 1 racing number.For a driver who has spent his career surrounded by racing machinery, that detail must have made an already special purchase even more personal.Whether Kardashian will actually become the Ferrari F40’s first passenger remains speculation for now. Hamilton, however, has certainly found a car that combines rarity, history and a few details that seem almost too perfect to be true. And if its passenger door eventually opens for the first time, fans will be watching closely to see who gets the historic seat.Get the latest Sports News and Live updates. Download the TOI app.
