Apart from being a seven-time world champion, Lewis Hamilton is also considered a fashion icon in the Formula 1 world. One of the top-paid drivers on the current grid, the Briton is currently enjoying his summer break in style in Mozambique.
Despite a slow start to the 2024 season, Lewis Hamilton maintained his composure through the first few races. With Mercedes-AMG bringing in crucial upgrades earlier than expected, both Hamilton and his teammate George Russell have started to extract more performance from the W15 car.In the last five races alone, the 38-year-old racing legend has managed to grab two wins (British and Belgian GPs) and two podium finishes (third place in Hungary and Spain). These gains have likely provided some relief to Hamilton going into the mid-season summer break.
Although Hamilton prefers having a low profile during his personal time, he made a grand entrance recently in Mozambique. The #44 driver arrived in style in a helicopter on Bazaruto Island to enjoy his summer break. A picture of him exiting the aircraft was shared by a Lewis Hamilton and Mercedes fan page on X.Here’s a look at the aforementioned post, captioned:
“Lewis Hamilton enjoying his summer holidays in Mozambique. Landed in Bazaruto Island today.”
