Hamilton has previously worked with Japanese artist Takashi Murakami on designs for his brand, with the most recent teaser post revealing very little regarding the next collection's theme.

'Plus 44' rarely releases new merchandise, and Hamilton's fans were quick to reveal their excitement in the comments section with one fan @albany.b11 writing “I NEED to get something this time around.”

Others continued to reveal how ‘excited’ they were, as the champion keeps his fans hanging by a thread for his latest drop.

"OMD LETS GOOO ??" another fan commented, whilst others even called for the Mercedes star to host a pop-up store at the next race in Austin.
