Hamilton has suffered yet more woes with his Mercedes machinery this year, with an engine failure forcing him to retire in Australia and registering a highest finish of seventh so far, coming in the season-opener in Bahrain.

The Brit will make the move to Ferrari from the 2025 season on a multi-year deal, partnering Charles Leclerc.

And he continued to mark his impact on the fashion world as he attended the Rimowa photocall in Seoul.

Hamilton is an ambassador for the German suitcase brand, and posting on his Instagram account, he posed for a picture with South Korean K-Pop star Rose, with the caption ‘Brilliant night’, followed by ‘thank you Seoul’ written in Korean.
