Oscar Piastri makes Kim Kardashian request amid Lewis Hamilton dating rumors

McLaren F1 driver Oscar Piastri has made a tongue-in-cheek request to one of his sponsors to use Kim Kardashian’s audio in a social media video.

Kardashian has found herself unexpectedly linked to the Formula 1 world in recent weeks, following growing speculation that she is dating seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton.

The reality TV star and business mogul has been seen alongside Hamilton at several high-profile events in 2026, fueling further rumors about their relationship and keeping both the F1 paddock and social media buzzing.

Hamilton refused to comment on Kardashian during pre-season testing in Bahrain this week, citing that it was his 'personal life'.

But McLaren star Piastri seems to be wanting to get involved in the rumours, following a hilarious request to Australian burger company Grill'd.

Following a Piastri promotion last year which fans believed had placed a 'curse' on the 24-year-old, Grill'd have launched another Piastri burger, with the Aussie racer advertising the new design with a video on TikTok.

While it was thought this could have been a complete coincidence in its timing with the Hamilton-Kardashian rumours, Grill'd commented on the post revealing that Piastri had specifically 'requested the audio'.

Do Lewis Hamilton and Kim Kardashian have history?

Lewis and Kim have moved in the same celebrity circles for years and have been friends for over a decade.

But 2026 is the first time there have been rumblings of their relationship taking a romantic turn.

The F1 star has famously avoided high-profile relationships, instead wanting to focus on racing in the hope that he can secure a record-breaking eighth drivers' championship before retiring from the sport.

Hamilton's most public relationship remains his eight-year on and off relationship with The Pussycat Dolls singer Nicole Scherzinger. Between their time as a couple from 2007 to 2015, Scherzinger was a frequent guest in the F1 paddock and was famously in the garage to celebrate Hamilton's maiden championship victory with McLaren in 2008.

During their time together, Hamilton and Scherzinger attended many celebrity events and in the past were pictured with Kim Kardashian and her ex-husband, Kanye West.

Having become a close friend of the family, Hamilton even once spent the Easter holidays with the Kardashians and West in their family home, with Kim's mother Kris Jenner also seen attending the 2018 Monaco Grand Prix in support of the F1 star.

Lewis and Kim also both recently attended Kate Hudson’s New Year’s Eve party in Aspen, Colorado, with the pair snapped leaving the event separately.
