In his 16-year-old F1 career, Lewis Hamilton is rumored to have dated some of the most famous names. Back in 2015, the name that came up was that of Rihanna. Several media reports stated that the Barbadian singer was dating the Mercedes superstar, with the couple being spotted together at various parties and restaurants.
However, Hamilton has categorically denied any kind of romantic involvement with the ‘Umbrella’ hitmaker. When asked about the same, Hamilton had claimed that he had been friends with Rihanna for quite some time, and they do hangout occasionally, but there’s nothing more to it than that.

A$ap Rocky drops his latest collection at Las Vegas GP
This isn’t the first time that A$ap Rocky has been involved with Formula 1. The Grammy-nominated rapper was recently announced as the creative director of Puma with an emphasis on their F1 partnership.
This announcement came just weeks after Puma tied up with Formula 1 to become their exclusive licensee and trackside retailer at all the races. Rocky’s fashion sense is believed to bring a new perspective to the fashion surrounding the pinnacle of motorsports.
