“Lewis Hamilton collaborating with a fashion designer worth over $1 billion”- Mercedes star wore $4000 dollar apparel to Silverstone paddock ahead of British GP
Lewis Hamilton drove brilliantly in Silverstone last weekend, but he also stole the show away from the track with his fashion.
Hamilton is known for arriving on the grid in style. Over the years, we have seen him dress up for a race in unique styles, which caught the attention of all those around him.
The seven-time World Champion admitted earlier that he is a huge fan of fashion. Away from the world of F1, he loves to keep himself engaged in this field, to help with his focus.

Ahead of the British GP this weekend, the Brit arrived on track wearing Valentino’s apparel. The total valuation of his Silverstone outfit sums up to about $4000 dollars, and it left fans amazed yet again.
Lewis Hamilton with a statement performance at the British GP
Mercedes did not go off to the best of starts in 2022. Hamilton in particular was struggling to find pace in his W13, and was being outperformed by teammate George Russell.
However, over the last few weeks he has shown why he’s one of the best drivers of all time. After a tough Azerbaijan GP due to back pain from porpoising, he bounced back in Montreal with a well deserved P3 finish.
The fight in Silverstone last weekend was expected to be between Red Bull and Ferrari. After Max Verstappen picked up damage in the early stages, it seemed like Ferrari would get an easy 1-2. Hamilton had other ideas, as he proved that he had the pace to win the race.
He may have won the race quite easily, had Esteban Ocon’s DNF not brought out a safety car. Regardless, he finished P3 behind Charles Leclerc and Sergio Perez, and it was a statement performance from him and the Mercedes team. They believe they are well and truly on the right path back to the top.
