Lewis Hamilton Mind Blown by Fan’s “Wicked” Tribute Hairstyle

Every sport has its own set of fanatics, and F1 is no different. Amid that, drivers like Lewis Hamilton attract some of the most passionate fans. This was evident at the Japanese GP as a Hamilton fan paid tribute to the Briton’s helmet design with a creative hairstyle that even left the 40-year-old stunned.

As surprised as the fan was to meet his idol, Hamilton was equally surprised. “That’s crazy” and “that’s wicked,” said Hamilton with a laugh as soon as he met his fan. But what did the fan do with his hair?

The Japanese fan insanely copied Hamilton‘s latest Ferrari helmet design to perfection. He colored his hair yellow with shades of black and the Ferrari logo in the centre. To make his hair resemble Hamilton’s helmet more, the fan even added some of Ferrari’s sponsors, such as Unicredit, which appears on the sides.

Having recently reverted to his classic yellow helmet design, Hamilton would’ve loved to see the fan’s prompt creativity and effort. Netizens also appreciated him, with several explaining how hilarious and crazy this is at the same time.

“Crazy art,” @sanchodominic7 wrote on X with two laughing emojis. On similar lines, another user explained how the fan’s ingenuity is “amazing and hilarious at the same time”.

Meanwhile, one fan credited Ferrari team principal Frederic Vasseur for ensuring that Hamilton appreciated the fan’s efforts by greeting him and clicking a picture together. Perhaps if Hamilton ever wants to flaunt a new hairstyle, he now knows whom he can approach.

As for Japanese fans, while they have always been known for their artistry, this act will certainly top the creativity of most. And just like Hamilton aims to push the limits on the track to achieve success, his fans do the same to impress him.
