The 2021 Brazilian GP is considered by many as one of Lewis Hamilton’s finest wins. Hamilton went from last to win the race, after battling Max Verstappen hard.
On the same day, two Brazilian fans of the 7x world champion were getting married. Their marriage was scheduled at the same time as the race on Sunday. However, the couple skipped the dilemma between watching the race and getting married by streaming the Grand Prix on their big day.
The couple had a life-sized Hamilton cutout, wearing a red bow-time grace their big day. As they prepared to take their vows, the couple were told that the Briton had won the race.
