"They Don't Know Any Other Drivers": F1 Fans Mock Tom Holland and Other Celebrities for Naming Lewis Hamilton as Their Favorite Driver

The Monaco Grand Prix is one of the most historic races on the F1 calendar, where most celebrities make their presence felt. Hollywood actor Tom Holland is the latest celebrity that has been spotted in the principality.

When asked who was he there to support, the 26-year-old replied, “Lewis. Always“. While Holland stated that he was supporting Lewis Hamilton, he did also meet McLaren driver, Lando Norris and some other members of the paddock.

F1 fans joke celebrities do not know any other driver than Hamilton

After Tom Holland joined the likes of Maria Sharapova and Neymar in supporting Lewis Hamilton, several fans such as Danny and Dafne stated that these celebrities just name the British driver as “they don’t know any other drivers“.

Meanwhile, some other fans pointed out that Holland supporting Hamilton seems ‘even funnier‘ as Red Bull invited the Hollywood actor to the paddock.

And then there were some other fans such as Cora who joked that Red Bull will never invite Holland again after he publicly revealed his support for Hamilton.

Lewis Hamilton has a decent Monaco GP race after a poor qualifying

After qualifying in sixth during the Monaco Grand Prix qualifying on Saturday, Hamilton managed to gain two places during the main race to finish fourth, on a circuit where overtaking is extremely difficult. He finished one place ahead of Mercedes teammate Russell and crucially ahead of both the Ferraris of Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz.

Hamilton’s only disappointment could be that he finished behind Alpine’s Esteban Ocon, who clinched only his third career F1 podium. After a decent weekend for Hamilton and Mercedes, they will now hope to carry on this form to the Spanish GP, which takes place next week from June 2 to 4.
