Usually Dapper Lewis Hamilton Caught in Major Fashion Faux Pas as Fans Cannot Believe Their Eyes

Lewis Hamilton is known around the F1 world not just for his racing achievements, but also for setting the fashion trends in the paddock. Associated with a plethora of major fashion brands, the Mercedes driver never shies away from expressing himself through fashion. However, one of his latest fashion choices has raised a few questions even amongst his ever-supportive fans.

Hamilton seems to have been making good use of the two-week break between the British and the Hungarian Grand Prix. The Briton was spotted enjoying his time off from F1 and vacationing in Ibiza.

The F1 driver was joined by tennis player Jenny Spetalen and Mexican actress Eiza Gonzalez. Renowned film director Baz Luhrmann was also spotted alongside the seven-time World Champion.

During his trip, Hamilton managed to stir up a conversation among his followers due to his odd clothing choice on vacation. The Briton decided to rock up on the beach wearing a full tracksuit, something that didn’t seem to match the occasion at all.

Drip is Permanent for Lewis Hamilton

Fans were quick to point out how odd Hamilton’s outfit looked compared to the other people around him. Twitter user Deni commented that Hamilton is the type of person who would wear a tracksuit anywhere he likes, even if it is on a beach.

Julia made a funny remark and commented that this often happens to her when she goes out with her parents not knowing where they are going.

Another Twitter user posted a video of a man trying to jump off from a high-rise building. They explained that that is what Hamilton must be like when he is not allowed to wear a tracksuit everywhere.

Another Hamilton fan tried to justify the decision taken by the 38-year-old and explained that the heat on the beach is a temporary problem, but Hamilton’s style statement is permanent.

Hamilton is one of the leading figures in the Fashion x Motorsports convergence

Despite a few questionable choices here and there, Hamilton is one of the major forces behind the intersection of fashion and motorsports. Following in the footsteps of the seven-time World Champion, a lot of young drivers are slowly exploring their own fashion statement.

One of the most prominent examples would be Alfa Romeo’s Guanyu Zhou. The Chinese driver is often spotted arriving at the paddock in brilliant and colorful designer clothes, something along the lines of what Hamilton would love to wear.

For Hamilton, fashion is not just limited to his paddock style statement anymore. He has delved deep into the business of fashion and tied up and collaborated with various famous fashion houses. Hamilton made news when he managed to rack up more than $1.5 Million in endorsements by attending Pharrell Williams’ debut at Louis Vuitton.

It is clear that Hamilton takes quite a bit of interest in what he wears. Fashion is one of his more prominent passions and the former McLaren driver will not be deterred if one of his choice does not sit well with a few people.
