Lewis Hamilton
Lewis Hamilton showed off his quirky sense of style as he attended an event to promote his non-alcoholic tequila Almave in Miami on Wednesday.
The F1 driver, 39, opted for a tyically quirkly look for the outing as he sported a sleeveless denim top with matching loose-fitting jeans.
Showing off his arm tattoos, Lewis also sported a pair of black shoes as he mixed and mingled with his guests.
The star completed his look with a pair of eye-catching diamond earrings and a pearl bracelet.
Lewis was mobbed by fans at the event where he happily signed autographs and caps for those in attendance.
The Formula 1 star is already mulling over his future away from the track and has revealed he’s sought advice from some of his famous friends who have already stepped away from their sports.
He told GQ’s annual Creativity Issue: ‘I’d spoken to so many amazing athletes, from Boris Becker to Serena Williams, even Michael Jordan. Talking to greats that I’ve met along the way, who are retired – or some that are still in competition – and the fear of what’s next, the lack of preparation for what’s next.’
‘A lot of them said: “I stopped too early.” Or: “Stayed too long.” “When it ended, I didn’t have anything planned.” “My whole world came crashing down because my whole life has been about that sport”.
‘Some of them were like: “I didn’t plan and it was a bit of a mess-up because I was really lost afterwards. There was such a hole. Such a void. And I had no idea how I was going to fill it. And I was in such a rush initially to try and fill it that you fill it with the wrong thing…”‘
‘But it just got my mind thinking about: “Okay, when I stop, how do I avoid that?” And so I got serious about finding other things that I was passionate about.’
He added: ‘I went through this phase of understanding that I can’t race forever … Because when I stop, I’m gonna drop the mic and be happy.’
Lewis went on to reveal he has many passions he wants to pursue, but he needs to narrow it down so he’s decided to focus on film and fashion – and wants to set up a luxury brand company to rival LVMH which boasts names including Tiffany Co., Christian Dior and Givenchy.
He explained: ‘The difficult thing is I want to do everything. I’m very ambitious. But I understand that you can’t do—actually, I take that back because I don’t believe in the word can’t.
‘To be a master at something, there’s the 10,000 hours it takes. Obviously, I’ve done that in racing. There’s not enough time to master all of these different things …
‘I think it’s gonna be film and fashion … Honestly, one of my dreams is I have thought about creating my own diverse LVMH.’
‘Like, I don’t know if we live in a time where that’s really possible. But that’s something that I’m conceptualising.’
Lewis has previously ventured into both music and movies – founding his own production company called Dawn Apollo Films – and he’s also collaborated with American fashion designer Tommy Hilfiger.
