Oscar Piastri, the Fellow Australian. He's what 22 years old? He's pretty wild.
Liam Hemsworth spotted with Chris Hemsworth
At the Abu Dhabi GP, Chris Hemsworth was partnered up with Liam Hemsworth. Both the good-looking brothers took a round of the pitlane before the race and looked at the multiple garages of the constructor’s prior to the race. Additionally, the Mercedes garage invited both brothers to visit the garage prior to the race during the Formation Lap.
The Hemsworth brothers were seen together in the Mercedes garage, surrounded by race engineers and crew members. Hemsworth brothers were one of the first people who met up with Lewis Hamilton prior to the race and exchanged conversations and greetings with each other. They cheered for Hamilton as well, despite the blatant support to Piastri from Chris.
It was refreshing to see both the Hemsworth brothers present at the Ultimate race of the season and meet and greet with other people and personalities on the grid. Also, the support to fellow Aussie from Chris Hemsworth has definitely motivated Piastri to perform at this best and end the season on a high note as he concludes his rookie season at the Abu Dhabi GP.
