Tom Holland shocks the fans with his latest antic at the 2023 Monaco GP.

Tom Holland
Hollywood big shot Tom Holland was one of the many guests that were present at the ‘glamorous’ 2023 Monaco Grand Prix. This prestigious race attracts the wealthiest and the most popular individuals in the world and this year was no different. The Spider Man star attended this year’s iteration of the GP but was spotted without his girlfriend and fellow Co-star Zendaya.
The whole weekend was filled with chaos and drama. Cars touching the barrier and other incidents leading to cranes literally giving the Red Bull F1 car wings by lifting it up in the air. In the midst of all that, Tom Holland had a small part. Whilst being interviewed on the grid, he was inquired about his racing loyalties. When asked, he promptly said “Lewis, always.” In this way, he promptly declared his support for Lewis Hamilton.
Lewis Hamilton’s race result was pretty decent given the situation and conditions. However, Max Verstappen triumphed at Monaco as he went on to cross the finish line first. And there lied Tom Holland who got the honour of waving the checkered flag. Whilst the Spiderman actor’s favourite driver didn’t win the race, Tom’s enthusiasm was not watered down at all.

While Tom Holland almost injured himself, his efforts were greatly appreciated by the fans. With Max Verstappen winning the 2023 Monaco GP and Fernando Alonso coming in second place, it surely was an entertaining race. With Esteban Ocon getting a shock podium, it just added more flavour to what was a race that will be remembered for years.
