Lewis Hamilton is one of the biggest names in F1 history. The seven-time world champion enjoys a massive following on social media across platforms. On Instagram, the British driver is followed by a staggering 34.8 Million users, the most for an F1 driver. As such, millions of fans were confused when Hamilton created a burner account on the Meta-owned platform.

The 38-year-old followed a mysterious account on Instagram with the username “@ev10am26la.” This is only the fourth account that Lewis Hamilton has followed on this platform. The other three are his pet Roscoe’s official account, the Mission 44 initiative, and his +44 merchandise line. This made it clear that this new account was related to the seven-time champion.

Moreover, the Instagram bio of this account says, “LH burning account.” The initials once again hint at Lewis Hamilton. Interestingly, Hamilton might have made a burner account on the platform. A burner account is an account made to essentially scroll through a platform anonymously for a short period of time. However, it seems that the Mercedes driver failed to keep his anonymity. Although, Hamilton has made no confirmation regarding this account.

On the other hand, Taylor Swift fans wondered if the seven-time world champion had taken some lessons from the pop icon. One user wrote, “He probably thinks he’s Taylor Swift.” While another fan said, “He went to the Taylor Swift school of leaving hints.”

Moreover, one fan wondered if this account would reveal Lewis Hamilton’s next song release under the name XDNA. The fan stated, “XNDA about to drop a HIT.” At the same time, one user suggested that perhaps it was Roscoe who had accidentally started this chaos. The user replied, “No no Roscoe just licked his phone and he rolled with it.”

As such, Lewis Hamilton has caused massive speculation among fans on social media. The seven-time world champion has not given any information regarding this cryptic account. However, it seems that the British driver might be hinting at a big announcement in the coming weeks. Although it remains to be seen if any of the fan theories prove to be correct.
