This weekend is a special one for Lewis Hamilton as it brings the British Grand Prix, his highly anticipated home race. Undoubtedly, the weight of expectations on his shoulders is immense. However, amid this pressure, it appears that Hamilton has found solace in the company of his furry friend, Roscoe, as seen on the bulldog’s Instagram.

In previous races, Roscoe would often be spotted by Hamilton’s side, providing companionship and support. Sadly, due to Roscoe’s old age, he is no longer able to join Hamilton on his travels, as the British driver himself has mentioned. Lewis Hamilton’s social media followers are familiar with his dear British Bulldog, Roscoe. Their relationship is showcased through Hamilton’s engaging Instagram social media updates.

On his bulldog’s Instagram, Hamilton posted a picture of him and Roscoe captioned “Backs withs dads.” He also delighted his followers by sharing an adorable video featuring Roscoe on his pet’s Instagram story. Just like his ‘dad’ Roscoe has garnered a substantial fan base of his own, boasting over 750k followers on his personal social media page.
