Lewis Hamilton had a fairly successful performance in the Monaco GP, despite beginning the race in sixth place and finishing two positions higher in P4. Overtaking cars on the challenging Monaco circuit is notoriously difficult. Still, the Mercedes strategists demonstrated their competence by enabling him to surpass Carlos Sainz following the onset of rain through a precisely timed pit stop. Following the race, Hamilton switched gears from his strenuous racing life, enjoying the social events Monaco has to offer
Lewis Hamilton enjoys a wide circle of well-known acquaintances outside the F1 realm. During the recent Monaco GP, Brazilian football sensation Neymar Jr. was spotted in attendance in support of his close friend Hamilton. The superstar, worth $200 Million, skipped out on PSG’s Ligue 1 title celebrations to enjoy the atmosphere the Monaco GP offers.
He joined Neymar Jr., the Brazilian and PSG football superstar, at a Travis Scott concert at the most lavish club in Monaco, Lilly’s Club, demonstrating his interest in both music and socializing with his famous companions. It’s regarded as the most exclusive club in the principality.
Hamilton initially seemed to have ignored Neymar in the paddock, having zoomed passed him on his scooter, sparking rumors of discord. However, the pair warmly embraced each other in the club and enjoyed a night of music and drinks, toasting their mutual success. This put any conjecture of a rift to rest.
