Lewis Hamilton, an F1 driver, is an avid traveler by nature. The British driver has won the world championship SEVEN times, racing from circuit to circuit.
Having surpassed Michael Schumacher’s record of 91 career race victories the previous year, he at least had a choice of four opulent houses to retreat to before he embarked on his quest for the 2021 championship.
With properties ranging from a £32 million penthouse in New York to a £18 million home in London to a getaway in Monte Carlo, the 37-year-old racer is well-versed in living in luxury.
NEW YORK
Lewis has two houses in the Big Apple and has a strong connection to the east coast of the United States. He spent £32 million on a Manhattan penthouse in a condo development in 2019 that was partially owned by NFL legend Tom Brady and his model spouse Gisele Bundchen.
In addition to a large outdoor space with views of the Hudson River, his 6,547 square foot property had a swimming pool, fitness center, squash court, library, and wine cellar. Mike Myers, actor of Austin Powers, and Oscar-winning actress Jennifer Lawrence are neighbors.
He offered his 8,900-square-foot, three-story penthouse with a private pool at around the same time. Amazingly, Hamilton never resided in the five-bedroom, six-bathroom Tribeca property he spent £34 million for in 2017. If he ever sold it, that much is unknown.

MONTE CARLO
Hamilton, like a lot of Formula One drivers, resides in Monaco. He once posted a picture of his amazing view, despite the fact that not much is known about his property.”A place I call home, Monte Carlo,” he said as the description for a social media photo. Living in such a wonderful area is really a blessing. I feel like God is really illuminating me today.
“Sending you light & love for your day. On my way to Spa, let’s do this!!!”
Hamilton lives tax free in Monaco most of the time
It is believed Hamilton resides in the exclusive Fontvieille district
Hamilton once shared a view from his stunning Monaco apartment
He is said to live in the exclusive Fontvieille neighborhood. It was said in 2007 that he was considering a four-bedroom, 2,000 square foot duplex at Fontvieille’s Seaside Plaza that had views of the Mediterranean. An apartment on the top level would have cost him almost £30 million. Nice, if you’re a world-class driver.
