Lewis Hamilton has shared his new hairstyle on social media as he prepares for the upcoming Formula One season. The seven-time world champion, currently spending time in Brazil, posted pictures on Instagram showcasing his new copper, frizzy hairdo, having opted to ditch his trademark braids.
In the photos, Hamilton is seen wearing a yellow Nike jumper and a blue cap, exuding a relaxed vibe as he enjoys his time off-track. The Briton’s new look has garnered attention, especially as he gears up for his final season with Mercedes before his much-discussed move to Ferrari in 2025.
With Hamilton aiming to secure an eighth Formula One title, all eyes will be on him as he seeks to close the gap on his fierce rival, Max Verstappen, who dominated the previous season with 19 wins out of 22 races.
As Hamilton prepares for his departure from Mercedes, speculation abounds regarding his replacement. While Carlos Sainz is one potential option, former F1 team owner Eddie Jordan has suggested that Sebastian Vettel could come out of retirement to fill the void left by Hamilton.
Jordan believes that the current generation of Formula One cars, which are less physically demanding to drive, could entice Vettel back into the sport. Additionally, he speculates that Hamilton’s decision to leave Mercedes may stem from doubts about the team’s championship-winning potential.
As the Formula One community eagerly awaits the start of the new season, Hamilton’s new hairstyle serves as a reminder of the changes ahead in the dynamic world of motorsport.
