It didn't bother me, no. I think, look, I'm nearly 40 years old. So, I remember being in my mid-20s and I remember, when I go back and look at things that I said that I would've said differently or I would've acted differently and I know what it's like when you come out of the race, where you feel like you should've won and your emotions are spiralling so, I see that and I'm like, it's an age thing. And, you know, I don't take it personally.

Ultimately all us drivers, all us competitors, we do put a lot of pressure on ourselves. That's how we do what we do and I don't think you can be particularly great without putting pressure on yourself in life. You've gotta aim high and you know, if you fail and you're like, that's the greatest thing ever and you're really relaxed about it, I don't think you're ever gonna naturally achieve what you can potentially achieve.

Can you be too hard on yourself? For sure. There was a time when I didn't leave my room for three days when I was his age so I know what it's like. And that wasn't healthy for me but I don't think Lando's locking himself in his room for three days at the moment and I hope he doesn't! *laughs* I think what's important is just continue to do what he's doing. He's driving great, they've got a great car and just need to keep working together as a team. - Lewis Hamilton

Formula 1 legend Lewis Hamilton’s Met Gala look was inspired by the story of John Ystumllyn, one of Britain’s first Black gardeners, and by the language of flowers in Black history.

His outfit was hand-embroidered for two weeks by a team of 20 before the finishing touches were painted by hand in New York over the weekend.

“Lewis’ coat is embroidered with periwinkles for endurance, yucca for eternity and protecting restless spirits, daffodils known as ‘pass-along’ flowers for their hardiness, and cedar branches for everlasting life,” explained Lee. | WWD

"Que dia incrível vivemos hoje! Sou um apaixonado fã de Fórmula 1 há mais de 30 anos. Esse esporte faz parte da minha vida e a Fórmula 1 já me proporcionou experiências incríveis. Mas posso dizer que ontem vive o ápice desta paixão. José está se tornando um fã do esporte, já acompanha as corridas comigo e conhece todos os pilotos e equipes. Levar essa paixão adiante é um legado passado de pai para filho. Desde que começou a seguir o esporte José se identificou com o Lewis Hamilton. “Olha pai, tem um piloto preto igual a mim” disse ele na primeira vez que viu o britânico no pódio. Quando falamos que viríamos para a corrida, ele pediu para fazer o penteado igual ao do ídolo e que comprássemos uma camisa da Mercedes. José tem 3 anos e trabalhamos essa questão racial de maneira suave com ele. Sabemos dos desafios que terá adiante mas tudo tem seu tempo. Lewis Hamilton é muito mais do que um piloto ou um ídolo do esporte. O maior campeão da história da categoria quebrou paradigmas num esporte tradicionalmente branco e de elite. Poder proporcionar este encontro significa muito para nós e trazer para a vida do José um ídolo como Hamilton é uma grande alegria. A paixão do pequeno José pela Fórmula 1 cresce a cada dia. O pai aqui fica orgulhoso e feliz de saber que agora tenho um parceirinho para me acompanhar nessa jornada."

'What an incredible day we live today! I have been a passionate Formula 1 fan for over 30 years. This sport is part of my life and Formula 1 has already given me incredible experiences. But I can say that yesterday this passion reached its peak. José is becoming a fan of the sport, he already follows the races with me and knows all the drivers and teams. Carrying this passion forward is a legacy passed from father to son. Since he started following the sport, José identified with Lewis Hamilton. “Look dad, there’s a black driver just like me” he said the first time he saw the Briton on the podium. When we said we were coming to the race, he asked us to do our hairstyle like his idol and for us to buy a Mercedes shirt. José is 3 years old and we work on this racial issue gently with him. We know the challenges ahead, but everything has its time. Lewis Hamilton is much more than a driver or a sporting idol. The greatest champion in the history of the category broke paradigms in a traditionally white and elite sport. Being able to provide this meeting means a lot to us and bringing an idol like Hamilton into José's life is a great joy. Little José's passion for Formula 1 grows every day. The father here is proud and happy to know that I now have a little partner to accompany me on this journey." - june 8, 2024 📷 @.andrecardoso_rj / instagram

LEWIS: “If I had this, I’d design it as a lollipop pack and I would just sit there eating lollipops the whole time. Genius.” | 21.07.24

“It was a really good day. I enjoyed today, I hit the ground running from the get-go and made incremental steps with the set-up – and for once felt like we didn’t have steps that we had to come back on, it was consistently building. I don’t know how my long run is compared to others but we didn’t get a huge amount of laps. Yeah, I think Red Bull seem pretty quick, as does the Ferrari, but we are there or thereabouts.”

“On this day you don’t know what fuel loads everyone is on and often when we get to P3 or particularly when we get to qualifying everyone takes a step and we haven’t so far, we haven’t always. I think we will stay cautious and just try to do the best we can with what we have, I hope we are closer to the front than it seems maybe but we will find out tomorrow.”

Lewis, could you talk through the touch with Max? He obviously made that move down the inside. You guys touched. He was on the radio saying about you were moving under braking. Could you talk through your side of it, please?LH: "Yeah. No, I think, I mean, from what I can remember, obviously we passed a backmarker. I got to the braking zone, and then Max appeared, to overtake the car behind me, so I moved over to defend. I left enough room in the inside, but Max locked up, and he was going a different trajectory to me. I was going towards, around the corner, and he came shooting across. It felt like a racing incident. And it's easy to make mistakes like that. And so I don't feel there should be any hostility. But of course, from his side, there always will be."
