Whether you're an F1 OG, a Drive to Survive diehard or, quite simply, a fashion fan, you'll know that Lewis Hamilton's off-track outfits have become a major talking point throughout his career as of late. So much so that he was named a 2024 co-chair of fashion's most prestigious event: the Met Gala.

Speaking in an interview before the 2024 Met Ball, Lewis explained: "Art and fashion, I mean, particularly fashion for me has been like air in your lungs. it's very much a mood because it swings every day and it's an evolution. It's something that's constantly evolving. But for me to be able to express myself in the way I look and have confidence, historically black people would wear it as protection, but over time you learn how to express yourself and show up with dignity and courage and that's something that it's been able to do for me as well."
