Formula 1 drivers are probably and automatically one of the biggest car enthusiasts in the world. These drivers live and breathe in the world of automotive. However, Lewis Hamilton recently met someone in Abu Dhabi who might just be a bigger car enthusiast than himself. A woman who goes by Supercar Blondie.
For the unaware, Alexandra Mary “Alex” Hirschi aka Supercar Blondie is a social media influencer and vlogger. Supercar Blondie is based in Dubai, UAE, and is famous for her automotive videos, which she shares on various social media platforms. The Australian has amassed a massive following of 11.4 million under her alias and recently met Hamilton.

Supercar Blondie picked up the Mercedes world champion in a black Mercedes G-class for a quick chat. During the chat, Hamilton revealed one of his first jobs from his humble beginnings, before he amassed his $285 million. “When I was younger, to make a bit of money, I was cleaning cars,” he said. “I was cleaning like as many people’s cars like on the street and I would do a really great job.”
The Billion Dollar Man even revealed how much he would charge for one car. “When I first did it, it was probably like 10 pounds ($12) but then I eventually got up to like 50 quid ($60),” he revealed.
