Love is in the air. Apart from Lewis Hamilton and Shakira, who have been generating headlines with their modest gestures over the previous several weeks, Max Verstappen and Kelly Piquet are the other two well-known names found in love in the pit lane. Considering these little acts, it appears to have sparked a new competition to be the “best boyfriend,” and do you know who won the award for that? It’s the man who, in the Canadian GP, won over F1 fans with his excellent defense, and he now tops the list of best boyfriends after doing something sweet for his girlfriend.

Alex Albon seems to have won over the fans’ hearts with his compassionate and sincere deed when he once visited Wat Sakraeo Orphanage and dyed his hair red. In addition, despite having a demanding job, the Thai driver never passes up an opportunity to win his lover over. In a recent incident, the Williams driver shocked Lily Muni, his professional golfer girlfriend, with yet another heartwarming gesture, on her birthday on 17th June.

While some drivers choose to spend their free time with family and engage in their favorite hobbies, it appears that Albon prefers to spend his pastime with his girlfriend. In the specific tweet, it was noted that Albon, who being the best boyfriend ever, went so far as to plan Lily’s 24th birthday celebration that he even “bribed the concierge.”

On the F1 grid, very few couples have openly declared their love for one another. Albon and Muni, however, have given the supporters numerous chances to smile with their little gestures. One such event occurred on the Canadian Circuit.

How did Lily Muni’s thoughtful act at the Canadian GP gave Alex Albon a moment to cherish?

At the Canadian Grand Prix, Albon had a tremendous weekend. He first joined the Q3 with a deft strategic move, and later at the Circuit of Canada, he demonstrated some masterclass defense to get a P7 with a 50-lap-old hard tire and gather some vital team points.

After the race, while Albon was preoccupied with media coverage, one of Sky’s journalists spotted Albon’s Girlfriend Muni waiting for the Thai driver to approach her from a distance. In a clip uploaded by @albonscar on Twitter, the journalists invited the professional golfer and requested her to make a meaningful gesture that Albon will never forget.
