“Great Fiery Feisty”: Lewis Hamilton’s First 2023 Avatar Leaves the F1 World Stunned as Bahrain Showdown Begins

The wait is finally over. We are officially into the first race weekend of the 2023 F1 season. While the on-track action is obviously something fans look forward to, drivers’ outfits while arriving at the paddocks are another talking point. And it’s not hard to guess which among them grabs the most eyeballs. That’s right, Lewis Hamilton has arrived at the paddocks; this time with an all-red look. The Silver Arrows’ ace often makes some statement with his outfits. While he did not specify if he was making one this time, fans nonetheless made interpretations of their own.

Hamilton often leaves not just fans, but his fellow F1 drivers awestruck with his bold outfits. In an earlier interview, his teammate George Russell put him on his list of podium holders for best-dressed drivers on the grid. Charles Leclerc too once praised him for pulling off odd-looking outfits with confidence. Lewis recently made an appearance in an all-black outfit at the BAFTAs afterparty and stole the spotlight away from Serena Williams.

It’s Friday and we’ll have the first two practice sessions for the Bahrain GP today. However, before its kick-off, Lewis is raising the heat. While it is already pretty hot out there in Bahrain, the Briton chose a thick buttoned-down shirt and trousers coupled with red sunglasses and sneakers to complete the look.

Have a look at how fans reacted to the outfit on Twitter.

One user had a hilarious take on the outfit that looked like a red carpet in itself.

For her latest Super Bowl halftime performance, Rihanna too made an appearance in an all-red outfit. Some felt the pop star pulled it off better.

Fans were in awe after seeing the sheer audacity with which Hamilton was able to pull off the outfit.

Some felt the Mercedes driver was probably turning into a Ferrari fan. Given how the Prancing Horse is looking as the frontrunner to challenge Red Bull in 2023, we wouldn’t be surprised if he really was.
