Lewis Hamilton’s Close Ally Spotted on Enemy Grounds at Red Bull Event

The Red Bull car launch was a grand event in New York City. It certainly got a good marketing boost for the Austrian brand with Ford’s F1 return. Meanwhile, there were several Red Bull-sponsored athletes present at the venue as well. One of them was US fencing star Miles Chamley-Watson. Many were happy to see Chamley sharing footage of the events happening at the RBR launch. Though, to some, it felt a little weird considering Watson is a close ally and friend of Lewis Hamilton.

Watson posted stories on his Instagram, showing him enjoying Red Bull’s 2023 F1 season launch. The American fencer also had a nice chat as well with his fellow Red Bull athletes. Chamley shared these insider moments of how the vibe felt at the grand event.

Chamley known as @fencer on his Instagram has been a close friend of Mercedes driver Lewis Hamilton. The duo often support each other for their accomplishments on social media. Although Watson’s presence was perhaps important at RBR’s F1 launch event for 2023, considering he is a Red Bull athlete.

Keeping personal friendly relations aside, sports stars often need to fulfill sponsor demands. Therefore, Miles-Chamley Watson attending Red Bull’s car launch makes sense from a sponsorship perspective.
