“I miss her every day. She was a breath of fresh air for me every day. She was always a great help during the seven years we worked together,” said a very grateful Lewis Hamilton (last year) talking about his very good friend and physiotherapist Angela Cullen. The 49-year-old, who was a part of the Mercedes driver’s team for seven years, departed from F1 in early 2023, to join her fellow New Zealander and Indycar racer Marcus Armstrong.
However, this development has left Hamilton fans heartbroken and Cullen’s latest social media post seemed to have riled them up even more! And perhaps their demand is justified. After all, during Cullen’s stint with Hamilton, he won five titles, bringing the duo closer.
Recently, Cullen took to Instagram to post about the latest developments in her professional career. Sharing a picture with Armstrong, Cullen wrote some thoughtful words drawing inspiration from Steve Jobs. The caption read: “Long Beach 🏖️,” “Chasing dreams,” “Trust,” and “You can’t connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backward. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You have to trust in something -your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. This approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life. – Steve Jobs”

While we are still unsure of which dots she connected looking backward, it seems pretty clear that another form of motor racing has attracted her now. She has clearly moved on to pursue other adventures in her life, but clearly the fans haven’t!
Fans get impatient seeing Angela Cullen back on track
Cullen has stayed away from the limelight ever since her split with Lewis with fans eagerly waiting for her updates. However, she finally made her comeback, which, as expected, was met with a barrage of questions and demands. Evidently, fans couldn’t help but recall good times with Cullen and were left asking her to reunite with the Briton. Under her post about Armstrong, fans left many comments stating their wish.

Some very frank fans began asking her to comecback citing how badly Lewis needs her. “Lewis needs you. Come back please ❤️,” one of them wrote.
To add to that, a section of fans posed comeback questions to her, with one fan even taking the time to thank her for her contributions, writing, “When will you return to work with LH? I love your work and I’m very grateful for everything you’ve done! 💪🏾”.
On the other hand, another hopeful user expressed his wish to see the iconic duo on the paddock once more. “Still giving me hopes of seeing you and Lewis in red walking down the paddock together in 25’ ,” they wrote.

An admirer, without directly saying anything, even advised Cullen how red color would suit her, while commenting, “Wearing red next year? I think you look good at it. I’m just saying.”
