Lewis Hamilton‘s fame knows no bounds, especially in the UK. The Stevenage-born Hamilton has been Briton’s pride since his debut in 2007 and he’s continuously added to his legend and expanded his fandom over the years. However, 16 years later, on the back of two back-to-back disappointing seasons, one would assume the Mercedes man’s fan base is slowly depleting. Not one bit! The stars of the new generation are also fans of the 7x world champion and representing them, Tom Holland showcased it.

The current generation Spider-Man had already showcased his support toward Hamilton during the 2023 season. In fact, the two were also pictured on a lunch date in New York at Sant Ambroeus. The two Brits have since formed a relationship where there is obvious and genuine appreciation toward each other.

Showcasing that once again, Holland was up watching the ill-timed Australian GP, whether you’re in London or New York. In the UK, the race was scheduled to begin at 4 am, whereas, in New York, the race was scheduled for midnight. So no matter where the Brit residing in New York was watching the race from, he was making an effort. So much so that we even saw him root for Hamilton during the driver’s parade.

Hollan appeared on the live stream of the driver’s parade, which is two hours before lights out, and rooted for his friend by commenting, Let’s go Lewis!!!. Sadly, he could only go for 17 laps before an engine failure ended his race.

If that doesn’t tell you Holland’s a Hamilton fan, we don’t know what will. However, the reason behind this friendship might be for some selfish gains.

Tom Holland reveals his desire to trade places with Lewis Hamilton

Apologies for making it sound ominous but the selfish reasons behind Holland’s friendship with Hamilton is something almost every person in the world would share. It’s the desire to just get a feel of how an F1 car drives. It’s a privilege only 20 men, as of right now, enjoy and Holland wants to as well.

Speaking to the media, Holland, in the past, confessed, “I’d love to try and drive one of those cars. He’s obviously the best at it, and no one does it like him. He’s an amazing bloke and someone that I really admire so, to step into his shoes, would be an honor.”

We’re not sure if Hamilton or anyone else will be able to fulfill this desire of his. However, Hamilton can surely put Holland in his race seat to give him a feel of the cockpit, like he did with Neymar. Just keep on supporting Hamilton and you just will get your wish Tom Holland.
