Bubba Wallace Joins Half a Million Dejected Fans as F1 Superstar Lewis Hamilton Announces Sad News

In a sport like Formula 1, the trials and tribulations of the sport are faced by all drivers. But none has been as formidable as Lewis Hamilton. The 38-year-old has carved a niche out for himself in a cutthroat sport. He saw many highs and many lows, but through it all, he had one constant who kept him in shape, physically and mentally. But that constant is all set to leave Lewis’s side when he needs it the most.

Lewis Hamilton is often known to be a man who likes to keep to himself. His social life, though, flourishing, has painted such a picture of the 7x champion. However, F1 fans know Angela Cullen, his performance coach, and confidante, to always be seen by his side when on the track. It’s a very well-known fact in the paddock that the 48-year-old Kiwi has been his rock through all the ups and downs the Brit has faced during his illustrious F1 career.

But all good things come to an end. And so did their relationship. Hamilton recently announced on his Instagram account that Cullen will be leaving Mercedes, and his side, to pursue other things. This heartwarming post saw a famous NASCAR personality react and join the millions in giving Cullen a hearty send-off.

While paying tribute to her, he wrote, “I am a stronger athlete and a better person because of her. So today I hope you’ll join me in wishing her the very best as she takes her next steps to pursue her dreams.”  F1 fans around the world were devastated to hear this news. And a close friend of the Brit joined in to react to this sad news.

NASCAR ace Bubba Wallace, is no stranger to Lewis Hamilton. Wallace has, on many occasions, shown his affinity towards the 7x champion. And Hamilton has reciprocated with his words of wisdom and encouragement. He was one of the first to react to the post, as nearly 500k reacted to the post at the time of writing.
