How many of Pharrell Williams’ F1 track excursions can you recall? Definitely not all of his outings. Pharrell Williams has been an F1 fan for the longest time. The American Singer also became a Sponsor of the Lotus F1 Team back in 2015 as the team ran a special Pharrell Williams livery at the 2015 Monaco GP. Despite sponsoring Lotus, Williams remained a rival team fan. Nevertheless, Lewis Hamilton recently hailed the American sensation for his collaboration with the $500 Billion worth brand just a year after Pharrell Williams snubbed F1 Giants in favor of the Mercedes Legend.
Williams has been spotted in the Ferrari garages multiple times including the 2014 Abu Dhabi GP. Pharrell also owns a legendary Ferrari Enzo. At the 2022 Miami GP during the Grid walk, Martin Brundle caught up with Pharrell Williams and asked him about being a petrolhead. Pharrell replied, “I love Ferrari cars, but Lewis is my brother!”. When questioned about Lewis’ struggles and his possibilities of winning, he replied “Lewis is my brother, He’s always going to be my brother”. The rapper might be a Ferrari fan but he snubbed the Scuderia in favor of his “brother” Lewis Hamilton.
Pharrell Williams was recently announced as the creative director for Louis Vuitton’s menswear. Lewis Hamilton was also spotted at the Louis Vuitton Men’s Spring Summer 2024 Show as it celebrated a historic moment where Pharrell Williams showcased his first collection with LV. The 7X World Champion was there to support his friend. Hamilton hailed Pharrell’s collaboration with the $500 Billion worth brand as he posted a story on Instagram. The Briton posted a photo of the American Sensation dressed in the digitized Camouflage overalls from the new LV collection with the caption “Well Done @pharrell”
