Lewis Hamilton posts a topless photo so that somebody from the paddock can retire. Mercedes AMG F1 has now shared a picture to taunt their rivals and Max Verstappen after the heated incident after the sprint race. The fans are exhilarated as they react to the image shared, suggesting the cheeky move that Lewis Hamilton and Co. has pulled off. Let’s see what the image is and how the fans reacted to it.

Usually when Max Verstappen is involved in an accident, it’s a recipe for disaster for the opposition driver. However, this time around when George Russell gave the current world champion a taste of his own medicine, Verstappen resorted to using words rather than settling it on the track. George Russell went to apologize to Max about the contact which put a massive hole in his sidepod. The Dutchman had other ideas in mind and started arguing. Nevertheless, the Briton ignored him, walking away from the debate.

As the Mercedes driver was walking away, Verstappen called him a “D*ckhead” from behind. George Russell did respond to his comments and things were somewhat settled post the main race. However, Mercedes can never let go of such opportunities and countered Max Verstappen and Red Bull in a style of their own.

Mercedes F1 team’s official Instagram account posted images from this weekend after the Azerbaijan GP. Fans were asked to pick their favorite photo from the bunch which was posted. The Caption of the post read “Photo dump, Baku edition. 📸 🔥 Which is your favorite pic? 😁”. The post included photos of Mick Schumacher, George Russell wearing shades, Lewis Hamilton filming with a camera, and Hamilton taking a photo from his phone. However, there was one picture that stood out.
