Despite Snubbing Mercedes for Red Bull in Monaco, Neymar Jr. Receives Emotional Farewell Message From Lewis Hamilton & Co.

Lewis Hamilton‘s friend circle & great rapport with other sporting celebrities is no secret. We have already seen his friendship with Neymar Jr. as the Brazilian soccer star has been an avid Hamilton fan. Although lately, one of Neymar’s moves seemed like an unintentional snub at the 7X champion. But Mercedes rubbished the rumors aside by posting a heartwarming post that reinstates Neymar & Lewis’ friendship.

During the Spanish GP, Neymar found himself inside the Mercedes garage, courtesy of Lewis Hamilton. In a hilarious yet heartwarming turn of events, the Briton guided his friend into the cockpit of his F1 car, carefully maneuvering through the tight confines. It seemed this was Hamilton’s way of making up for the unforgettable Monaco mix-up, where he inadvertently ignored Neymar’s attempt to catch his attention. Neymar’s decision to be Red Bull‘s guest during the race seemed to have caused the accidental snub. However, the duo’s banter and camaraderie quickly mended any lingering awkwardness.

Amidst the giggles and friendly banter, Mercedes took to Twitter, hinting at their longing for Neymar’s return. The team tweeted a video of Neymar attempting to sit in Hamilton’s W14 car, accompanied by a heartfelt caption: “Come back soon, Ney. 🙏” The message not only signifies the respect and admiration between the two sporting icons but also hints at the possibility of future encounters.

While Neymar Jr. may have missed out on personal interaction with Hamilton in Monaco, the pleasant gesture from Mercedes AMG serves as a reminder that the world of sports transcends boundaries, bringing athletes together in unexpected and heartwarming ways. Even though Neymar is a charming personality and one of Lewis Hamilton’s close friends, a new dynamic seems to be unfolding for the Briton.

Lewis Hamilton’s Unexpected Brewing Bromance 

While Neymar’s foray into the F1 scene lit up the atmosphere, another captivating subplot emerged—the budding bromance between Lewis Hamilton and Max Verstappen. These two fierce competitors, often seen battling on the track, surprised everyone with their lighthearted camaraderie.

Following Verstappen’s victory at the Spanish GP, both drivers shared the podium and, interestingly, shared smiles and laughter.

With more races on the horizon, we eagerly await to see if Lewis Hamilton continues this bromance sentiment with his arch-rival Verstappen. Still, if Lewis can bury the hatchet with Max as he did with Neymar, things may get interesting in F1 on a positive note. Do you think this may ever happen?
