Tennis superstar Maria Sharapova, a known face around the F1 paddock, was spotted enjoying the Monaco Grand Prix Weekend. Honoring the jewel of the triple crown of motorsports, the Tennis beauty descended to make her presence felt at the principality again after her outing here last year. An avid F1 follower and Lewis Hamilton’s dear friend Sharapova has posted a montage of pictures from her Grand Prix experience on her Instagram. The latest one can leave you intrigued.

The snaps included a coastline of Monaco, a picture of herself wearing the noise-canceling headset and another one where the pit crew was in action. Her Monaco series also included her wish for long-time friend Lewis Hamilton. In the picture she can be seen wearing a red dress and in the middle of an interview with Hamilton. She captioned the story saying, “Good luck for the weekend, @lewishamilton”

However, in a humorous stride, she posted another picture from the same interview where the two were captured at a dull moment. She captioned it, “A sad pop album in the works” because that was the apparent mood of the picture is looked at in isolation.

But she isn’t the only one adding humor to an otherwise neutral or miserable situations. Her friend Lewis did the same when asked to pick between two rather disconnected entities.

A podium or learning Italian? Lewis Hamilton picks the more difficult one.

A 103-time GP winner has had a 2 year long winless streak thanks to his current team Mercedes for not being able to crack the code and deliver. To add to that, he is having the worst outing in his 16-year-long career. The man shifting to the Italian team Ferrari may be following in Fred Vasseur’s footsteps to learn Italian to blend in Maranello, but when asked to pick between learning a new language and getting a podium this season, Lewis dropped truth bombs.

Talking to ESPN, he said, “I think learning Italian’s going to be the hardest, probably. But at the moment getting to the podium probably is the less likely one.”

This prediction might change this weekend at Monaco as the Mercedes has shown great pace throughout the practice session and qualifying. Far better than their other outings this season. Do you think Lewis Hamilton can change the fate of Mercedes around the streets of Monaco?
