What Is the Dramatic Height Difference Between F1 Champion Lewis Hamilton & NBA King LeBron James?

Lewis Hamilton finished the Monaco Grand Prix where he started it, at P8. The Mercedes team dealt with yet another race full of bouncing issues. If the Spanish Grand Prix was a step forward, then Monaco Grand Prix was two steps back.

The Brackley-based team needs to come up with a solution quickly to extract the full potential of the car. To unwind after the race, the seven-time world champion was enjoying his time in Monaco with none other than the 4 time NBA Champion LeBron James.

How much taller is LeBron James than Lewis Hamilton?

Lewis has been in the limelight for more than a decade now and a famous individual like him has famous friends. We often see the world champion spending time with celebrities and sports stars. Quite recently, the Billion Dollar Man was seen playing golf with NFL superstar Tom Brady.

So it was hardly a surprise when we saw the Mercedes man hanging out with LeBron James after the Monaco Grand Prix.

Photographed together, the serial winners were standing on a balcony. The Los Angeles Lakers star stood next to Lewis with his hand around his shoulder. And fans could not help but notice the massive difference between the two. So to answer the question, LeBron stands tall at 2.06 meters, while lewis is 1.74 meters tall.

Many consider these two the greatest of all time in their respective sports as they stand above most. But while standing next to each other, the difference in their builds is something we could not fathom. When converted to foot, LeBron is about 6′9″ and Lewis is 5′8″. That’s a massive difference, which somehow is not as evident in the photo.

Mercedes bouncing needs to go!

The Briton complained about the bouncing throughout the Monaco practice sessions. The problem was momentarily resolved for the Spanish Grand Prix but was back in a different avatar on the streets of Monte Carlo.

It was partly because of the bumpy track of Monaco as well, but Lewis is hoping the problem will go away. “I am praying that the car doesn’t feel like it does here because here it has felt the worst it has so far with the bumps.”

“I am looking forward to some more open track and I am praying that it is not as bumpy as here.” said the Mercedes pilot.

Let’s hope Baku is a better race for Mercedes and the rest of the grid, as a lot of teams would want to forget the unpredictable race in Monaco.
