Lewis Hamilton Breaks Down His Tattoos | GQ

[@sharathnathan6339]

If Kimi did this "Bwoah this is a tattoo" End of interview.

[@Stars-ui6iv]

Soooi true😂😂😂 that's why I like him amongst other reasons

[@thoughtfulthoughts4645]

He has tattoos aswell

[@NotSosigRamsey]

Only if he gets an icecream after

[@patriklis28]

Tattoo!!! Tattoo hey I need a tattoo!!!! TATTOO!!!!

[@justinl2009]

A tattoo on his back that says "Drinkless but not winless"

[@marmis9147]

That tattoo honoring his dad is truly amazing

He also got the clock to read at 11:11 which is a heavenly number

[@TheHaters112]

No.

[@danlanch]

The dad tattoo is incredible

[@thoughtfulthoughts4645]

Yeah it is

[@MrsSlumdog]

It's beautiful. I read a comment somewhere after Lewis hit the 92 wins that said: Anthony Hamilton is the father we all want to have or to become. That made me cry, for the second time. I cried when I saw it happen. I'm a woman who will never know who her father is A man like Anthony Hamilton will never let his child alone.

[@TJ-sc1pm]

Am I the only one mesmerized by his necklace!!?!

[@pluto_dp]

anyone knows the necklace name? I'm looking for it everywhere..

[@GLUA14]

SANPi3 Its called a herringbone necklace

[@trulsdirio]

ASAP Rocky really made these heringbone necklaces popular again. One of my favorite pieces in my collection! Mine's just way smaller. xD

[@masterdan1803]

T J The whole time I was looking at his necklace and just thinking “That is pretty cool”

does anyone know about the size of his necklace?

[@AC-yd2cm]

He has like every cliche tattoo that exists but it works

[@franciscocarlos7875]

A C L Mi

[@djpfarner9670]

It works because they are all really well done. Most people wouldn't have been able to make this many good decisions in a row. Especially with his status since celebrities can easily get a free tattoo. Just ask Justin Bieber.

[@thoughtfulthoughts4645]

That clock piece honouring his dad was well though put and unique

[@JackieChan-nw7ec]

I agree but i think its just cause hes a cool guy he can pull it off better than most people

[@y_fam_goeglyd]

@@djpfarner9670 He said his brother-in-law is a tattoo artist. I'm guessing that he's done the most elaborate ones. You need to be able to trust your tattooist, and I guess that a close relative is about the best you can do.

[@thulanimbuli3583]

his tattoo about his father really stands out because of what it means.

[@piperlee4213]

Lewis Hamilton is a true sportsman, he’s absolutely iconic. We’ll miss him when he eventually retires 😭

[@slyarsenal]

Redefine the sport? You can't redefine Ayrton Senna, the father of all F1 drivers and the true artist of the sport

[@sheriff5119]

Footballogist What are you...10 years old?? Do you not understand written english? What has Senna got to do with it????

[@sheriff5119]

Footballogist The father of F1, really?? hmm....not according to the experts. The experts being Race Engineers, strategist's, Team principles etc. Hamilton in the SAME car would BEAT Senna!

[@steviegbcool]

how has he done that?

[@billybollox5216]

You must be new

Wouldn’t call him an athlete.

[@TheBryanbas]

Lesley Musonza you’d be silly not to. Racing drivers (particularly f1 and endurance racers) are ridiculously fit

Lewis needs to keep racing until the wheels fall off, he’s the face of F1 right now and will go down as one of the greats after he retires...

[@777RY]

Dont let the ferrari fanboys see this comment.

[@deathbylust700]

you are right. he is a legend and the face of F1 and probably will be for a couple years after his retirement as a driver. he's still going to be involved in f1 but not as a driver. honesty he should go for the longest record for oldest f1 driver

[@GloomGaiGar]

One of the faces of F1. Fixed.

[@thoughtfulthoughts4645]

No matter how much people hate him for whatever reason as he alot more humbled than other sportsman. He will be one of the greats

[@avinashnair4648]

How so?

Everyone who doesn't know him well dont realize how humble he really is

Yep, you've got it

[@sheriff5119]

Tinashe Dube You got it spot on bro! Imagine being the only black guy in the field, surrounded by white people....& the odd asian/indian, ala Tiger Woods, your every MOVE scrutinised. Also, like Tiger you are head & shoulders ABOVE the whole field. You create a scenario where haters like yabadoo come out of the woodwork. Sad but true!

[@leolundgren3989]

Fantastic sportsman. I remember when he was the fish out of water and just started driving in F1. He had no tattoos, he barely had any hair and he didn't seem to be into fashion all that much. Now he looks like someone who not only takes care of his professional skills, but also his entire image and lifestyle. That is very honourable to me and more sportsmen should follow his example. They have the power to be really good role models for both young and old.

[@twotimothys]

He didn’t have any hair and now he does because he had a hair transplant. That and all his sudden trendy tattoos =midlife crisis. His shirtless self showing off all his back tattoos after his last win was classless and desperate for attention. He is a ball of cheese.

[@Man-ix5mc]

@@georgewba6245 Lauda wasn't really the same since August 1, 1976. He could've been 4 time tho.

[@OldStreetDoc]

21Carneiro Hamilton would likely say that Senna would be the greatest. He may well have been the most naturally talented GP driver ever, but his life and career sadly being cut so short, it’s allowed drivers like Hamilton to be inspired to surpass Senna. Lewis I think will be ultimately the most accomplished driver in history. Until he inspires someone to surpass his history of course. In terms of talent, if they aren’t fairly equal it’s becoming less & less of a gap for sure. Even Ayrton’s family have said that, which HAD to e a difficult thing for them to do.

[@bZLxcz]

It's amazing how people can dislike somebody for no good reason, the man is a legend and people still hate on him, everything he does is multiplied by 100

[@popefrancis4080]

@Samanthaflower thats not the reason why he gets hate. Many have the feeling that he is only succesfull because of his car. Maybe him being black is the reason for a tiny part of the people but most just dont like him because he is winning everything and it becomes kind of boring after 6 years of total dominance.

[@lukarancini1630]

@Samanthaflower Maybe in the USA, in Europe we love each other. The main reason people hate him, is that he is a really good driver, with a dominant car, so he wins a lot. What I hate about him are his catch-phrases "AW thank you guys, all love blah blah" "Best fans in the world, blah blah" it's kinda cringy and cheesy XD

[@lukarancini1630]

@Samuel Melcher Well yeah, cmon. Exept for the Balkans, most countries don't hate each other. (love might be a big word tho)

[@lukarancini1630]

Samuel Melcher you are totally right, picking these things into account. Maybe I have a really positive way of seeing the world and Europe in general. I think that generally speaking you got more love here than in America, or maybe even that is my way of seeing it.
