Lewis Hamilton makes a shocking Kim Kardashian confession before beginning his 2026 Formula One campaign.
Ahead of the Australian Grand Prix, the British racing driver shared his thoughts, motivation and goals about the new season with Ferrari after a disappointing debut.
Despite all the setbacks in the 2025 season, Hamilton and Ferrari arrive in Melbourne off the back of a very positive pre-season, having enjoyed strong reliability and mileage, while also topping the timesheet in both Barcelona and Bahrain, Crash reported.
The 41-year-old said, “We got great mileage done in winter testing. An amazing amount of work has been done by the team back at the factory, but also delivering on those tests, and we’ve learnt a lot from last year. We’re leaving behind the bad and moving forwards with the good. We’re sharp and prepared.”
He also noted that this time it is different from the first year, as he has much nicer feelings now after spending a year with the team, understanding their culture and ways of working. He believed that they are in a good place now together as a team, and he felt “much happier.”
Hamilton, who during his break made headlines due to his “heating up” romance with Kim Kardashian, was asked about the positivity behind his re-energised and refreshed tone.
The seven-time world champion replied, “A combination of things. The break was really positive. It was my surroundings, it was the people that I was with. It’s not my first rodeo, so it’s understanding how to flip things.”
“It’s not that easy to do each time, but I always talk about cultivating a positive mental attitude, and that’s what I focus on in my winter. A lot of it came from training… Rediscovering myself was a big part of it as well. As I said in one of my posts, I kind of lost sight for a second of who I was, and that person’s gone, so you won’t see that person again,” he added.
After widespread relationship rumours, the former Mercedes driver and Skims owner launched their romance at Super Bowl LX in February.
An Entertainment Tonight source revealed that the couple enjoyed a getaway at Lake Powell in Arizona and had a great time travelling together and “are growing closer romantically.”
