Earlier this year, the Mercedes driver featured in a Valentino campaign. He shared the moment to his Instagram followers, with the caption:
"Pink drip ~ Thank you @pppiccioli and the entire @maisonvalentino family for the warm welcome. Always knew I looked good in this colour"
Prior to this, he also posted about the same collaboration saying:
"Great things happen when we embrace our authentic selves, but even greater things happen when we come together to exchange our visions, values, and creativity. I am honoured to be joining forces with Creative Director and friend, @pppiccioli and @maisonvalentino, a brand I’ve long admired, to celebrate the #ValentinoPinkPPCollection.
"I always strive to collaborate with likeminded teams who are committed to making the world a better place, regardless of the barriers that stand in our way. So, to come together and collaborate with Valentino on this powerful campaign is really special"
Hamilton had a tricky 2022 F1 season with many car issues, however the team saw some significant improvements in the latter stages of the season so fans are optimistic for next year.
