Over his career, Lewis Hamilton has not only made his name as one of the greatest ever F1 drivers but also become a celebrity in his own right. This is reflected in how many people across different walks of life have shown their love and respect for the 40-year-old.

The most recent names added to this list are Beyoncé and Jay-Z, who were both present at the recently concluded Las Vegas GP. The couple met F1 CEO Stefano Domenicali before joining Hamilton for a hot lap.

Following the appearance, Beyoncé shared her "love and gratitude" for Hamilton. The 44-year-old took to Instagram to post glimpses of her visit to the Vegas paddock and her time with Hamilton on Tuesday. In the caption, she wrote:

"Love and gratitude to the best to ever do it! Lewis Hamilton #44!"

On track in Sin City, Lewis Hamilton endured one of his worst weekends of the season as the veteran qualified in dead last for the race. The 7x world champion made a brilliant start, jumping to P12 after a hectic Lap 1, but he failed to make much progress after that point.

Hamilton spent the majority of the race stuck behind the Sauber of Nico Hulkenberg, who eventually finished comfortably ahead of him, having eeked out an eight-second gap. The former Mercedes driver crossed the finish line in 10th to mark another underwhelming evening in 2025, but was promoted to P8 post-race after both Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri were disqualified.

Lewis Hamilton claimed that the Las Vegas GP was another "horrendous" one to add to the list in 2025. The Ferrari man explained that he struggled with the balance and braking on his SF-25 on Saturday.

Speaking to the media after the race, Hamilton shared a damning verdict about his 2025 season with the Maranello-based outfit.

"After the start, I struggled with balance. I was just really struggling with the brakes that we have, locking the fronts, locking the rears, there was just no in-between, no middle ground," said Hamilton [via Formula1.com].
"Horrendous weekend. Another one just to add to the list," he added.

After poor weekends in Brazil and Mexico previously, another difficult outing in Las Vegas was the last thing Hamilton needed in this final stage of the season. He sits sixth in the drivers' standings on 152 points with two rounds to go. This means he is 74 points behind his teammate Charles Leclerc in fifth and at great risk of being overtaken by Mercedes' Kimi Antonelli in seventh, who is only 15 points behind.
