Last week, Lewis Hamilton was spotted in the middle of the Colorado Desert, grooving to the best tunes on the planet. While the man-made many heads turn with his ever-so-fashionable entry, he posted a photo dump beginning with a rather eye-catching picture, which made fans swoon over it. And now, another from the F1 world has taken the Lewis Hamilton route and declared himself a water baby in a shirtless update.

We have seen Lewis Hamilton posting shirtless pictures, which is believed to be a curse to the grid whenever he posts such pictures. And now, an F1 Pundit whose fame has multiplied due to Netflix Docuseries, Drive to Survive has followed suit. Will Buxton, in season 4 of DTS, the man said, “In Formula 1… if you finish in 1st position… [dramatic pause] …you will win the race.” This obvious stating of very simple facts broke the internet and has now taken a life of its own.

While everyone has taken a breather before Baku, Buxton is no exception to that. The F1 Journalist took to Twitter to post a picture of himself with the caption “No blue tick, only blue sky. Holiday mode still engaged.” While the caption had little to do with how fans went into a frenzy, it still was a relevant one after the bird app saw many celebrities lose their verification.
