Formula 1 drivers are of a different breed. Naturally, when you’ve worked towards a goal for the entirety of your life, it does starts defining that person. Even though F1 drivers do get a lot of stick for living their lives with tunnel vision, they’re all human beings after all. And no one’s a better example of this than the 7x Champion, Lewis Hamilton.

Lewis Hamilton was in a long-term relationship with American singer-songwriter Nicole Scherzinger. However, in 2015, the duo announced that they’d be splitting after almost being together for a decade. You’d expect Hamilton would’ve drowned himself in F1, perfecting his craft to forget his sorrows. Well, that wasn’t exactly the case.

As it turns out, Hamilton turned towards an exclusive celebrity dating app, Raya. A source revealed to The Sun, “Lewis has been swiping a lot of socialites in London and uses it when traveling. He’s happy being single, but would like to find The One eventually.”

Raya claims to be “an online membership-bred community for dating, networking, and making new friends,” that’s exclusive to only celebrities.
