Lewis Hamilton always brings some positivity to social media after a race- no matter how bad or how good. Always the first to share his thoughts after a weekend, the silence after the season finale has been concerning. Although understandable, Hamilton has made some nuanced comments from the shadows. After liking Nicholas Latifi’s plea for kindness in the sport, Hamilton has made yet another move.

This time, Hamilton has unfollowed everyone he knows on Instagram. It started with removing the official F1 account last week; but now, the number has dropped from over 700 to zero.

The behavior initially caused fans to have qualms about Hamilton’s retirement from the sport; further, Toto Wolff‘s comments on the matter didn’t help. Now, the concern has died down, yet Hamilton’s unusual conduct brings up question marks.

From removing everyone from Angela Cullen to Mercedes and all his other well-established friends, it is odd of Lewis Hamilton to do so. The wounds of the title race are surely fresh, yet fans have begun to worry about their driver.

Although worried, fans tried to make light of the situation. The first comparison was to Taylor Swift, oddly. Back when the music artist was about to release her album ‘Reputation’ to clap back at the people who doubted her, she took a similar path. Fans were quick to draw the parallels as well.

Others brought out some well thought memes.

Although this is out of character for the driver, we hope to hear from him soon. Toto Wolff had spoken, “he will never overcome the pain and the distress that was caused on Sunday.” Hopefully, that isn’t the case with Hamilton

The sport awaits to hear from its legendary driver; moreover, it waits to watch him fight for the eighth title once again in the 2022 season. Hopefully, the standby will be short.
