Without a shadow of a doubt, Lewis Hamilton is one of the most famous athletes in the world. The Knight has won seven world titles, making him one of the most decorated drivers on the grid. So it shouldn’t be a surprise when other celebrities are over the moon when they get a chance to meet the Mercedes driver. One such celebrity was Samuel L. Jackson.

The two met up in Monaco, where Hamilton lives. Some of their friends accompanied them as they enjoyed dinner in each other’s company.

A much-needed break for Lewis

Following a disappointing end to the Hungarian GP, Hamilton found himself back at his home in Monte Carlo. He will use the summer break to relax and come back stronger for the upcoming Belgian GP.

After having a night out with the likes of Jackson and Palmer, the 36-year-old may have left the events at the Hungaroring in the rearview mirror.

The next race will take place on the 27th of August in Spa. This three-week break will give the world champion time to recover from the Hungarian GP and redeem himself. Hamilton will look to bag another win for the Brackley-based outfit in Belgium, and further extend his lead in the driver’s championship.

What are your predictions for Lewis for the next race of the 2021 season? Will he have an underwhelming race? Or will he take home the checkered flag and earn himself and his Mercedes colleagues another win this season? Let us know in the comments below.
