Mercedes has taken Twitter by storm! They put Lewis Hamilton in a distinct Harry Styles reference that is now garnering different reactions from the audience.
The last race proved Hamilton’s mettle as a driver, where he produced consecutive fastest laps and ended P5. However, his lap 1 troubles, after which he suggested retiring the car, did not go unnoticed by fans. In that moment, the Briton had arguably given up before putting on a stellar display to make it to the top.

Hamilton’s disappointment is understandable, given he is facing car troubles for the first time in years. The Briton has been unable to fight for the top spot in the last 6 races. Though the Spanish GP did provide him with some hope, team Mercedes still have a long way to go with the pace. Understandably, several Hamilton fans sympathize with their icon and often send out words of support.

The inverted house picture has become pretty viral. This picture happens to be the album cover of Harry Styles’ new album titled “Harry’s House”. In the original picture, we could see the famous singer posing where Lewis is. Now, several memes have emerged from the tweet.
They should keep the constructors trophies, not the drivers'.

Mercedes’ pace looked promising in Spain
Notably, Mercedes’ performance in the Spanish GP looked promising. The car seemed to carry an improved pace with remarkably lesser porpoising. Moreover, this was the first time Hamilton looked notably comfortable in the car, despite being marred by an initial bad start.

He lost several places and was almost 30 seconds off the other cars after a puncture spoiled his podium chances. However, after almost giving up, the Brit somehow sneaked into the top 4, surprising everyone. Though a DNF scare did not allow Hamilton to keep his position, his performance and attitude in the later stages looked rather promising.
