Usain Bolt is one of the greatest athletes on this planet. However, when he was on the podium of the United States Grand Prix in 2017, he was asked by Lewis Hamilton to teach the 7x World Champion and trick or two from Bolt’s repertoire.
On the podium, Hamilton can be heard asking Bolt to teach him his signature celebration. “Bro, we gotta do the…you gotta teach me to do ‘the Bolt’.”. Usain Bolt can be seen saying, “Alright let’s do it!”. And in one legendary moment, we saw two Champions on the podium, doing that iconic celebration.
This isn’t the only time when Usain Bolt has graced the sport of Formula 1. Recently, something that happened to him in 2017, may have a massive impact on the sport and particularly World Champion Max Verstappen.
Max Verstappen may lose his 2021 title to Lewis Hamilton because of a weird Usain Bolt connection
After Red Bull were found guilty of breaching the 2021 cost cap regulations, everyone wants to know what will happen to Verstappen’s maiden title. Even though the chances are slim, Usain Bolt may have set a very dangerous precedent for the Dutch Lion.

As per gpblog.com, “Bolt, one of the most successful runners ever, lost his gold medal in 2017, which he won in the four hundred meters in Beijing in 2008. The reason was that another rider of the Jamaican team, Nesta Carter, was found guilty of doping.” (translated via Google Translate)
But what minor sporting penalty can the FIA impose on Red Bull? It can be a range of sanctions against the Bulls. However, the penalties that Red Bull and Max Verstappen can be highly varied. That is to say, it can be a small reprimand or even Verstappen losing his World Championship. It is still to be seen however, how the FIA will react.
