Mercedes F1 driver Lewis Hamilton is currently single, and pop sensation, Shakira is also enjoying her single life after splitting from soccer player, Gerard Pique. Meanwhile, there are plenty of rumors of Hamilton and Shakira dating. Although they are keeping their relationship private, he could use this as a major weapon to negotiate a contract with Mercedes.
Hamilton’s current contract ends with Mercedes in 2023. Although the Team Principal of Mercedes, Toto Wolff confirmed a possible deal with Hamilton, the 7-time World Champion could still negotiate using his relationship with Shakira.
Notably, they first met at the Billboard Music Awards in Las Vegas. Then, Shakira attended the Miami GP earlier. They could be seen partying together in several viral pictures. Recently, Shakira attended the Spanish GP in Barcelona, where Hamilton finished 2nd. The dating rumors between the two are strong at the moment; however, they have yet to confirm it.
In a recent YouTube live, Peter Windsor said, “Is dating Shakira good for contract negotiations for Lewis as it brings major fan following from the Latin-Spanish demographic.” Notably, Shakira has over 300 million followers on Instagram, and she is a global superstar. Hamilton will certainly attract more sponsors if he confirms his relationship. On the other hand, dating a global icon could bring more drama into his life, which could affect his F1 career as well.
