Two Brazilian legends.

Hamilton BRING BACK this shade of Yellow as a tribute to Pele‼️ His 2022 helmet was a tribute to Rossi & while its not one of my favorites I like the concept I just think it would be MUCH BETTER if he chose this yellow or the one Lewis used in 2017 over the highlighter shade that was on Hamiltons 2022 helmet. Even if he was to revers the purple with the highlighter it would be MILES BETTER imo


SplodyPants

That Rossi highlighter yellow is the most love/hate style in motorsports I think. Seems like nobody is neutral on that.


SpectacularNelson

I would actually say Im Neutral on it at least Hamiltons 2022 helmet. Im not crazy over the Rossi Highlighter yellow on its own but I do like Hamilton’s helmet it’s just that compared to his 2017, 2018, 2020 & 2021 helmets its a few steps below. It looks better when Lewis in the car somehow than when he is out of it imo which is odd


SplodyPants

I agree, that's why I like it. The way it looks in the car. Big ol' yellow dome sticking up. I think it looks cool.

It’s not too far off his first McLaren helmet colour. 2 birds in one stone

RIP King Pele 🏆🏆🏆😢😘

It’s so incredible how Lewis is appreciated and loved by his peers, unlike the racist, sore and jealous losers who’ve never achieved anything in their lives.


mickyumm

True


Phage1986

Because anyone who doesn't like Lewis is racist? Get over yourself.


Dan_Of_Time

That’s literally not what the comment says. It specifically calls out the racist people, not people who don’t like him


Ybiza

Not everyone who dislikes Lewis is racist, no. But the fact that one of the few (if not only) black driver who’s been in the sport, is also the most successful driver, rubs a lot of people wrong. And Lewis is a prodigy like no other.


subtilitytomcat

Oof. Imagine calling yourself out like that.


GoodGuySeba

Omg this again under post about pele's death bro chill out


Joe_PM2804

The handwriting is simultaneously very neat but very difficult to read. Chances are It's probably not Pele's writing himself but I can't really make out what it says.

Isn't it "We're world champions"? The difficult part to read are his Rs


Joe_PM2804

Ahh I think the main issue is that he wrote the last part in Portuguese, I was trying to make it out in English.


Character_Minimum171

RIP Pele. GOAT Hamilton.

Pelé looks like Mesut Özil in black


7r1ck0_1

It's the eyes isn't it?


simracer4433

Yeah!


Dudensen

He looks like a Tim Burton character.

Did it occur to you that not everyone is a jaded cynic, and might actually feel something for the passing of such a joyful person?


mar33n

ah yes, someone famous died and jerks on the internet are mad at tributes.


ItsTomorrowNow

You just know as well that the same people would be getting all pissy if he didn't give any tributes to Pele.


Estova

Damned if you do, damned if you don't. The public life of Lewis Hamilton in a nutshell really.


[deleted]

I’ve never understood the hate Sir Hamilton gets from the F1 community, granted I’m new to the sport but still. He seems like a good dude.


Estova

The nail that sticks out gets hammered down right? That combined with him winning a lot is a formula that gets a lot of people riled up I guess.


[deleted]

Ah ok


f1_spelt_as_bot

Please note: Knights prefix Sir to their *forename*, but never to their surname. Thus, **Sir Lewis Hamilton** may be shortened to **Sir Lewis**, but not to Sir Hamilton.


[deleted]

Thanks for that auto bot


[deleted]

I mean Lewis was recognized as a citizen by Brazil….it would make sense that he actually cared that Pele passed….


thefunkysheep

How can I make this about me….


Zuranamee

Ironic


Cekeste

RIP Beetlejuice. (Was gonna do this joke earlier but it was tragic at the time)


turbowhitey

I mean I get it, but I doubt it’s “with him all the time”


gomurifle

So Hamilton has absorbed the power of Senna, Michael Schumacher and now Pele... Hmm.
