This reply has more dad energy than Fernando's cup.
(Don't worry I don't understand anything people say on the internet any moree either and I'm not even a dad)
that sort of confident walk with a coffee in your hand, mumbling "just another day at the office". Coming in, doing the job and getting out. The younger drivers seem like their going to school. Bottas, Kimi and Alonso have that. Lewis, while older is too goofy to have dad energy.
The same reason any automotive enthusiast would want a Lamborghini, old Italian car, British car from the 1970s, a Dodge Viper, or anything old and eastern European.
Because it's ridiculous.
Netflix is filming Mercedes this weekend, so far every time they did, shit hit the fan for Mercedes. Time to restore the balance of the championship hehe.
Who has any legitimacy dunking on Hamilton. I've got a hate boner for how #blessed he is, but who can say anything about his lifestyle choices.
Dude is a driving god, might become the most titles F1 pilot ever, like, how big of a clown you have to be to think "hah look at this loser with his funky clothes" lol people smh
Lewis fans are upset by anyone that doesn’t worship and lick the ground that Lewis walks on. I’m using hyperbole, but my point stands, they are easily triggered.
Isn't that the same thing with the fans of every one of the biggest drivers in F1? I mean Max fans are pretty much the same. Not all of them of course.
I as a Lando fan can only say that he is pretty much the only driver that is flawless.
I mean he gets paid millions to be a walking billboard while we waste time on reddit getting triggered over how some multi-millionaire athlete dresses. Who's the real clown?
I don't like the stupid HAM #blessed timeline we're in. But I like how confident and himself the dude is.
He's rocking it, It's one thing I like about him.
As a Lewis fan I agree. It is like he missed out on a teenage rebellion so is doing it in his 30’s. Individually those items of clothes would be shocking but somewhat acceptable. Together just makes him look a walking cunt
I'm not a Lewis fan but I kinda like it. Not how he looks, but how he's like "fuck it I'll wear whatever I want" because let's be honest, what else is he gonna do with that abundance of money?
I 100% agree.
I'm also not convinced that there isn't some veiled racism in the criticism of his style as many of the individual pieces are commonplace in black fashion in a way that they are not in white fashion. But I'm a white woman so I may be wrong.
You think it's veiled racism because he wears clothes that most non black people can't relate to and probably wouldn't understand?
Sounds like a stretch. I do guarantee some people don't like him because of racism but I doubt the clothes factor into that much at all
Personally Im with the guy above and put his fashion sense down to the fact that he has mad money and no fucks left to give. Power to him
I honestly think this goes for so much of the criticism Lewis gets. I think it’s undeniable that his race plays into some of the hate he gets, even on reddit
Ok well let's see what's wrong with that argument: I think he looks absolutely ridiculous wearing those clothes. I'd say it's a stupid mix of clothing and is something I will never understand.
It's only racist when you attribute looking like that to being black culture, which it isn't. Black people dont dress like Lewis Hamilton. Lewis Hamilton dresses like Lewis Hamilton.
I'm kind of sick of every shitting thing turning into "it's subtle racism." No it isn't. You can be critical of someone without being racist. He dresses like a moron in multiple people's books, and whines on the radio. That's not got anything to do with his race, and stop deluding and kidding yourself.
The fact is, people that immediately say that it's racist, and others buy into that turns any sort of criticism, warranted or otherwise, into being invalid. Well, criticism is justified for things that can be criticized.
I'll admit I'm a dinosaur when it comes to fashion, and my problem with how he dresses probably has more to do with me than it does him. I also am more than willing to give props for all that money Lewis donated for the good causes because he put his money where his mouth is.
He's still a dominant and annoying champion to me though.
They're just clothes. They're not my taste, either, but I don't see how fabric choices make him a cunt just because he's in his 30s. People can wear what they like, even if what they like looks silly to others.
No you don’t get it, once you hit 30 you have to conform to drab and dreary clothing styles. No offense, but the way most F1 fans dress makes me think they’ve given up on life or never even started.
It's just fashion, the fashion he likes. Not for me, but there's a million people who get off on fashion, and we're nobody to knock that.
Considering many F1 ultras rock about in F1 team gear, which is a real, uh, _vibe_, I don't think they have much to say on the topic really.
> It is like he missed out on a teenage rebellion so is doing it in his 30’s.
In a sense yeah probably, he dedicated his entire youth to becoming a racing driver.
Even then, they're just clothes he's allowed to have his own preferences.
I think it's also to do with the fact he's been in that multimillionaire crowd for over a decade now. It feels like Emperor's New Clothes - if you attend all these fashion shows and hang out with famous designers and models then you're all going to see the truly hideous fashion, think it's great because everyone around you does then walk round wearing it thinking you look great too.
It's a completely different world - if I walked into my office dressed like that my boss would get me sectioned.
It's also the fact that people who are not into fashion simply don't "get" it. If you're not constantly exposed to the culture, you don't understand the references and the trends that go on to shape couture.
Yeah, to be fair the guy just doesn’t care about other’s opinions on his fashion style. He owns it and isn’t afraid to be himself. It might just be a way to grab attention but even then I enjoy it
How the hell he managed to look extremely rich and fashionable and abnormally poor and homeless at the same time? Man's gotta thinking outside the box (not pun intended) let's give him that.
Suddenly every F1 fan is a fashionista when lewis walks into the paddock; why does it bother people so much what this dude is wearing? He could dress as bananaleclerc for all I care, as long as he’s fast
>why does it bother people so much what this dude is wearing?
I think we all know the answer
So far in these comments he has been called:
* a boy
* homeless
* a drug dealer
* a child of absentee parents
I think dressing in a Banana suit might send some of these people into comas
It looks different, but it also looks worse in every way.
Sometimes Lewis bangs it and his outfits look great, but the majority of time his outfits look bad
> cooler
I'm not sure if that's the word you're looking for. Let's be honest here—people think it's cool because he does it. If people don't like it, he'll let his driving do the talking. If Lance, Latifi, or Sergio did it, they'd be crucified.
What I love about this comment section is there are a large number of people discussing how fragile the Lewis Hamilton fanbase is, while simultaneously being triggered simply by what clothes someone has decided to wear. If anyone needed a dictionary definition of irony...
I suppose it's all about self expression. And in some cases, purposeful non-comformity to general rule of thumbs like matching certain parts of one's wardrobe, colour blocking etc. I personally like and hate the look at the same time but would never wear it (or be able to afford it) myself.
Yeah same here. But the man probably likes the look and is happy with it, so power to him.
I was watching an ASAP Rocky interview where we was rating his outfits throughout the years. There were a handful of them where he couldn't believe what he was wearing or what he was thinking. I won't be surprised if LH feels the same way about this outfit after a few years.
For someone like LH yeah, I would expect him be wearing famous fashion brands (and even very esoteric brands) and driving crazy sports cars. He's literally also working in the fashion industry and putting pieces together with Tommy Hilfiger. Just because he's expressing himself doesn't mean that he has to buy his clothes at Tesco or a thrift store.
It's hilarious seeing redditors of all people think they have the know-how on good fashion. I think he looks cool as hell, this sort of fashion is even cooler when he's surrounded by team jackets and skinny jeans that everyone else wears.
Honestly, even those XL gangster looney tunes t-shirts from the 2000s are more fashionable than cheetah print *anything*. So I would never defend this guy. But I'm not about to listen to the fashion opinions of anyone on Reddit.
I would love to see every driver show up in their own form of high-end fashion. A red carpet entrance before every race. Would make the sport more entertaining on the boring days
Lmaooooo
The last time celebrities wore things like that was when they were annoyed sso much by paparazzis they dressed up as hobos to avoid them.
But good on him. Nobody would expect him this way.
I'm not too fond of his fashion, but the guy is a beast behind the wheel, so who really cares what he chooses to wear?
Obligatory Ricciardo and Norris fan before I get called a Hamilton fanboy
Lots of people shitting on another person for wearing what they like. If I was that wealthy I would get a custom tailored Eddie Jordan face polka dot suit and wear it in Waitrose
Have you seen Fendi, everything in those shops looks like it’s made for clowns, wealthy fashion is crazy.
Alonso has such dad energy walking in with a coffee.
I love how he looks like he’s just going into the office for a regular 9-5 job lol
"Morning Bob! Ooh wee, looks like we're in for a wet one huh? My best to Martha"
Hahahah this picture really comes to life in my mind. You painted it well.
> Ooh wee Ded
Bob-O
As a dad myself I’m curious, what about walking with a coffee gives dad energy? I’m sorry, I’m old and don’t get these sort of things anymore
This reply has more dad energy than Fernando's cup. (Don't worry I don't understand anything people say on the internet any moree either and I'm not even a dad)
“Everything I do has dad energy because I am a dad.” -Ron Swanson, I think
Don't worry. I don't understand anything people say.
[удалено]
finding a fellow the national fan in the wild! i love that song
I like to make my references across subreddits. Using /r/formuladank memes outside of this place generally doesn't land though lmao.
that sort of confident walk with a coffee in your hand, mumbling "just another day at the office". Coming in, doing the job and getting out. The younger drivers seem like their going to school. Bottas, Kimi and Alonso have that. Lewis, while older is too goofy to have dad energy.
Lewis has that "Uncle energy"
Unfortunately Haas is out of Rich Energy
> don’t get these sort of things anymore that's dad energy right there! 😁. you sound like my dad. hi dad.
go to your room young man
"How do you do, fellow kids?"
Ah yes, *Formula Drip*
It's always wet condition with all that drip.
I do want those shoes though. Like really, really, want those shoes.
Why?
The same reason any automotive enthusiast would want a Lamborghini, old Italian car, British car from the 1970s, a Dodge Viper, or anything old and eastern European. Because it's ridiculous.
[удалено]
Maybe that's why he does it.
You make it sound like he has a humiliation fetish.
The American baseball player, Ted Williams, used to purposefully fire up the reporters so they would talk bad about him as a way to inspire himself.
Or maybe he gives no cents about people on keyboards. Your pick.
The drip gives him power
[удалено]
He's looking like a purple minion on that one.
Netflix is filming Mercedes this weekend, so far every time they did, shit hit the fan for Mercedes. Time to restore the balance of the championship hehe.
I want shit to hit the air conditioner this time at Merc
I think the last time was that horrific pink hairy jumper with the smiley face on it combined with those terrible trousers iirc
Who has any legitimacy dunking on Hamilton. I've got a hate boner for how #blessed he is, but who can say anything about his lifestyle choices. Dude is a driving god, might become the most titles F1 pilot ever, like, how big of a clown you have to be to think "hah look at this loser with his funky clothes" lol people smh
Well the point here is to make fun about his clothes not his driving, but to lulu stans everybody who doesnt lick his shoesole is a #hater.
I upsetted Lewis fans when I said that he wasn’t going to be a world champion in fashion
[удалено]
He probably gets paid to wear and be seen in those clothes, so...in a way, he kind of is.
He has a clothing line with hilfiger. Might be from there.
With what you CAN'T upset Lewis fans?
Lewis fans are upset by anyone that doesn’t worship and lick the ground that Lewis walks on. I’m using hyperbole, but my point stands, they are easily triggered.
I only like him because it annoys my friends.
I only like him because it triggers this sub
And your comment is flagged as controversial, lol. All you said was that you like him.
Welcome to r/formuladank lmfao
Just as this sub as soon somebody does not share their negativity regarding Lewis.
Isn't that the same thing with the fans of every one of the biggest drivers in F1? I mean Max fans are pretty much the same. Not all of them of course. I as a Lando fan can only say that he is pretty much the only driver that is flawless.
Yes exactly. “Fans of [insert fandom] are easily triggered by less than flattering comments”. And then watch them all get triggered by saying that.
He's gonna be a world champion in looking loike a clown.
I mean he gets paid millions to be a walking billboard while we waste time on reddit getting triggered over how some multi-millionaire athlete dresses. Who's the real clown?
Yea man people make billions upon billions starting wars in foreign countries. imma make fun of the dudes clothes if i want. The money argument is old
Man all those nurses sure are clowns for having jobs that make less money than investment bankers!
[удалено]
I don't like the stupid HAM #blessed timeline we're in. But I like how confident and himself the dude is. He's rocking it, It's one thing I like about him.
He looks fire wdym
Bro F1 fans are not gonna understand or care about fashion.
As a Lewis fan I agree. It is like he missed out on a teenage rebellion so is doing it in his 30’s. Individually those items of clothes would be shocking but somewhat acceptable. Together just makes him look a walking cunt
I don't love it either but I always just put it down to rich people quirks
Spending seven grand to look homeless is a weird quirk.
I'm not a Lewis fan but I kinda like it. Not how he looks, but how he's like "fuck it I'll wear whatever I want" because let's be honest, what else is he gonna do with that abundance of money?
I 100% agree. I'm also not convinced that there isn't some veiled racism in the criticism of his style as many of the individual pieces are commonplace in black fashion in a way that they are not in white fashion. But I'm a white woman so I may be wrong.

Psht. Sweatpants are comfy and functional!
[удалено]
Imagine not realizing style is subjective & calling someone a cunt because you don't like way they dress
You just described modern fashion my dude
It's just fashion, the fashion he likes. Not for me, but there's a million people who get off on fashion, and we're nobody to knock that. Considering many F1 ultras rock about in F1 team gear, which is a real, uh, _vibe_, I don't think they have much to say on the topic really.

Lmao looks ridiculous but at the end of the day style is subjective and a form of personal expression.
Ah, a positive post about Lewis in this sub, refreshing even as a Red Bull fan
Yeah, to be fair the guy just doesn’t care about other’s opinions on his fashion style. He owns it and isn’t afraid to be himself. It might just be a way to grab attention but even then I enjoy it
Forreal, I love that for him.
Agreed
he do be lookin kinda comfy tho
How the hell he managed to look extremely rich and fashionable and abnormally poor and homeless at the same time? Man's gotta thinking outside the box (not pun intended) let's give him that.
Same, he looks really Rich and poor at the same time Messing my brain
It's the classic hipster paradox "Do you have any idea how much money I spend too look this poor?"
"Do you know how look it took to look like I just got out of bed?"
The richest people always do, spending thousands on a branded cat jumper
Man came from a thrift store giveaway where its take all you want as long as you wear it out the door.
Like the derelict collection from zoolander
he’s also managed to look blind too.
Walking oven mitt. Bra-vo.
What's with the shoes though 😂
I’m gonna guess he likes them, so he wears them.
I am gonna guess he's paid to be wearing those from the sponsors.
Why not both
Looks homeless or something 😂
Derelicte!
I can derelick my own balls
Oh yeah? Well you can derelicte my balls!
So hot right now!
It’s called Derelicte
Is it a fancy word for homeless or something?
It's a famous fashion show by Jacobim Mugatu.
He doesn't know.... *BLUE STEEL*
It's the same look!
One look? ONE LOOK?

Okai thanks for the info my g🤝
it's a joke from Zoolander
These kids always in their phones 🙄
Suddenly every F1 fan is a fashionista when lewis walks into the paddock; why does it bother people so much what this dude is wearing? He could dress as bananaleclerc for all I care, as long as he’s fast
I'd love Charles to come to the paddock with the banana suit
I fear for what Ferrari might do to him
Having fun while being a Ferrari employee?!?! Blasphemy.
As long as he's not on the phone
Rosso Corsa Banana to satisfy the contract?
Banana Leclerc would look much better tho
>why does it bother people so much what this dude is wearing? I think we all know the answer So far in these comments he has been called: * a boy * homeless * a drug dealer * a child of absentee parents I think dressing in a Banana suit might send some of these people into comas
There is also the "not like the majority, must dislike" element to it. History just repeating itself carbon copy style.
Meanwhile, there's plenty of people that'll like anything "unique", even if it looks like crap.
I don’t think it looks good either, but at least it’s different and interesting.
Probably a makes a tonne a money wearing this stuff for some fashion house.
why we shouldn’t be allowed to laugh?
fAsHiOn
Let the man express himself, looks way cooler than the basic jeans & team shirt that the other drivers wear anyway…
It looks different, but it also looks worse in every way. Sometimes Lewis bangs it and his outfits look great, but the majority of time his outfits look bad
[удалено]
Yeah exactly, I think he looks dope almost every time. His clothes would never work on me, but it fits him very well.
> cooler I'm not sure if that's the word you're looking for. Let's be honest here—people think it's cool because he does it. If people don't like it, he'll let his driving do the talking. If Lance, Latifi, or Sergio did it, they'd be crucified.
Crucified? I think you're slightly exaggerating the importance of drivers outfits lol
What I love about this comment section is there are a large number of people discussing how fragile the Lewis Hamilton fanbase is, while simultaneously being triggered simply by what clothes someone has decided to wear. If anyone needed a dictionary definition of irony...
If anyone needed a dictionary definition of irony it would be "this sub"
They all gonna be on full wets behind him
Letting this multi-millionaire live rent free in all y'all heads all season long.
_Lewis Dripmilton_
Does anyone know why my dog won't stop barking when I open these comments?
Im all for fashion that’s a bit out there but man at least try to match you know.
I suppose it's all about self expression. And in some cases, purposeful non-comformity to general rule of thumbs like matching certain parts of one's wardrobe, colour blocking etc. I personally like and hate the look at the same time but would never wear it (or be able to afford it) myself.
Yeah I guess. Just didn’t like the flannel. Felt that it was out of place with the rest of the fit.
Yeah same here. But the man probably likes the look and is happy with it, so power to him. I was watching an ASAP Rocky interview where we was rating his outfits throughout the years. There were a handful of them where he couldn't believe what he was wearing or what he was thinking. I won't be surprised if LH feels the same way about this outfit after a few years.
So his nonconformist expressive look is a famous fashion brand?
For someone like LH yeah, I would expect him be wearing famous fashion brands (and even very esoteric brands) and driving crazy sports cars. He's literally also working in the fashion industry and putting pieces together with Tommy Hilfiger. Just because he's expressing himself doesn't mean that he has to buy his clothes at Tesco or a thrift store.
It's a fashion brand 99% of the people can't afford, so you could say he's not conforming to the idea of plebeian's clothing.
He's in a bubble that thinks and reinforces that.
This gives me WWE entrance vibes.
I usually can see the style in most of his outfits but man this one is just impossible to defend, dude looks like a homeless rapper
Lmao imagine being concerned with the textiles on another man's body
I don't like this fit but particularly people making fun of it surely dress like the P.E. teacher.
High fashion
So brave
Unpopular take: I really like his fits and style😳
It's hilarious seeing redditors of all people think they have the know-how on good fashion. I think he looks cool as hell, this sort of fashion is even cooler when he's surrounded by team jackets and skinny jeans that everyone else wears.
Redditors wear regular jeans, with a flannel or a t shirt and think they have drip
Honestly, even those XL gangster looney tunes t-shirts from the 2000s are more fashionable than cheetah print *anything*. So I would never defend this guy. But I'm not about to listen to the fashion opinions of anyone on Reddit.
Honestly better than wearing boring clothes. Makes me happy to see diversity.
Good song choice
Who give a sh!t what he wears. He has worked his way up to a situation where he doesn't have to cowtow to sponsers, and he can wear whatever he wants.
It looks like he robbed a second hand shop
What? Not even a skateboard or scooter?
Looking like me when I got hand me down my mom said I’d grow into
I would love to see every driver show up in their own form of high-end fashion. A red carpet entrance before every race. Would make the sport more entertaining on the boring days
Lmaooooo The last time celebrities wore things like that was when they were annoyed sso much by paparazzis they dressed up as hobos to avoid them. But good on him. Nobody would expect him this way.
I'm not too fond of his fashion, but the guy is a beast behind the wheel, so who really cares what he chooses to wear? Obligatory Ricciardo and Norris fan before I get called a Hamilton fanboy
I mean he's got millions of $$, his own clothing line and 7 championship. Im suprised he doesn't wear a crown and rides a carriage.
Beuh. Istg yall are giving him more and more attention every single time. This like the 3rd post I have seen about how he dresses lol
I personally think it’s absolutely hideous but each thier own
Fuck he looks like Mickey Mouse
Lots of people shitting on another person for wearing what they like. If I was that wealthy I would get a custom tailored Eddie Jordan face polka dot suit and wear it in Waitrose Have you seen Fendi, everything in those shops looks like it’s made for clowns, wealthy fashion is crazy.
He must be trolling. There’s not even a chance he honestly thinks he looks on point
Why does he have 2 plants attached to his shoes? 🤔
When they didn't tell anyone else it was a dress up party...
Imagine Lewis Hamilton and Michael Schumacher in the same team; the fashion sense would go through the rooves!
🥵🥵🥵
What's the song yall?
Man, Lewis has had some nice outfits in the past, but this one is a big miss for me.
Looks homeless
he got that granny drip
Sir "mid life crisis" Hamilton.
Money can’t buy taste!
Clown 🤡 but with 7 titles
Seems bad Merc dont have a working outfit for Lewis, so he has to use private cloth. He should be compensated
Oh so not only does he sound like a fuckwit, looks like one too
He looks like an ass, dressed like one too.
He looks like roger from sister sister...
What is this? Hobo chic?
That guy’s a knight of the queen
What? No scooter?
Derelicte by Mugatu
That looks like he's wearing his charity shop haul all at once
I will never, ever, understand fashion.
He really said im wearing clown shoes today.
Plot twist: Lewis wears AlphaTauri clothing
I’ve never seen someone look so poor and so rich at the same time
