It’s an interesting look.
Formula One drivers can pretty much get away with anything because they live a life that most of us would only dream about.
Fast cars, glamorous locations, huge money, playboy lifestyle and slick suits are just some of the traits that you would associate with the world’s most gifted drivers and right now, Lewis Hamilton is on the top of that world.
Mercedes were nothing short of phenomenal this year as Hamilton defended his world title with ease, he was the winning driver in 10 of the 19 races. Unfortunately for those in attendance at the Sports Personality of the Year Awards, the reigning title holder isn’t present in Belfast this evening but he did send a pre-recorded message from Colorado to those in attendance.
Despite the kind words and sentiments, it seems that the people of Twitter were only focused on one detail.

Maybe if Lewis Hamilton wins another World Title, he can afford jeans without ripped knees 😄😄
