WATCH: Lewis Hamilton gets an autograph from a iconic Illustrator before the 2025 Japanese GP

Seven-time Formula 1 world champion Lewis Hamilton is an artist. It is not only for racing but also in real-life arts and culture. Wherever he goes for racing, he celebrates the native art and culture, which has made him so popular over the years. The Ferrari F1 driver is now in Japan for the 2025 Japanese Grand Prix race. The Suzuka circuit is one of his favourite race tracks, where he won five times before.

Every year, when Lewis races in Japan, he wears a special helmet designed by one of the world’s greatest illustrators, Hajime Sorayama. In 2023, he wore a golden helmet that created a buzz on the internet. Now, Lewis Hamilton was again seen with the same Japanese illustrator, Sorayama. They both exchanged autographs, and this is the first time people see Hamilton get a signed T-shirt from another celebrity.

Lewis always appreciates other people’s work, and even in Formula 1, when his rivals perform exceptionally well, he goes and appreciates them. He also has a great knowledge and interest in art and music. So it is nothing new that Hamilton is getting an autograph from one of the iconic Japanese illustrators.

Fans are already excited to see the Ferrari driver's new helmet design for the Japanese Grand Prix, which we will see in two days. Let us hope the Suzuka circuit turns things around for the F1 legend, as the first two races ended badly for him and Ferrari. The Italian team is now in fifth position behind Williams Racing on the F1 championship points table. Lewis Hamilton is currently standing ninth behind Aston Martin's Lance Stroll. Ferrari also lost their number two spot to Mercedes.

Hamilton joined Ferrari on a mission to win his eighth world title. But things are not looking good at Ferarri. The car is having some issues, and for some reason, they are struggling to extract full power from the chassis. The Japanese Grand Prix race has always brought luck to Hamilton, and we hope he gets lucky again in the 2025 season.
