Hamilton in the spotlight because of special shoes

Lewis Hamilton has once again grabbed the limelight ahead of the French Grand Prix. The Briton came into the paddock on Thursday afternoon wearing remarkable shoes, but seems very happy with his choice of clothes. Tastes can differ, of course.

Look who just entered the paddock. Loving the rubber boots! It‘s 28°C and sunny here at Le Castellet. #AMuS #F1 #GPFrance pic.twitter.com/4xBJXOXH5U

Hulkenberg smells barbecue in his car at Paul Ricard

Next weekend it's time for the French Grand Prix again and so Formula 1 looks back at a great moment from the past. Back in 2019, Hulkenberg was still active in Formula 1 and he had a feeling in his car that there was something on the barbecue. That's usually not such a good sign in your car.
