American tennis great Serena Williams has previously attended a few F1 races to support Lewis Hamilton. The 23-time Grand Slam champion believes that he’s the numero uno of motorsports – “He is for me the greatest driver that our generation has seen.”
The two of them share an interpersonal connection. Her achievements, on and off the court, have always inspired Hamilton. On the other hand, Serena’s been motivated by his mental and physical preparation.
“Lewis and I are super close. I’ve known him for years. I love that guy. He’s a really good friend of mine. The guy is such a champion, has such a champion’s mindset. I look at what he does training, physically, his job, it’s really no words for it, to be honest,” Williams had said last year.
It is not the first time she’s acknowledged Hamilton’s statistical milestones either. She previously backed him to break the Grand prix win record of Michael Schumacher. Also, the Briton wears his heart on his sleeve; something that resonates with Serena.
Formula One champion said that he is only proud of Serena, who fought on the day like a champion she always is.
Serena’s reaction certainly touched seven-time Formula One champion and dear friend Lewis Hamilton, who wrote on his Instagram that he is only proud of Serena, who fought on the day like a champion she always is.
