A surprise Olympic appearance has led to images from an F1 world champion’s party to resurface.
The 2024 Paris Olympics have welcomed seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton, who attended the bronze medal match featuring his friend, Miles Chamley-Watson.
Hamilton was seen supporting his friend alongside 3x Winter Olympic gold medallist Shaun White, and rap legend Snoop Dogg.
Whilst Chamley-Watson failed to acquire a medal, Hamilton took to social media to congratulate his friend and revealed his ‘pride’ at his friend’s accomplishments.

F1 fans make surprise Olympic connection
F1 fans have been seeing the sport wherever they look during the summer break, as they made various connections with the Olympic Games.
Some fans were quick to notice Oscar Piastri’s doppelganger, by sharing a picture of Dutch gymnast, Frank Rijken.
The McLaren star noticed the comparisons on X, and replied that he was ‘not competing’ at the Olympics on social media.
Similarly, during the Men’s Park Skateboarding semi-final the Spanish athlete, Danny Leon, was compared to Daniel Ricciardo.
Even athletes names are unsafe from an F1 connection with Bahamian sprinter Alonzo Russell reminding fans of a champion’s party.
The infamous image of Alonso smoking a cigar as he danced, was placed next to the picture of the athlete Alonzo Russell with the caption ‘The party / 9 months after’.
