Lewis Hamilton finished second at Sunday's Monaco Grand Prix to move ahead of Ferrari team-mate George Russell in the Formula 1 drivers' standings, as the seven-time world champion credited 'amazing' support from Kim Kardashian in the paddock for helping fuel his strongest season in years.
After a curious sub-plot built up around the race weekend. Kardashian, attending her first grand prix since the pair began dating earlier this year, was a visible presence in the Ferrari garage on both Saturday and Sunday. Online, the old trope of a 'Kardashian curse' was dusted off and recycled with familiar glee. On track, Hamilton quietly put in one of his sharpest drives since joining Ferrari, securing P2 behind a dominant Kimi Antonelli and climbing to his highest championship position since 2021.
