After blowing a kiss to his lucky charm Kim Kardashian, Formula 1 veteran Lewis Hamilton followed up with a friendly admonishment for super-teenager Kimi Antonelli. "That's too many wins now, mate," the record champion whispered to the 19-year-old Monaco winner, who is racing towards becoming the youngest world champion. The fact that Antonelli, as he had done previously in Canada, once again prevented Hamilton from securing his first victory in a Ferrari, did nothing to dampen the Briton's good spirits.

This was likely due in part to the presence of reality TV icon Kardashian, whom Hamilton playfully sprayed with champagne from the royal box. The two have been seen together in public for some time now, fueling rumors of a relationship. "It's great to have good people around me who support me. She does that every day," Hamilton stated.

And professionally, the 41-year-old is also enjoying a third spring after his triumphs with McLaren and Mercedes. "I can't believe I'm second in the World Championship; I'm truly happy and grateful," said the seven-time world champion, even though he is already 66 points behind serial winner Antonelli. After a disastrous debut year with Scuderia Ferrari, he now feels "like I have to remind people who I am."
