Lewis Hamilton returns to Monaco after the Hungarian GP
The knight was seen at the prestigious Monaco harbor surrounded by security guards. Still, Hamilton acknowledged fans waiting to catch a glimpse of him by waving to them.
The 7-time world champion was waiting for him with his Zonda 760 LH. Fans even clicked on pictures of his supercar as it is rarely seen. Just minutes later, Lewis was seen driving away from the famous Monaco F1 tunnel.
The driver with the number 44 is known for his speed behind the wheel. However, as he was driving the streets of Monte Carlo, Lewis decided to cruise rather than push the limits of his car.
How was Lewis Hamilton’s weekend in Budapest?
Hamilton was hoping for another victory for the Silver Arrows as he prepared for the Hungarian Grand Prix. Starting from pole position for lights gave the Briton some hope. However, as they approached in turn, there was slaughter.
Four drivers were beaten, including his team-mate Valtteri Bottas. When the race was about to restart, all drivers except Hamilton pitted to change their intermediate tires. That decision, however, proved disastrous as the track dried out, Hamilton struggled to keep up and returned to the garage a lap later to change his tires.
