RUSSELL TEASES HAMILTON: VIRAL VIDEO CAPTURES GEORGE RUSSELL ASKING LEWIS ABOUT KIM KARDASHIAN RUMORS
Lewis Hamilton is at Ferrari! Discover why George Russell teased him about Kim Kardashian and how the new 2026 car is performing.
Social media blew up fast after George Russell threw a cheeky question at Lewis Hamilton during F1 testing in Bahrain, asking him about his love life. All this comes as rumours swirl about Hamilton dating Kim Kardashian.
Back in early February, The Sun claimed Hamilton and Kardashian spent a “romantic weekend getaway” together in Oxfordshire. According to them, the two shared a room in the main house and had the spa and pool to themselves at night.
Not long after, people spotted Kardashian at the Super Bowl with Hamilton, who now drives for Ferrari. Neither of them has said a word about whether they’re actually dating.
Sky Sports F1’s Ted Kravitz mentioned that, earlier this month, a journalist in Bahrain straight-up asked Hamilton if the rumours were true. Hamilton, 41, didn’t give much away: “It’s my private life; I’m not talking about that.”
Fast forward to the first day of the final 2026 test in Bahrain. All 22 F1 drivers lined up for the usual preseason group photo, and Russell Hamilton’s former teammate at Mercedes couldn’t resist teasing him. While everyone was getting ready, Russell turned to Hamilton and grinned, “All loved up or... what’s the latest?” Hamilton just smiled, and Russell burst out laughing, giving Hamilton a friendly pat on the shoulder.
Isack Hadjar and Alex Albon stood nearby, but they smartly kept out of it.
On the track, Hamilton had a solid opening day, finishing seventh in testing. Ferrari’s day went smoothly too, except for a brief spell when Hamilton stayed in the pits so his team could tinker with the car. Between Hamilton and Charles Leclerc, Ferrari racked up 114 laps, the sixth most among all the teams.
Hamilton faced the media on the first morning in Bahrain and seemed pretty upbeat about Ferrari’s new 2026 car. “With the car, I think we’ve started quite well so far,” he told Sky Sports. “It’s an exciting time with the new generation of cars, because it’s all brand new, and we’re all trying to figure it out on the go.
“Last year, we were locked in a car that, ultimately, I inherited.
“This is a car that I’ve been able to be a part of developing on the simulator, and so a bit of my DNA is within. I’m more connected to this one, for sure.”
MELBOURNE WARNING: MAX SAYS FANS WILL SEE "UNNATURAL" LIFT-AND-COAST DURING THE AUSTRALIAN OPENER
Max Verstappen calls 2026 F1 rules "anti-racing." Discover why he thinks the new engines feel like Formula E on steroids.
Max Verstappen isn’t letting up on his criticism of the new 2026 Formula 1 rules. He says F1 needs to “stay away” from turning into Formula E.
Last week in Bahrain, Verstappen really stirred things up during pre-season testing. He called the new rules “anti-racing” and basically said the series is turning into “Formula E on steroids".
Here’s what’s going on: the next generation of F1 engines will rely way more on electrical power, almost a 50-50 split with the combustion engine. So, battery management is about to become a huge part of racing, not just a side thing.
What does that actually mean? Well, drivers might have to downshift even on the straights just to save energy. That’s a move straight out of Formula E, where drivers sometimes drop back on purpose to save battery and then attack late in the race.
Verstappen wants none of it. When someone asked him if F1 might start attracting more Formula E drivers because of all this battery management or even become a feeder series for the all-electric championship, he didn’t hold back. “Well, let’s hope not,” he said.
He clarified he’s not against the drivers. “There are a lot of good drivers in Formula E who could do well here,” Verstappen said. “But I don’t want F1 to get close to Formula E.”
He was pretty blunt about what he wants: “I want us to actually stay away from that and be Formula 1. So don’t add more battery. Actually, get rid of that and focus on a proper engine. Let Formula E be Formula E, because that’s their thing.”
He’s seen the new Gen4 Formula E car, and he thinks it looks cool. “But let them be Formula E, and we should stick to Formula 1. Let’s not mix them up.”
Verstappen isn’t the only one talking about the 2026 rules. They’ve really split opinions. Lando Norris, last year’s world champion, said the new cars are “a lot of fun".
When someone asked Verstappen if he got any pushback from the authorities for speaking out, he just shrugged it off. “I’m just sharing my opinion,” he said. “We have free speech. That’s how I feel. Not everyone has to agree, and honestly, it doesn’t really matter what other people say. I got a question, and I answered it.
“I think I’m allowed to do that. So it’s not about pushback or anything.”
THE 2026 BLUEPRINT: HOW LEWIS HAMILTON IS SECRETLY SHAPING FERRARI’S NEXT-GEN POWER UNIT
Lewis Hamilton is betting on 2026: Discover why Jenson Button believes new F1 rules will save Hamilton’s struggling Ferrari career.
Jenson Button thinks the new Formula 1 rules are going to be a turning point for Lewis Hamilton’s future in the sport. Hamilton’s first year with Ferrari? Pretty rough. He didn’t even get on the podium once, a first for him, and finished sixth in the drivers’ standings, while Ferrari landed fourth in the Constructors’ Championship. Now, Hamilton’s 41 and not shy about wanting things to get better this season. Button, though, is still hopeful. He figures Hamilton’s early work with Ferrari’s 2026 car could really pay off.
Button knows what he’s talking about; he spent three years as Hamilton’s teammate at McLaren. Watching Hamilton struggle last season was hard for him. “It was tough, I have to say, watching Lewis in 2025,” Button told Sky Sports News before the new season kicks off in Australia on March 8. “I know how good he is. You could see how much it hurt him. You almost forget everything he’s accomplished because you just see the pain in his face. But honestly, with these new regulations, I think we’ll see Lewis back at his best.”
Button thinks Hamilton’s going to have a real say in how Ferrari builds the new car, and that’ll make a big difference. “He’ll help shape the car in a way that works for him,” Button said. “I hope we see that. Everyone wants to see Ferrari and Lewis fighting at the front again.”
The rule changes this time around are pretty major. The biggest stuff? Overhauls to the power unit and new hybrid engines. Aerodynamics are getting a shake-up, too, and F1’s dropping the drag reduction system completely. Teams also have to deal with new financial rules after the cap on operational costs went up. Ferrari’s hoping all this helps them get back in the title fight. Button, who just retired last year, says with all these changes, “anything is possible” as the sport heads into a new era.
Last season, Hamilton’s teammate Charles Leclerc outshone him, grabbing seven podiums even though they drove the same car. Leclerc’s been at Ferrari longer, so that probably helped, but Hamilton’s betting that another year at Maranello will give him what he needs by 2026.
Still, Button doesn’t sugarcoat it. If things don’t turn around for Hamilton this year, it might never work out, which could mean the end of the road for him in F1. “Switching teams and going up against someone who’s been there for years is always tough,” Button said. “But now Lewis has had time to settle in, build relationships, and shape the car’s direction. This year’s huge for him. If it doesn’t click, I don’t know if it ever will. This is his chance to turn things around.”
