We’d expect nothing less from our than to make an entrance, whatever the occasion.

But put on a Grand Prix at his home turf of Silverstone, add some dedicated fans and, and we’ve got ourselves a mighty sight.

The rocked up ahead of this weekend’s much-anticipated Grand Prix looking dapper as anything in a chequered blue and red flared suit.

The outfit is giving flag meets luxury fashion, and is there anything more Lewis than just that?

Outside the F1 grid, the star also has his own fashion brand called +44, so this figures.

Aside from the drivers, the F1 grid is always a starry affair, and while celebrities come out in full force to Austin and the glitzy yacht-strewn Monaco, Silverstone – the UK’s host track based in Northamptonshire – is sure to attract some megastars too.

The race will kick off at 3pm on Sunday, and will be shown on Channel 4 and Sky Sports.

For the best pre-race build up action, the coverage will start at 2.15pm.

We only say this because former racing driver turned Sky Sports presenter Martin Brundle will be walking up and down the paddock trying to catch celebrities unawares to chat to.

With many only rocking up for the glamour of the occasion, and not knowing who he is – a legend of the sport – the whole Silverstone build up can turn out to be a pretty hilarious one.

Just last year in Austin Meghan Thee Stallion’s bodyguard famously shut Martin down, before another one of her team said something along the line’s of, ‘You can’t do that,’ when he tried to have a chat with her.

Hilariously, Martin responded: ‘I can do that because I just did.’

We can’t wait to see which famous faces turn up to watch the zoom, zoom, and whether any of them will chat in the grid ahead of the race.

We’re also glad to see Lewis is making the most of his fashion prowess before he has to shimmy into his F1 suit and slip on his helmet.
