Lewis Hamilton is a “happier man” because Kim Kardashian is in his life.
The English racing driver gave the reality star a rare shout-out Thursday while on stage at Silverstone Circuit ahead of this weekend’s British Grand Prix, as seen in video footage obtained by the Daily Mail.
Hamilton, 41, stood next to fellow Formula One stars Oliver Bearman, Lando Norris, Arvid Lindblad and George Russell as a fan in the crowd asked, “You’ve been a happier man recently. Why’s that? Could that be a girlfriend?”
Hamilton replied, “Yeah, that’s a good one!” as broadcaster David Croft interjected to quip, “You know why he’s asking? He just needs to know if Kim needs two towels or not! That’s the thing.”
Notably, Kardashian, 45, went viral for accidentally stealing a towel left on the podium for Mercedes driver Kimi Antonelli after he finished last month’s Monaco Grand Prix in first place.
The beauty mogul — who was seen making out with her boyfriend during the motorsport event — used the towel to wipe her face following a champagne-spray celebration.
Responding to the question, Hamilton — who began racing for Ferrari in 2025 — first acknowledged his colleagues, gushing, “Once you spend a year with this team … Ferrari is the most iconic team of all time.”
He described last season as a “very tough” and “difficult period of time.”
However, he went on to praise the “amazing” and “welcoming” guys, noting that they are “finally” seeing their “hard work” get them “back to where [they] want to be.”
Not forgetting the “girlfriend” in question, Hamilton made sure to add, “And of course, of course — Kim.”
He gave a subtle yet public nod to the “Kardashians” star at the Monaco Grand Prix, too, blowing her a kiss from the second-place podium as she proudly filmed from her phone.
The couple has been dating since at least February.
