Lewis Hamilton encourages England football fans to wait before celebrating ‘It’s Coming Home’ until the team actually wins the World Cup. The renowned racing figure shared his thoughts with supporters of Thomas Tuchel’s squad on the tournament’s kickoff day in North America. Hamilton also disclosed his support for a second team this summer.
Born in Stevenage, Hamilton has represented Great Britain throughout his successful F1 career. Despite this, he was granted honorary Brazilian citizenship in 2022 and expressed his allegiance to Carlo Ancelotti’s Selecao alongside Harry Kane and the English team.
Expressing his admiration for Brazil, Hamilton stated, “Brazil has always been a favorite of mine. Watching Brazil play was a childhood joy for me growing up in England. The vibrant colors, rich culture, and exceptional players always stood out to me; they exuded a unique coolness.”
His comments sparked significant reactions in his home country. However, during a media briefing before the Barcelona-Catalunya Grand Prix, Hamilton reaffirmed his support for the South American powerhouse.
Regarding the World Cup, Hamilton mentioned, “I don’t have specific predictions as I don’t closely follow it. I will keep an eye on England’s progress. I hope they avoid premature celebrations with ‘It’s Coming Home’ until they secure victory. I am excited to watch Brazil in action, especially in their iconic yellow jerseys.”
Hamilton’s recent second-place finishes in the last two Grands Prix indicate a positive turn since his switch to Ferrari. While a first win for Scuderia seems promising, he acknowledges the challenge unless Mercedes encounters difficulties or his team significantly closes the performance gap with the Silver Arrows.
Hamilton emphasized the importance of winning through performance excellence rather than relying on others’ setbacks. He highlighted the team’s collective effort towards achieving success.
