LEWIS HAMILTON made a bold fashion statement upon arriving to the Formula One paddock ahead of the Azerbaijan Grand Prix.
The seven-time champion is hoping to end his win drought by scoring a victory at this weekend’s race.
But ahead of the race, Hamilton was spotted in a typically striking outfit.
Hamilton was pictured in an all-green jumpsuit which featured a ripped design resembling claw marks across it.
Fans remarked “Hamilton fashion week” had begun, rushing to social media to share their thoughts.
One fan on Twitter was taken aback by the fit, joking: “It looks like he was attacked by Shrek.” However, they admitted they still liked the look.

The look also impressed a host of other fans, with a second fan saying: “Cool as always 😎.”
“He’s the best,” declared a third.
While a fourth typed: “Now it’s race week.”

The Brit scored a P2 result as he finished behind Max Verstappen Down Under.
During the break, Hamilton overtook Verstappen’s longest career streak of days without a race win, which stands at 502.
And despite a strong showing at the last race, Hamilton and Mercedes team-mate George Russell are set to be left without car upgrades until the Emilia Romagna GP on May 21.
This means it could be a while before Hamilton adds to his record of 103 F1 race wins.
The upcoming weekend will also see the “Sprint Shootout” format given its inaugural outing.
