Otmar Szafnauer, who ran Aston Martin and then Alpine, was discussing elite driver preparation on the High Performance Podcast on 30 July when he contrasted the two most decorated names on the grid. On Max Verstappen: "He is always the first in." On Lewis Hamilton: "Lewis comes in only when all the photographers are there, so he can wear the ridiculous clothing and take pictures." Host Jake Humphrey defended Hamilton on the spot, saying he likes the fashion and that Lewis dares to stand out. Szafnauer conceded: "He can pull it off, I can't." Main photo is Szafnauer, the speaker. The inset is the clothing he is talking about. πΈπ° via the High Performance Podcast, reported by GPblog #F1 #LewisHamilton #MaxVerstappen #Szafnauer
