Lewis Hamilton Gay: Lewis Hamilton is the most brilliant racer in the history of Formula One. With over seven world championship titles, the British racing driver is one of the most discussed personalities. His irreplaceable achievements are impossible to overlook, and he is unarguably the face of Formula One. So far, he is the first and only black driver to race in the series. While his career and achievements always create havoc in the media, Lewis makes equal buzz when it comes to his personal life. The 38-year-old is known for several high-profile relationships and hookups. In the meantime, Lewis Hamilton gay rumors continue to surface on the internet. The star is already thought to be an ally of the LGBTQ community, so the concerns are evident. He has also been spotted wearing a rainbow helmet during a few F1 races. So, is Lewis Hamilton Gay? Let’s see!

Lewis Hamilton Gay: Did The F1 Racer Reveal His Sexuality?

The 38-year-old Formula One star is not only a famous personality in the racing industry but is also known for breaking the norms. Lewis Hamilton is credited for being an appealing individual to a broader audience outside the sports world. Apart from having an unbiased stand for various environmental and social issues, the British racer is an open supporter of the queer community. The sportsperson never steps back to put forward his opinions concerning any aspect. Hence, his outspoken nature has eventually earned him the title of an activist who stands against racism in motorsport. Nevertheless, the seven-time world champion has been recorded several times advocating for LGBTQ people. But did Lewis open up about his sexuality?

It is common for Lewis Hamilton to deal with rumors and gossip based on his life. But when it comes to his sexuality, it is his own words that sparked such speculations. But, even after being an ally of the LGBTQ group, Lewis has never discussed his sexuality in public. In fact, the star has never expressed having an interest in same-sex relationships as well. In addition, none of the reports suggest him to have shared a fling with males in the past. Therefore, Lewis Hamilton Gay speculation can be referred to as rumors that hold no evidence for now. But the F1 champ has yet to clear the air.

Lewis Hamilton Gay: The World Champ Calls Florida’s LGBTQ Laws ‘Terrifying!’

Formula One’s most popular face never shied from taking a stand for the queer community. His fans are no strangers to witnessing him advocating for their respective rights. Moreover, the somewhat same situation happened ahead of the Miami Grand Prix. He lashed out at the anti-LGBTQ laws enacted by the rightmakers of Florida. The racer even gave a reference to the repressive Saudi Arabian laws where homosexuality is seen through the criminalized lens. Thus, the comparison of the treatment of LGBTQ people in Florida to that of Arabia received huge attention. It later sparked Lewis Hamilton Gay rumors. For those who are unknown, Saudi Arabia is a country where the queer group of people are oppressed!

Lewis Hamilton Slams Florida Republican

Meanwhile, in all the dramatic scenarios, Lewis Hamilton seemed to be upset with Florida Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis. The racer blasted out at him for ‘Don’t Say Gay’ rights and said that he doesn’t feel comfortable in the country. While speaking to a team of reporters, Hamilton explained that it is the sport that has led him to be in the country despite the existence of ‘terrifying’ laws. The 38-year-old has always been speaking about the questionable human rights records. So, while addressing Florida’s LGBTQ rights, the British racing driver said that it was not good. He expressed his support to the people belonging to the community and wished them to stand firm with their opinions.

On the other hand, Hamilton turned to Twitter and posted a picture of him wearing a rainbow helmet. He has previously raced in such a helmet in many countries, including Saudi Arabia and Qatar. Moreover, when asked about LGBT issues, Sir Lewis replied passionately. He said that he would still have his rainbow helmet on but it was much different from when he was in Saudi.

Faced Complications!

While Lewis regularly supports good causes, the seven-time world champion faced some resistance in Hungary. Although he is a vocal supporter of the LGBTQ people, the motorsport player has been into controversies, too. Hamilton, many a time, had his rainbow flag and raced in several Middle Eastern countries where homosexuality was a crime or illegal. But, things saw a little drawback when he jumped into certain troubles in Hungary in 2021.

Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban did not intend to take any learning from Lewis Hamilton‘s continuous support for the LGBTs. Instead, the former was to pass an anti-gay law. It not only received negative criticism, but the EU called it a ‘flagrant form of discrimination.’ Speaking to the media, Lewis called the law unacceptable and said that he would continue making changes. He described Formula One as a platform to spark uncomfortable conversations and change.

Apart from him, Sebastian Vettel also spoke about Hungary’s anti-LGBTQ+ law. As per the referendum, the country can impose a ban on the promotion of homosexuality. Furthermore, the depiction of gender change and other such acts to the 18 group is punishable. Vettel was already spotted wearing rainbow T-shirts in Hungary. In fact, he said that he would happily accept the punishment for putting on the colored T-shirt. Sebastian also expressed disappointment and shame that Hungary, being an EU member, voted for the law. It is only within the nation, but the law turned out to be controversial within the Formula One sport, as well.

FIA Adds Fuel To The Fire

Meanwhile, FIA made an unexpected move. The association updated its sporting code and issued a public notice. According to the official order, drivers will have to get prior permission for political and religious statements. On top of that, they must get approval from the FIA for personal opinions, too. Is it going in the right direction? As soon as the rulings surfaced, it received widespread condemnation. But, as of now, the Federation Internationale de l’Automobile has yet to step down from its judgment. Nonetheless, even after having an indirect clash with the Hungarian government, the Mercedes driver earned much support from the public. Also, Lewis has said that he won’t be following the FIA guidance. Hence, we can say that Lewis Hamilton gay rumors exist only because of him being a vocal supporter of the LGBTQ community.
