    Ahead of Sunday’s highly anticipated F1 Grand Prix in Monte Carlo, Lewis appeared calm and collected.

    Despite his slim odds before the race, he managed to calm his nerves behind his stylish ensemble.

    Lewis’ new-look Mercedes saw him qualify in a dismal eighth place, while his teammate George Russell finished sixth.

    The driver was 0.758 seconds in front and three tenths behind Russell.

    It comes after Lewis told how he will focus on ‘film and fashion’ when he retires from racing.

    The Formula 1 star is already thinking about his future away from the track and has revealed that he has sought advice from some of his famous friends who have already left their sport.

    He told GQ’s annual creativity problem: ‘I’ve spoken to so many fantastic athletes, from Boris Becker to Serena Williams, and even Michael Jordan.

    Talking to greats I’ve met along the way, who are retired – or some who are still in competition – and the fear of what’s next, the lack of preparation for the future.

    “A lot of them said, ‘I quit too early.’ Or, “Stayed too long.” “When it ended, I had nothing planned.” “My whole world collapsed because my whole life was dedicated to that sport.”

    ‘Some said, “I didn’t plan it and it was a bit of a mess because I was really lost afterwards. There was such a hole. Such an emptiness. And I had no idea how to do that.” And I was in such a hurry to fill it at first that you’re filling it with the wrong thing…’

    “But it just made me think, ‘Okay, if I quit, how do I prevent that?’ And so I started seriously finding other things that I was passionate about.”
