Lewis Hamilton and her jewelry, episode 8792. Are we witnessing the epilogue of the longest and most laughable non-sporting subject of the year 2022? The British driver was indeed allowed to start the Bahrain Grand Prix without having to remove his nose piercings. For safety reasons, the FIA has banned the wearing of jewelry in races since 2005. Legislation which had never really been harshly enforced, until the new race director Niels Wittich took up the problem. last year.
A risk of disfigurement for Lewis Hamilton
The seven-time world champion even acted provocatively a few months ago by showing up adorned with all kinds of jewelry during a press conference in Miami. In Florida, he received an exemption which was then extended until the end of the season. It would seem that the Briton finally won his case and that his rebellion was not in vain. Eager not to return to a year of standoff with the Briton, the race management ended up communicating on the subject from the start of the season to prevent the subject from vampirizing the debates.
“The stewards consulted the FIA medical delegate, who saw the medical report, examined the driver and agreed with the opinion contained therein. We have decided not to take further action as frequent attempts to remove the device raise concerns about possible disfigurement.", indicates the FIA press release. This is Lewis Hamilton's first victory this season! And it seems that the Stevenage native has decided to celebrate it with a second piercing!
