Hamilton starts his holidays at London Fashion Awards bash

Lewis Hamilton has fulfilled most of his post-season commitments and kicked off his holidays in style, attending the star-studded function at Royal Albert Hall ahead of The Fashion Awards 2017 and hob-knobbing with the glitterati of the fashion world as well as MMA strong man Conor McGregor.

The 2017 Formula 1 World Champion looked dandy in a red tartan outfit, accompanied by his date 62-year-old Donatella Versace to the fashion A-list event and after party in London.

Hamilton and McGregor hit it off from the moment they met on the red carpet and were BFFL on the night, the pair enjoying themselves while surrounded by a bevvy of beauties including supermodel Irina Shayk, pop star Rita Ora and fashion model Jourdan Dunn.

Hamilton returned to the UK after a Mercedes world championship celebration trip to Malaysia, which followed his final drive in a Formula 1 car this year during testing at Yas Marina Circuit, after the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.

It’s awards time of the year and Hamilton will have plenty new goodies for his mantlepiece including International Racing Award, the British Competition Driver Award, the Johnny Wakefield Trophy and the BRDC Gold Star award. He was also inducted into the FIA Hall of Fame.

Hamilton will receive the FIA Formula 1 World Championship for Drivers 2017 award at a function in Paris on Friday.
