Fans of Lewis Hamilton and Beyoncé were thrilled by their interaction at the Las Vegas Grand Prix this weekend.
Both are well-known figures in their fields, making their meeting a significant event for many.
Jay-Z and Beyoncé made an appearance at the F1 Las Vegas Grand Prix on Saturday (November 22). Beyoncé, well-known for hits like ‘Single Ladies,’ captivated attention during her time on the grid.
The couple came to support their friend Hamilton, who finished in eighth place for Ferrari.
However, it was a pre-race moment between Hamilton and Beyoncé that caught everyone’s attention.
Beyoncé donned a white Louis Vuitton jumpsuit and joined Hamilton for a ride around the track on a Pirelli Hot Lap.
After the lap, the two shared a brief exchange that fans are eager to understand.
This interaction was captured on film and shared on the official F1 Twitter page, which celebrated them as ‘icons’.
A lip reader, speaking to the Express, claims to have deciphered their conversation.
As Beyoncé exits the car and embraces Hamilton, she reportedly comments: “Unbelievable, thank you, thank you.”
An off-screen voice seems to catch her attention, prompting Beyoncé to tap her chest and say: “I think I’m gonna be sick.”
The video also shows Beyoncé talking to Jay Z, appearing to check on his well-being.
The lip reader indicates Jay Z responded: “Not all the way,” prompting Beyoncé to gently touch his chest.
On social media, users jested about how Hamilton managed to stay focused given Beyoncé’s presence.
One user remarked: “Surprised Lewis didn’t crash due to… a distraction…”
Another commented: “Somebody better be dropping the video of this hot lap please for teamLH and Beyhive.”
A third noted: “When Beyoncé steps into Lewis Hamilton car 44, just know a moment is happening. Every detail intentional. Every step iconic.”
Despite this, Beyoncé received some criticism online for her outfit choice and the assumption that she lacks interest in racing.
Supporters were quick to highlight her and Jay-Z’s history of friendship with Hamilton and their previous attendance at race events.
