Lewis Hamilton Thanks for the Support After the Loss of His Dog Roscoe

Formula 1 driver Lewis Hamilton expressed his gratitude for the overwhelming support received following the death of his dog, Roscoe. The announcement of Roscoe’s death, who was 13 years old, was made earlier this week, generating a wave of condolence messages from fans and rivals. Hamilton, visibly emotional, commented on the amount of messages received before the Singapore Grand Prix. “It was overwhelming to see how many people were touched by Roscoe around the world. It was truly moving to receive so much affection,” he stated. Roscoe, adopted by Hamilton in 2013, became a beloved figure on Formula 1 social media. His departure has generated a great impact on the motorsport community.

I haven’t been able to respond to everyone, but it was the most important thing in my life, so it was a very difficult experience. I know that many people in the world have gone through this and know what it’s like to have a pet that gives you incredible love, and it’s an incredible experience.

The Ferrari driver also mentioned that he was eager to compete again. “I’m looking forward to getting back in the car and doing what I love here,” he said. Regarding his expectations for the Singapore Grand Prix, Hamilton acknowledged that it will be a challenge. “It’s hard to say because it will be the first time I drive a Ferrari in Singapore. But the car felt very good at the beginning of the last grand prix and we couldn’t maintain it throughout the weekend. But, as I said, we’ve learned why that was, and I think we’ll have a better approach this weekend. And, obviously, last week I haven’t had as much time as I’d like with the team, but I know they’ve been working very hard at the factory.” Hamilton also added: “I feel optimistic about it. I have no idea how fast the others are going to be. Obviously, they are going to be fast, the Red Bulls very fast, as are the McLarens and the Mercedes. So we have a lot of work to do.”
