Lewis Hamilton and Justin Bieber’s Bond Steals Spotlight as F1 Star Hypes ‘SWAG’ Album originally appeared on Athlon Sports.
Lewis Hamilton just proved once again that his life off the track is as star-studded as it gets. The seven-time F1 champion took to Instagram Stories to hype up none other than pop icon Justin Bieber, congratulating him on his latest album ‘SWAG.’
“Proud of you brother, love this album. Go check it out,” Hamilton wrote, tagging Bieber and adding a boost of A-list endorsement that quickly set special media ablaze.
Fans couldn’t get enough of the crossover. “That’s a crossover I didn’t have on my 2025 bingo card,” one follower joked. Another simply said, “that’s what friends are for,” as others gushed over how the two global superstars have been tight for years.
It turns out, Hamilton and Bieber’s bond runs deep. They’ve been close friends for over a decade, spotted vacationing together, attending the same celebrity parties, and openly supporting each other’s careers.

While many casual fans were surprised by the F1 star’s post, long-time followers knew it was only a matter of time before Hamilton publicly backed his friend’s latest project.
Hamilton’s support isn’t just a small gesture either. With over 36 million Instagram followers, his recommendation can send waves across pop culture — a true power move from the Ferrari driver, whose influence stretches far beyond the racing circuit.
It’s also a reminder that despite dominating entirely different worlds, Hamilton and Bieber share a bond rooted in mutual respect and friendship. As one fan perfectly put it: “Love them both so much. Been friends for 10 years, people don’t know this!”
And with Bieber’s new album climbing the charts, it seems this high-speed endorsement is only fueling more buzz.
