Kim Kardashian was present in the Monaco Grand Prix paddock on Saturday, publicly supporting Lewis Hamilton as he vied for his first pole position with ferrari" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Ferrari.
The 41-year-old racing driver’s relationship with the reality television star has been a subject of speculation since the beginning of the year, with Kardashian making their romance ‘Instagram official’ just this week.
Her arrival in Monte Carlo, however, marked her first appearance in the Formula One paddock since the pair began their relationship.
Hamilton will undoubtedly be hoping to commemorate their joint F1 debut with a coveted maiden pole position for Ferrari.
The principality’s slow-speed, twisty circuit is widely considered to play to Ferrari’s strengths, and Hamilton demonstrated this potential by finishing 0.111 seconds ahead of his teammate Charles Leclerc during Friday’s practice session.
His recent form includes his best result for Ferrari at the previous Canadian Grand Prix, where he secured a runner-up finish behind Mercedes’ Kimi Antonelli.
Kimi Antonelli ended Ferrari’s run at the top of the leaderboard in Monaco as he finished fastest in the concluding practice session on Saturday.
The championship leader, who holds a 43-point lead over George Russell at the title summit, saw off Leclerc by 0.327 seconds with Hamilton just four thousandths adrift of his team-mate.
The 45-year-old American reality television personality and businesswoman, and the 41-year-old British racing star, were first linked in February after being spotted together at a hotel in the Cotswolds.
In a recent carousel of photos and videos on Instagram, simply captioned “lately”, Kardashian provided followers with a glimpse into their relationship.
A standout moment included a video clip of the pair cycling alongside a New York river on a sunny day.
Hamilton, holding the camera, filmed them both with a smile, while Kardashian initially beamed before becoming distracted.
The footage then captured her veering off the path, looking panicked, before abruptly cutting out.
A still photograph from the collection perfectly encapsulated the moment of impending disaster, showing Kardashian with her mouth wide open in surprise as she realised she was about to fall.
Qualifying for Sunday’s 78-lap race gets under way at 4pm local time (3pm BST).
