The body art includes a spaceship, half of a tiger’s face on Hamilton’s left index finger, planets, the words “Mum,” “love” and “live,” and the letter “A,” plus fine lines down his middle fingers and stars.

Though the F1 driver hasn’t posted photos of the new tattoos on his own Instagram page, he has used the platform to share career highs in recent months.
