Hamilton shows out in LA wearing vintage jacket for NFL team he OWNS
Lewis Hamilton has posted videos from his post-season trip to the United States, going to watch the Denver Broncos in Los Angeles – the NFL team he became a part-owner of in 2022.
Wearing a throwback Broncos jacket, the Brit settled in for a dominant 24-7 Denver win over the home team, keeping the Colorado team in the NFL playoff picture.
The seven-time Formula One World Champion shared a three-part video on Instagram. The first part showed him watching the game, and then there was a video of him walking around SoFi Stadium from behind before there was a clip of a significant fourth-down stop by the Chargers.

Hamilton was part of the Walton-Penner group which bought the three-time Super Bowl champion team in 2022, headed by Walmart heir Rob Walton; his daughter, Carrie Walton Penner; and her husband, Greg Penner.
“Honestly, it’s such an honour and such an amazing opportunity, Hamilton said on the Jimmy Kimmel show at the time. “I remember when I was like nine years old, I used to live on an American air base for a short period of time in the UK, and that was the first time I became aware of it [NFL], and I used to play Madden.
“I’ve attended numerous Super Bowls. I attended the first game in the UK, but I have racing in Mexico this weekend, so I will be missing it.
“I jumped at the chance to be involved in Melody Hobson’s (a fellow investor) amazing opportunity when she called me. Black ownership in the NFL is genuinely lacking, and I’m always advocating for diversity. I’m honored to be a part of the extensive work that still needs to be done.”
