Racing car driver Lewis Hamilton has won the F1 world championship seven times so it is only fair to assume that he'd have an impressive property portfolio under his belt, after all, where else would he keep all those trophies?
In fact, Lewis isn't just the proud owner of one property. In 2017, the F1 star spent a staggering $43 million on a New York penthouse in a project part-owned by NFL great Tom Brady and his model wife Gisele Bundchen and bought a second residence in the TriBeCa neighbourhood in 2019, for $40.7 million.

The Sun also reported that the star's former penthouse had five bedrooms, six bathrooms, two powder rooms, and a kitchen with private chefs.

The championship driver listed the unit in 2019 for $57 million, despite his neighbour and Jet.com founder Marc Lore paying just $43.8 million for a similar place, after having never lived there.

Photos detailing a full tour of the home before the sale were published by the MailOnline revealing a minimalist bathroom with an expansive walk-in shower and white marble vanity sink.

The space was built by the famous builder Samuel Johns in 1860 and opens out onto a 200ft garden with an impressive summer house.
As if that wasn't enough space, the home also boasts four reception rooms, with two huge bathrooms - plenty of space for post-victory celebrations as he enters into a new career phase with Ferrari.
His time spent unwinding takes place in Monaco where he is believed to own a property in the exclusive Fontvieille district. "A place I call home, Monte Carlo," he wrote on Instagram as he shared a sun-soaked surfing picture. "I am so blessed to live in such an incredible place. God is really shining down on me today."
