It is a post-race scene marked by hugs and congratulations at the Jeddah circuit in Saudi Arabia, and it can’t be otherwise for the sensational Oliver Bearman: Lewis Hamilton joins Scuderia Ferrari to celebrate with the talented, young driver and then hugs him in the parc fermé area.
Carlos Sainz doesn’t make it; the discomfort turns out to be appendicitis, and he must be replaced. A substitute is needed: Fred Vasseur calls Ollie Bearman at 2 PM on Saudi Friday, and the 18-year-old Englishman has a unique opportunity. After the good FP3 and the qualifying ending with P11 and some regrets, the race is a feat.
In Jeddah, the very young talent from the Ferrari Academy finishes in seventh place, becoming the youngest driver to score points with the Prancing Horse. Driver of the day for the spectators, Oliver Bearman can enjoy the outstanding performance, first in the embrace with Hamilton, then with his dad at the end of the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix.

At the end of the race, Ollie Bearman shows emotional eyes but great composure in his words on the team radio. Not holding back the happiness for the compatriot on his future car is Lewis Hamilton. It doesn’t matter that the 18-year-old finished the race ahead of him; Sir Lewis wants to celebrate with Oliver. After completing the race, Hamilton joins Ollie Bearman’s Ferrari. The #44 immediately directs applause towards the young Ferrari talent, then raises his fist, celebrating the great performance.
And that’s not all. When the two cars reach the parc fermé, Lewis Hamilton immediately goes to Oliver Bearman. As soon as he gets out of the car, the Mercedes driver hugs a tired but happy Ferrari driver at the end of the Saudi Arabian F1 Grand Prix.
Lewis Hamilton ve George Russell, Ollie Bearman'ı tebrik etti. 🖤❤️
