F1 stars arrive at Australian Grand Prix in style as Oscar Piastri rocks up in £400,000 outfit
FORMULA ONE stars arrived at Albert Park in style ahead of this weekend’s Australian Grand Prix.
Home town hero Oscar Piastri was swamped by fans when he arrived at the circuit on Thursday morning.
The 22-year-old was wearing the shirt of his favourite Australian Football League club, Richmond.
Some eagle-eyed fans also noticed that he was wearing a top-of-the range piece by boutique watchmaker Richard Mille, one of McLaren’s sponsors.
The Aussie was wearing the RM 67-02 Automatic Winding Extra Flat ‘Alexander Zverev’ model, worth around £400,000, while signing autographs for fans.
Seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton also arrived in style, wearing an orange Balmain jacket and blue jeans.
Stake driver Zhou Guanyu donned a Christian Dior varsity jacket worth around £4,000 with some red sunglasses.
And RB star Yuki Tsunoda was spotted wearing a pastel pink suit jacket with matching trousers and white trainers.
Teen superstar Ollie Bearman was also seen arriving at the circuit, but he was dressed in Ferrari’s team gear.
The 18-year-old made his F1 debut at the Saudi Arabian GP, but he will not feature this weekend following the return of Carlos Sainz.
