What are the odds of Lewis Hamilton having a pet cow that just so happens to be called Max!
Lewis Hamilton has revealed that he owns a cow called “Max,” but insisted it was the original owner who named the animal. Crowds in Melbourne ahead of this weekend’s Australian Grand Prix quickly started to laugh when Hamilton revealed the name of one of his pet cows, with many immediately wondering if it was named after Max Verstappen. Hamilton quickly shut down any suggestions that it was his choice of name, explaining that he adopted the cows after they had already been named. The two cows were adopted by the 41-year-old to fill the void left by his beloved dog, Roscoe, who sadly passed away last year. Roscoe was often spotted by Hamilton’s side in the F1 paddock and became an immediate fan favourite. Speaking at a fan event in Albert Park, Hamilton turned to see a picture of one of his cows, saying: “Oh yeah, this is my cow. His name is Max. I didn’t name him. I inherited him, by the way. His name is Max. I swear on my life, I swear on my life. I have like a… like a farm, and I inherited — I adopted him basically. And his name is Max. And I have another one called Hombre. They’re the softest. They’re like the new Roscoe for me. Check out the clip of Hamilton below!”
