Lewis Hamilton urges fans to support ally after heartbreaking loss
F1 legend Lewis Hamilton recently paid tribute on social media to his late dog Roscoe’s significant friend who played a crucial role in the dog’s life.
Roscoe, Hamilton’s beloved bulldog, passed away after battling pneumonia and subsequent heart issues, marking the end of his presence in the F1 paddock and at race weekends where he was a prominent figure.
Although Roscoe managed to attend only one race in the 2025 season, his memorable appearance was at the British Grand Prix, where he witnessed Hamilton in Ferrari red and had a chance encounter with Charles Leclerc’s dog, Leo.
During Roscoe’s declining health, Hamilton relied on devoted dog trainer Kirstin McMillan to care for him in his absence, expressing deep gratitude for her constant support and dedication.
Hamilton shared a heartfelt message on Instagram acknowledging McMillan’s crucial role in Roscoe’s life, as well as in caring for his other dog, Coco, who had passed away in 2020, appreciating her unwavering commitment and love for the pets.
Following Roscoe’s passing, Hamilton remembered his ‘beautiful soul’ and the joy they shared, emphasizing the dog’s legacy and the impact on his life, while preparing to return to the track at the Singapore Grand Prix after a period of mourning and reflection.
