Lewis Hamilton has jetted in to Egypt to show his support for Gaza humanitarian and aid workers following the Brazilian Grand Prix.

After a highly dramatic weekend in Mexico City the week prior, Sao Paulo proved just as frustrating for Hamilton, who finished the Brazilian Grand Prix in P9, for very different reasons.

The Ferrari star was hit with a colossal 75-place grid penalty ahead of lights out, and despite making a fast start and cutting through half of the F1 grid, he would later go backwards before getting his timing from dry tyres to intermediates wrong later in the race.

Hamilton revealed that he once again overruled Ferrari's call for him to box at Interlagos, but said that he did so due to a lack of communication from his team regarding the conditions.

Lewis Hamilton shows support for Gaza

In light of the above, a few days away from the track at the end of F1's triple-header might be welcomed, and there is nothing more sobering than continuing to acknowledge the humanitarian crisis in Palestine.

Hamilton has long shown his support for Palestine amid the ongoing humanitarian crisis in the region. The F1 star has previously called for Israeli attacks on the region to 'stop' and has also put his money where his mouth is by donating to Palestinian humanitarian organisations.

Most recently, he said 'free Palestine' during an FIA press conference ahead of the United States Grand Prix, expressing support for other countries such as Congo, Sudan and Syria, too.

Now, per complexmena, Hamilton is in Egypt's North Sinai ahead of a planned visit to Rafah to see firsthand the humanitarian efforts supporting the region.

They report that the Ferrari star is set to 'visit aid warehouses and logistics facilities handling supplies destined for Gaza'.
