Lewis Hamilton Beats Lando Norris With Most Expensive Watch as Net Worth Revealed

Seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton has stood out with the priciest timepiece on the F1 grid. Hamilton sported a Richard Mille watch valued at $2.3 million (£1.7 million), according to Wristcheck .



This came as his first season with Ferrari drew to a close following a high-profile move to the Maranello-based team in January.



Despite the flashy accessory, Hamilton’s season results were underwhelming.



He failed to secure a single podium finish and ended sixth in the drivers’ championship.



Contrasting Styles on the Grid



While Hamilton’s watch commanded attention with its $2.3 million price tag, other drivers chose markedly different styles.



World champion Lando Norris celebrated his maiden title wearing a Richard Mille worth $470,000 (£350,000), a fraction of Hamilton’s watch cost.



Max Verstappen, who is known for aligning with Red Bull’s sponsors, opted for a Tag Heuer priced at just $6,600 (£5,000).



The contrast highlighted the different approaches drivers take to style and branding.



F1 Drivers’ Earnings in 2025



Even though Hamilton struggled on track, his earnings remained substantial.



According to Forbes, Verstappen topped the 2025 F1 earnings list with $76 million, including salary and bonuses, despite not yet factoring in a world championship bonus.



Hamilton came in second with $70.5 million, a figure reflecting his first year at Ferrari.



Newly-crowned champion Norris secured third place with $57.5 million.



The list of top-earning drivers for 2025 shows the wide disparity in salaries and bonuses across teams.
