Kardashian flies 6,700 miles to watch Hamilton secure Sprint podium at Singapore GP
Kim Kardashian flew her private Gulfstream G650ER from Honolulu to Singapore — a 12-hour, 41-minute journey — to watch Lewis Hamilton finish second in the wet-weather Sprint race at the Marina Bay Street Circuit on Saturday.
Kim Kardashian flew approximately 6,700 miles from Honolulu, Hawaii, to Singapore to watch Lewis Hamilton claim a second-place finish in the Sprint race at the Marina Bay Street Circuit on Saturday, 11 October. Her private Gulfstream G650ER, registered as N1980K, completed the direct flight in 12 hours and 41 minutes before touching down in the early hours of Saturday morning.
Flight-tracking data published by the Instagram account pulsesports.hq had sparked widespread speculation about whether Kardashian was actually on board or simply repositioning the aircraft. The live Formula 1 broadcast settled the debate: the Skims founder, 45, was clearly visible at the back of the Scuderia Ferrari garage, wearing a pink halter-neck maxi dress.
Her timing proved fortunate for Hamilton. After a 30-minute rain delay, the seven-time world champion launched from sixth on the grid and immediately climbed to third. When Mercedes driver George Russell crashed into the barriers on lap two, Hamilton moved up to second, finishing directly behind Red Bull’s Max Verstappen.
The Singapore appearance marks Kardashian’s second visit to an F1 paddock. Her first came at the Monaco Grand Prix in early June, where Hamilton also finished second — a coincidence that has not gone unnoticed among fans and commentators following the pair.
