Kim Kardashian has finally addressed the situation with Martin Brundle following an uncomfortable F1 encounter.
Kim Kardashian and Martin Brundle have finally had a chance to chat ahead of the 2026 Singapore Grand Prix, with the reality star moving past her awkward moment in Monaco. The two met during the former driver's grid walk on Sunday at the Marina Bay Circuit, where Kardashian was present to cheer for her partner, Lewis Hamilton.
Brundle greeted her: "Hello, Kim. How are you?" he inquired.
"Did I not grasp the rules? Did we start off on the wrong foot?" Kardashian quipped, both sharing a laugh, to which Brundle replied: "No, it’s perfectly fine. It’s wonderful to have you here, Kim, at this grand prix. What do you think about the thrilling realm of Formula 1?"
During the Monaco Grand Prix earlier this year, Brundle had tried to interview Kardashian as news of her relationship with the seven-time world champion was gaining traction. She opted to remain silent while soaking in how Formula 1 had turned the principality into a racing venue.
"I think it’s incredible, fun, and exhilarating, something I’ve never witnessed before," she told Brundle enthusiastically. "It’s amazing."
Lewis Hamilton, Ferrari
The discussion shifts to Hamilton
Brundle redirected the conversation to the Ferrari driver, mentioning 'her man Lewis' being in 'excellent form'. He had already secured second place in Saturday's Singapore sprint race, finishing behind Max Verstappen's Red Bull.
"He is [in excellent form]," she replied. "I’m just hoping for the best tonight."
Brundle inquired if Hamilton appeared confident in her opinion.
"Yes, very confident. And so am I. Just got to hope for the best." And that wrapped up their short exchange.
The Ferrari driver qualified third for Sunday's Singapore Grand Prix, behind his teammate Charles Leclerc in second and Verstappen in first. Verstappen claimed his first victory at the circuit after a successful sprint performance and aims to replicate that success on Sunday.
Hamilton and Kardashian have been seen together publicly several times now, including at the Monaco race. “It’s fantastic to have her here this weekend and receive her support,” the driver remarked after finishing second behind Mercedes' Kimi Antonelli.
