Martin Brundle successfully interviewed Kim Kardashian on the Formula 1 grid at the Singapore Grand Prix, four months after an initial attempt at the Monaco Grand Prix earlier this season. The interaction occurred ahead of the 62-lap race at the Marina Bay Street Circuit on Sunday, October 11, 2026.
Kardashian, 45, initiated the conversation by asking Brundle, ‘Did I not know the rules? Did we get off on the wrong foot?’ She then expressed her positive view of Formula 1, describing it as ‘amazing and fun and wild, and something I’ve never seen before.’
The American reality television personality was present at the Singapore event to support Lewis Hamilton, with whom she has been in a public relationship since early 2026. When questioned about Hamilton’s form, Kardashian stated, ‘He is [in great form]. I’m just praying for the best tonight. [Lewis is] very confident, and so am I. Just got to pray for the best.’
Hamilton, driving for Ferrari, demonstrated strong performance during the Singapore Grand Prix weekend. He secured a second-place finish in the sprint race on Saturday, October 10, 2026, behind Max Verstappen and ahead of teammate Charles Leclerc.
During the sprint, Hamilton executed a notable start in wet conditions, advancing from sixth to third position. This became second place following an incident involving George Russell. For the main Grand Prix on Sunday, Hamilton started from third on the grid.
The earlier encounter at the Monaco Grand Prix in June 2026 saw Kardashian decline Brundle’s interview request. Brundle, from Sky F1, approached her on the grid, but she turned away to speak with a member of her entourage.
Brundle was subsequently heard remarking to someone off-camera, ‘You don’t need to push me, mate. Yeah, normally people will have a quick chat with us.’ A second attempt to engage Kardashian was also met with a dismissive gesture from her security detail.
Kardashian and Hamilton’s relationship has been a topic of public interest throughout the 2026 season, with both individuals maintaining a degree of privacy regarding its details.
