Ahead of the 2026 Singapore Grand Prix, Kim Kardashian and former Formula 1 driver Martin Brundle have finally held an on-camera exchange, effectively putting their awkward Monaco encounter behind them. The pair met during Brundle’s grid walk on Sunday at the Marina Bay Street Circuit, where Kardashian had gathered to support her partner, Lewis Hamilton.
When Brundle approached her with a simple greeting, Kardashian broke the ice with humor, asking, “Did I not know the rules? Did we get off on the wrong foot?” Both shared a laugh as Brundle reassured her, “No, it’s absolutely fine. It’s great to have you here, Kim, at this grand prix. What are your thoughts on the exciting world of Formula 1?”
This interaction follows the Monaco Grand Prix earlier this year, when Brundle had attempted an interview as speculation about her relationship with the seven-time world champion intensified. At the time, Kardashian declined to comment while reveling in how Formula 1 had transformed the principality.
She had previously described the atmosphere as “amazing, and fun, and wild,” adding, “something I’ve never seen before.”

The Conversation Shifts to Hamilton
Brundle then steered the discussion toward the Ferrari driver, noting that ‘her man Lewis’ was in ‘great form’. Hamilton had already secured second place in Saturday’s Singapore sprint, finishing behind Max Verstappen’s Red Bull.
“He is [in great form],” Kardashian replied. “I’m just praying for the best tonight.” When Brundle asked whether Hamilton appeared confident, she confirmed, “Yes, very confident. And so am I. Just got to pray for the best.” The brief exchange concluded there.
Hamilton qualified third for Sunday’s race, behind teammate Charles Leclerc in second and Verstappen in pole position. Verstappen claimed victory at the circuit following a strong sprint campaign and hopes to replicate that success on Sunday.
The couple has now appeared publicly on multiple occasions, including during the Monaco race weekend. Following his second-place finish behind Mercedes’ Kimi Antonelli, Hamilton praised her presence, stating, “It’s amazing to have her come this weekend and have the support.”
