When asked about the FIA’s stance yesterday, Hamilton said: “It’s worrying – we’ve got bigger fish to fry. We’ve really got to start focusing on more important areas. I will be racing this weekend. I’m working with the FIA. The matter is not massively important, I’ll work with Mohammed and his team to take the next steps forward.”
The Mercedes star, 37, had initially been given a clinical exclusion for two races – Miami and Barcelona – where he was permitted to wear piercings. In any case, last month the FIA requested Hamilton eliminate all things to consent to new security guidelines by June 30.

Be that as it may, the nose stud stayed an issue as Hamilton guaranteed it couldn’t be taken out without any problem. He said last month: “This whole safety thing, man. When they [the FIA] told me about the jewellery, they said safety is everything. And I said, ‘Well, what’s happened over the last 16 years? I’ve had jewellery for the last 16 years, so was safety not an issue back then?”
Finding out if he was happy with the goal and afterwards taking his nose stud out, he proceeded: “No. No. I got an exemption here, I’ll get an exemption for the rest of the year. Wedding rings are allowed. I’ll wear four watches next time [in Monaco].”
FIA rules on jewellery states: “The wearing of jewellery during this competition can hinder both medical interventions as well as subsequent diagnosis and treatment should it be required following an accident.
“The presence of jewellery can slow, due to the risk of “snagging”, the emergency removal of driver safety equipment such as helmet, balaclava and overalls. The wearing of jewellery in the form of body piercing or metal neck chains is prohibited during the competition and may therefore be checked before the start.”
