Lewis Hamilton and Usain Bolt's weekend was better than yours

Austin, Texas - Multiple Olympic champion Usain Bolt was one of the many stars at this weekend's United States Grand Prix at the Circuit of the Americas. 

The Jamaican was invited by sportswear brand Puma and seemed to enjoy the limelight even posing with former US President Bill Clinton.

The race was on by Lewis Hamilton, who increased his lead in the drivers title by 66 points over Sebastian Vettel who finished second. Ferrari's Kimi Raikkonen was handed third place after Max Verstappen pipped him at the line, only for the stewards to deem the Dutch racer gained an unfair advantage. 

Bolt and Hamilton continued their 'bromance' as Hamilton revelled in his podium interview with multiple Olympic sprint champion Usain Bolt, who he had taken as a passenger for a few laps of the Circuit of the Americas before the race AFP reported

"I'm still feeling nervous," said the Jamaican runner. "That was a fantastic experience."
