RITA ORA was snapped at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix today as her rumoured boyfriend Lewis Hamilton was forced to surrender his Formula One world crown.
Brit Lewis lost his title to Nico Rosberg despite finishing ahead of his Mercedes teammate.
Pop star Rita, 26, looked tense as she sat in the Mercedes garage while events unfolded, her shoulders hunched and her hands crossed on her lap.
Over the summer, they spent the weekend in the studio together working on music.
A few weeks later, the pair were seen holidaying together on a secret getaway and they didn’t seem to be able to keep their hands off each other.
It comes as Rita defended Justin Bieber after he was caught on camera punching a teenage fan in Barcelona.
The Sorry singer lashed out at 18-year-old Kevin Ramirez after he put his arm through the star’s chaffeur-driven car to touch his face and neck outside the concert venue on Tuesday night.
X Factor star Rita leaped to the defence of the Canadian crooner, and admitted she can empathise with him – adding he must have been “uncomfortable and scared”.
Neither Rita nor Lewis has confirmed the pair are in a relationship, but they’ve been spotted together on numerous occasions.
The singer and the F1 champ, who used to date X Factor judge Nicole Scherzinger, have been photographed out for dinner and on nights out, and in July they were snapped frolicking together on a secret sunshine break.
