Formula One champion Lewis Hamilton got his gears horribly wrong at Wimbledon.
The Brit was barred from the Royal Box during the Wimbledon men's final for not being dressed appropriately.
Hamilton's spokesman described it as an "unfortunate misunderstanding regarding the dress code at Wimbledon."
An "honoured" Hamilton was certainly looking forward to the big day, having posted a photo his Royal Box invitation on social media and even informed his followers when he was on his way to the match.
Men are required to wear a jacket, tie and shoes in the posh box. A spokesman for the All England Lawn Tennis Club confirmed Hamilton missed the match between Novak Djokovic and Roger Federer.
"If he came without a jacket, tie or shoes he would have had two choices - not staying or going to get some extra stuff."

Hamilton bounced back, posting a picture of himself dressed in a colourful shirt and trousers with the caption "Wimbledon".
Those who did make it into the box included actors Benedict Cumberbatch, Bradley Cooper and Hugh Grant and tennis greats Bjorn Borg, Chris Evert and Rod Laver.
Even at world No 58, Raducanu remains one of the most marketable players in the sport.
