When it comes to preparing for sensible attire for the Grand Prix, Tamara Ecclestone should know best.
After all, her father is the CEO of Formula One. So when it came to kitting out one-month-old baby daughter Sophia in sensible ear protection it was only natural she did it as glamorously as possible.
Protectively covering her ears in baby pink crystal encrusted noise protectors, the 29-year-old heiress was joined at the Monaco Grand Prix on Sunday with husband Jay Rutland by her side for their daughter's first Grand Prix.
