Both Brits beamed with smiles while topless in the baths, with Russell also holding a Monster Energy water bottle for the soak.
However, eagle-eyed fans spotted a peculiar detail on Russell‘s tub which was missing from Hamilton‘s… inscribed initials.
The added detail left fans in hysterics, with one reacting: “George Russell is the type of guy to label his ice bath.”
A second said: “George really had to label his tub to tell which one is his .”
“I’m so not surprised that George has labelled his ice bucket, he definitely labelled all his stationary at school,” remarked a third.
Another fan joked: “They look like 2 kids playing in the tub .”
A fifth commented: “Lewis Hamilton thirst traps are back .”
While a sixth typed: “With the heat in Singapore, they are going to need more ice!”
