Lewis Hamilton has well-established his name in F1 as the most successful driver in the sport’s history. Yet, it’s no secret that the driver is more than that. Loving the life of glamour, Hamilton has dipped his toes in multiple pools including fashion, food, and his favourite- music.

The multi-faceted 38-year-old has an inclination to music and has even featured on a song under his alter-ego XNDA. And after years of teasing a release of his own music, he might just fulfil it.

After an enlightening pilgrimage to South Africa during the 2022 summer break, Lewis Hamilton may have returned more inspired than ever. The trip was a definite turn point for the driver, who extensively shared the insightful experience with his fans. What’s more, he took his fans on a journey in his own special way- a curated playlist of the sounds of South Africa.

While gifting his fans this playlist, Hamilton also mentions the effect these tracks had on him. “The energy and love for music here really resonates with me…” Two months after this experience, Lewis Hamilton was spotted making the most of all the newfound inspiration.

Hamilton might have to hit pause on the music

As much as this track list would be hot on the market, Hamilton may have other things in store for him.

The tumultuous 2022 season has far from deterred Hamilton from his path to the record-breaking 8th championship. After healing the wounds of his past, the frontrunner is ready to take back his crown.

In true Lewis Hamilton styles, the Knight claimed, “Our goal is to win a World Championship. I’m not thinking about eight… I think about a championship like it’s my first.”

Ready to bring the championship back to Brackley, the legend has made his war cry heard. As the clock ticks to the first race of the season, will Hamilton and his Silver Arrows finally claim their redemption?
