Over Christmas, aside from spending time with his family, Mercedes star Lewis Hamilton went online to have a go at the video game – Gran Turismo.
But it did not go well for the 7-time world champion as he kept getting driven off the road. In a video shared by Mercedes on their social media, Hamilton shared his experience by sharing the anecdote.
The Briton revealed that there was a fan who had Hamilton’s initials like LH, Lewis, Lewis GB or something 44 and he kept taking Hamilton out. The fan, meanwhile, did not realise that it was the Mercedes star himself he was playing against.
Hamilton’s teammate George Russell who was sitting right next to him, jokingly said, “you’ve found me.”
