With the 2022 F1 season finally over, Lewis Hamilton and all the other drivers on the grid were left with plenty of time to spend before the racing action finally gets underway. The 7 time world champion on the other hand had his own way of having fun and it all went down in the land of the rising sun. It seems like he couldn’t be left alone with any car.
You take a Formula 1 driver and give him the keys to your white Nissan R34 and leave him alone on the streets of Japan. What you will get in return is a beast with the sole intention of lighting up the path and going berserk. That’s exactly what Lewis seemed to have done and it’s something that’s we’re all so excited about. The Mercedes driver never disappoints when it comes to entering the fans.
After a long season without scoring any wins, Lewis Hamilton still managed to put up a great fight till the very end. His teammate however managed to win in Brazil where the team secured a 1-2 finish. During the off season, we’re sure that Lewis is gonna be up to no good and this is just the start. Here is how Twitter reacted to his the video of him taking a Nissan R34 out for a spin.

It is clear that the Mercedes driver went all out in the Nissan to a point where smoke was coming out even from the transmission. After a long and tough season behind the wheel of the Mercedes, it was nice to see him blow off some steam and have some fun for a change. A much needed break after which preparation will be underway for the 2023 season as the 7 time world champion is hungry for an 8th.
