F1, Lewis Hamilton’s confession displaces everyone

Lewis Hamilton confesses, “Normal road driving stresses me out, and I’m afraid of spiders”

Seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton said in an interview with Vanity Fair that it is much more stressful for him to drive on the roads as everyone does than on the track at 300 mph.

“I personally find normal driving on the roads really stressful. So much happens on the roads, anything can happen, at intersections and beyond.” Lewis Hamilton also revealed that he has a phobia of spiders: “I always ask for the highest rooms in the hotel to avoid bugs and spiders. People tell me, “You drive 300 mph!” but I think we are all calibrated differently from each other.”
