Lewis Hamilton talks iconic Formula One drive down Fifth Avenue
New Yorkers got a front-row seat to a one-of-a-kind show by one of racing's biggest stars yesterday. Seven-time Formula One World Champion Lewis Hamilton sped down Fifth Avenue, even stopping to do doughnuts right outside the iconic Empire State Building. The stunt was planned to promote a partnership with WhatsApp and Hamilton's Mercedes F1 team, and their growth here in the U.S. Gayle King sat down exclusively with the global superstar right after the stunt.

Lewis don't do any donuts pls Lewis: IT'S HAMMER TIME
I'm keeping it at 44 likes. Its only right
1000x faster than the W15
NY mayor: No donuts ok Hamilton? Hamilton: Of course not! My diet is very strict😉
So glad he did them anyways 🍩
🫡
Lewis : I was told not to do donuts Also Lewis : * does donuts * - Welcome back Lewis the rebel & risk-taker 😂😭
THANK YOU!!! I'VE BEEN TELLING THE WIFEY THIS IS A TAMED LEWIS!!!😃😂
This guy is face of F1 Period!!! even with no race wins from 2022, he is still the man..hence the hate for lewis..
Which hate for Lewis? Nobody talks about Lewis, he is not in the mix anymore
@@hiufgterde he's more relevant than max will ever be
@@coreyrod Well that's not exactly true now is it. He hasn't won a thing in the last two years, won't win anything this season and maybe he'll win a race of 2 next year in the Ferrari but most development will be in the 2026 car so it's very likely Max will also win the 2025 season. So then he'll be at 5 championships already while still being very young. Lewis however is in his last years in F1, he might be relevant to you...but to F1, yeah not so much anymore. Not even sure if he could beat Leclerc to be honest, we'll see..should be fun to watch
@hiufgterde Everyone talks about Hamilton. Everyone was shocked by his sudden move and pundits suddenly remembered what happened the last time he switched teams. Face it - Hamilton is the only superstar in F1, the only driver that brings back the days of old. Do you honestly believe that Hamilton won't do anything in 2025 with Ferrari? Even you don't believe that. In 2023 with that tractor of a car Hamilton still finished 3rd in driver standings. 2025 he will be in a very competitive car. Hamilton and Leclerc _'hopefully"_ working as a team will be a force to reconned with.
@@hiufgterdewinning or not, Hamilton is always in the mix of conversations. Like it or not, he’s the face of F1.
It's Hammer time Lewis! Lewis such a great guy.
Lewis driving down fifth avenue was iconic 😊
Lewis mentions Coming to America in like 50% of interviews, that's the same kind of extreme dedication that made him WDC.
and cool runnings
Coming to America is the Greatest Movie Ever Made.
was he the first f1 driver to do so? pretty awesome. cant wait to see him in ferrari red next year. hopefully with newey besides him
Newey probaly wont come till 2026 because of rules
@@amgoneisdopehahahaha not! Newey has already left rebul and is talking to Ferrari!!! 🎉🎉🎉 cry me a river
@@wilton999 Oh my bad I didn't clarify "NEWEY" wont go to ferrari until 2026
@@amgoneisdope actually RB has released him from next year. his gardening leave effectively starts now and he is stepping away from RBs f1 department. he will only work on the rb17 super roadcar till early next year and then he is free to join another team
I live in NYC why wasn’t I notified of this yesterday ? 😢😅
Bet Lewis loved driving that W12... 🔥
We call him Sir Lewis in Britain, proper living legend :)
No one calls him Sir Lewis here in the UK...🙄🙄🙄
I prefer Sir Woke.
Sir Lullu
@@_Ben4810 we do
@@oldfartgaming6273 Only idiots call him 'Lulu'.
If that street was in Europe would be packed with people.
It wasn't marketed - on purpose to avoid huge crowds blocking the street!
Sir Lewis brings that GOAT energy to New York! What a legendary man, I'm a DIE-HARD fan. 🐐🔥
I like Max but he doesn't have this kinda charisma and energy sorry
Max is totally fine with that, he'll take the trophy home in the end, that's all he cares about.
@@hiufgterdethat's bad for the business of making money, as in F1 as a whole
@@hc2777 And Lewis is better why exactly? Cause he likes to dress up and be a posterboy for the BLM and DEI movement? Yeah I couldn't give a crap about all that, I just watch them race. Others seem to be more in the drive to survive drama camp, whatever works for you.
agree, sometimes people forget that F1 is also an entertainment, having uncharismatic character has always been a problem @@hc2777
This is so wholesome !!! Full circle moment for him !!!
He's the🐐
Nope, that would still be Schumacher
@@hiufgterde I respectfully disagree. So would the numbers. I won't argue your opinion. Especially one with such validity. I just disagree.
@@_coachcraig_ hamilton isnt even the best brithish driver ever so how can he be the goat also when he was 26 he had 13 victories max is 26 and has already 58 (and 59 in 3 days lol)
@@Querientje Again, I'm not arguing anyone's opinion. I have my own. But I can't take you seriously with that first sentence.
What a great time
Very,very cool New York
Un león en NY❤El mejor piloto.Hay que disfrutar cada una de sus carreras.Mantiene a Mercedes en los mejores lugares,a pesar de todo.
Wow, I wish I was there, Lewis ☝🏾☝🏾☝🏾☝🏾💪🏾
My absolute favorite F1 driver!
Bro just imagine if the 2022 Regulation cars worked that well he would have 2 more titles by now
*THROUGH GOES HAMILTON!*
Bono, my tyres are gone.
Sir Lewis, The GOAT
I moved to New York and was so afraid of failing. I literally lived on 5th Avenue and one block from the Empire State Building. After a month or so I asked my friend why so many people are alway standing here. She said, are you serious??! This is the Empire State Building.
Definitely a happy huge deal for me! 😊 Super excited to see Lewis doing donuts on Fifth Avenue! Wow… A sight to remember dearly in my lifetime 💜💛🫶🏻😊
I specifically watched because he was gonna do donuts !! Ty Lewis H
Wow he made a lot of peoples day 🎉🎉🎉🎉
It’s nothing comparing to the sound of the V10.
Absolutely love Sir Lewis Hamilton ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
That car is 100000000x faster than the W15 and anything Logan races
Maybe f1 in new york soon
He technically didn't do("eat") donut.
Her hair is lovely though...!!!
❤
Look its a tracktor
If only fifth avenue were a little further from sixth avenue....
ofc I'm seeing the likes on 544
To close to pass not to close to win.
And then there was Sebastian Vettel
Interesting never see him as highly publicized as this guy
still hate the fact he was cheated out of his 8th title. Masi, its on your head for ever!. but man.. imagine if he pulls it off with Ferrari!!. not only would it be a spectacle, it would break the long standing Ferrari curse for past championship winning drivers going team red. Ferrari would absolutely love it, not just from the standpoint of breaking their long standing absence from an F1 championship title, but also the fact a title with Hamilton would come bearing the glory of that 8th standing, the highest in the sports history and staying under the banner of Team Red as it did with Its past highest championship holder Michael Schumacher. Mercedes though winning so many championships with Hamilton will be gutted that such a standing would not be marked under their team banner.
Hasn't he got a American passport? May as well have
🏎️👍👍👍🤗😘🥰❤️
Don't do Donuts??? The Major of NY probably does not know what Formula 1 is. Maybe he thinks it's infant food and sure, no one can do donuts with that one.
NY doing well for hosting non American sports……F1 (Lewis Hamilton), Cricket World Cup 2024 (India vs Pakistan), FIFA World Cup 2026 Final
Hamilton is a great driver. But Senna was the GOAT.
Nice government street takeover.😏
Did some donuts in a tractor
You are too kind... more like lawnmower
The W12 wasn't a tractor. Lol
That's not the W15 mate, it's the W12 with the W15 livery.
ABSOLUTAMENTE GENIAL LEWIS❤
Only one the fastest racing cars ever made...
What a news wow... Anyway!
Did he managed to miss the Migrants !
I love donuts. 🩰🧃
