Lewis Hamilton has been one of the most fierce competitors in Formula 1 for many years. But when it comes to racing, the seven-time world champion will get on top of his rival's head and show no mercy. It could be his teammates or rivals from other teams.
But on the other hand, Hamilton has always been a funny guy outside the race car. He was always cool when sharing the paddock with the other drivers. Over the years, we had many hilarious moments in F1 involving Lewis Hamilton.
Here, we have one funny moment, where he chooses his next interviewer with a rock, paper, scissors match. F1’s biggest reporters, Lawrence Barretto and Will Buxton, were waiting outside the Paddock to get a glimpse of Lewis.

The video was a throwback where Hamilton was seen in Mercedes colours, most probably during the 2021, where he had his toughest championship fight against Max Verstappen. The seven-time world champion was coming out, and the two reporters lined up to get an interview with the Brit.
Lewis was left confused in choosing between the two reports, and he came up with a brilliant idea. The rock, paper, scissors method has been the universal game for deciding winners and losers in any sport. Hamilton suggested the two have a match of rock, paper, scissors.
The two F1 journalists immediately accepted the challenge, and in the end, Will Buxton defeated Lawrence Barretto and got the chance to interview Lewis Hamilton. This shows the hilarious side of the F1 legend and his way of handling the media and the people around him.
Hamilton is now out of Mercedes and driving for the Ferrari team, where he won the F1 Sprint race at the Chinese Grand Prix. This was the first ever sprint race win for Hamilton and Ferrari, but the former world champion failed to win the main race. He was also disqualified alongside his teammate Charles Leclerc after they failed in the post race checkups. The next race is the 2025 F1 Japanese Grand Prix.
