Lewis Hamilton's SAVAGE six-word Jack Whitehall put down
An exchange between Jack Whitehall and Lewis Hamilton has been unveiled ahead of F1's live launch
Lewis Hamilton is set for a huge battle on the F1 track this season, but first there may be one he has to settle off of it with presenter Jack Whitehall.
A clip has emerged from The Graham Norton Show in 2015, where Hamilton issued a savage put down towards Whitehall when they were both guests on the chat show.
Both Hamilton and Whitehall will be reunited at F1 75’s live launch at the O2 arena, where the British comedian will present the unveiling of all 10 liveries.

The event will be the first of its kind where all 20 drivers will showcase their 2025 challengers on stage, in front of an audience of F1 fans.
Not only will fans see their favourite F1 stars live on stage, but will also be treated to live entertainment including musicals acts Take That and Machine Gun Kelly.

Hamilton and Whitehall in awkward exchange
However, Whitehall will be hoping that F1’s live launch goes down better than his appearance with Hamilton over a decade ago on Graham Norton's chat show, where the 40-year-old teased Whitehall for his inability to drive.
"Can you park, are you good at the whole shebang or just the fast bit?" Whitehall asked.
Hamilton clapped back with a savage putdown "we know that you can’t drive”, a comment that produced a gasp from the live audience.
"How does a man not have a drivers license?" Hamilton continued.
Whitehall refused to give into the bait and replied with a quick response: "I get picked up by the chicks."
