Formula 1 fans were taken aback during the Belgian Grand Prix as Lewis Hamilton reported a bizarre issue in his car after taking the lead in Spa Francorchamps.

The British driver got off to a fantastic lead in Stavelot, but radioed his team early on in the race telling them 'Something's moving down by my legs'.

Dirty-minded social media users on X - the community known as F1 Twitter - were quick to jump on the comment, assuming that Hamilton was implying something other than a mechanical issue inside his car.

Obviously, F1 fans these days love a bit of innuendo, so a lot of fun was had on social media following Hamilton's message.
