Lewis Hamilton reveals his favorite video games
In a November 16 interview with Jake Lucky, Formula One driver Lewis Hamilton, who holds the joint record of seven World Drivers’ Championship titles has revealed his favorite games to play.
“I really like Starfield, the new Starfield,” he revealed. Not only that, but the World Champion driver also admitted he enjoys hopping between titles such as Call of Duty and Fortnite.
“Call of Duty is something, I’m like back to back with Call of Duty and Fortnite. I’d say I’d prefer Fortnite because I prefer the building aspect to it,” said the Mercedes driver.
The 38-year-old holds the records for the most wins, pole positions, and podium finishes, among others. Some even claim Hamilton is the best driver to compete in Formula One.
Recently, Hamilton joined Fortnite’s Icon Series, with the star-studded racing driver joining other celebs such as LeBron James, Eminem, and more to get his very own skin in-game.
