FORMULA ONE fans have been sent into meltdown after seeing “that Lewis Hamilton’s bit” in the trailer for a docu-series.
Netflix is set to release the new season of its iconic series Drive to Survive, which covers the motorsport.
Hamilton, 39, only appeared in the trailer for the sixth season for a mere snapshot.
In his scene, he is having a conversation with Mercedes principal Toto Wolff over his future on the team.
Hamilton is heard saying to Wolff that he can stay in the team for “20 more years”.
However, Hamilton then ends his remark by saying, “I can’t”, hinting at his future exit.
