As the Emilia-Romagna Grand Prix got postponed last month, drivers spent this break from a busy calendar to relax, see family, or head back to the simulator. Lewis Hamilton, the seven-time Formula 1 world champion, used the opportunity to delve deeper into the script of his upcoming F1 film. With him listed as a producer and adviser to the Brad Pitt-led movie, he's dropped a hint about the possible part he may play in the movie.

With the spotlight on A-list actor who will be a lead actor in the upcoming movie, Hamilton shared a snippet about his role. Even though the British driver showed little interest in the limelight, he hinted at a small on-screen role. Yet, he revealed to Sky Sports, it wasn't initially part of the plan.

“I don’t really have any desire to be in front of the camera, but there may be an element in it where maybe I’ll slot in and play a small cameo, but at the moment that’s not the plan,” Hamilton told Sky Sports.

“I’m more enjoying the part in the background, making sure that I’m really talking to Joe [Kosinski] about who we’re hiring,” he continued.

“Making sure that it’s diverse, making sure that the sport looks how it’s supposed to look in the future, in terms of being more accessible.

“Recruitment is going great, and I get to see all of those videos come through of people auditioning for the roles.

“And I get to be part of the decision-making of who we choose, who we like and who is most suited or not."

It's no surprise that Hamilton continues his war against inequality, and we look forward to seeing the results.
