7-time F1 world champion Lewis Hamilton went undercover this weekend at Donington Park to watch his brother, Nicolas, race today for he British Touring Car Championships.
Posting to his Instagram stories, the undercover driver was dressed in a black, hooded coat and covered his face so he wasn't spotted at the track as he watched his brother as he took home 7th place for his Cupra team.
"Lewis Hamilton is one of us," a fan posted with a screenshot of Lewis looking under the radar.

Nicolas Hamilton is the younger half-brother of Lewis Hamilton, and has been a strong supporter of his brother who supports him back equally. Born with cerebral palsy, Nicolas has faced many challenges throughout his life, but he has never let his condition hold him back with him becoming a successful racing driver in his own right. He's competed in the British Touring Car Championship and the Renault Clio Cup UK.
Nicolas is also a motivational speaker, using his experiences to inspire others and raise awareness about disability issues. He is a true inspiration to many, both on and off the track, and this loving show from the brothers has got plenty of fans talking about it on Twitter.

I feel sorry for the people who stood next to him and had no idea it was him. That would kill me so much if that happened https://t.co/17C1TvRBfM

Most successful F1 driver, at a UK track in the rain, watching his brother get his best finish in BTCC. Not using his name to get access to cover or pits to not to take attention from Nic
