Off-Pitch

Hamilton makes friends with Tiger

Formula One drivers live life on the edge by racing around tracks at over 200mph but Lewis Hamilton has gone one further by celebrating his recent triumph in an unfamiliar way.

The average man would pop a bottle of champagne or take a holiday but Hamilton decided to play with a tiger.

Hamilton approaches the adorable but powerful tiger (and please don’t try this at home) before the cute creature rises to give the Brit a hug.

The 31-year-old then takes a step back and says ‘woahhh’ as the tiger shows him some love.

You can then hear one of the tiger handlers say ‘don’t worry, relax, it’s all good’ to which Hamilton responds ‘she’s big’.

Hamilton has been enjoying a break in Mexico City following his latest triumph on the track at the weekend.
