What a legend. Cant wait to see his F1 career continue to unfold. Were gonna be talkin about this guy for many years to come!
7 world championships later
103 wins
3 at monaco
37% win percentage
54% win percentage from 2013-present day
103 pole positions
Pretty much every record you want
12 years later = G.O.A.T
Damn seeing comments like this blows my mind. Who knew he would become arguably one of the best drivers of all time.
You’re an absolute time traveler
i really hope you put money on that prophecy you typed out 13 years ago
What? As a woke twat who should shut his mouth.
Little did they know that man would go on to become a 6 time world champion
Edit: 7 time champion
I love this comment!
little did they know...
without best car he will suck
@@djkidii are you sure about that
Kiddi there’s a reason no other driver got that car
5:42...................ricciardo asked lando norris the same question LMAAOOOOO
This is where he took the inspiration from 😂
i was always wondering wtf does it mean. now i got it thx man
Watching this again, after seeing the Ricciardo and Lando interview and I am dying. LOL
Ricciardo asked Max in a video of Red Bull first
Karthik Sekaran lmao
After his heroics at Silverstone today, he should come back and drive the Reasonably Priced Car with three wheels.
I’ve just seen your comment from 4 years ago on top of this one 😂😂
Reliant Robin
But after Silverstone this year they should ask someone else what it is like to crash.
And after the bullshit he pulled in 2021, he won't even be invited
Here after his 100th win
5:42 This is where Daniel Ricciardo took his question for Lando Norris. And on the same subject as well.
yoooo i just realized that
“You should be aroused”
-Daniel Ricciardo
Fuckin Aussie
Jeremy is genuinely shocked by Lewis's lap time and so he should be, it is bloody fast for the conditions in which he done the lap. I also love the way Lewis is so casual/innocent about it. Does anyone know how old lewis actually is? He is only 23 years old. Unbelievable!!
How are you after 13 years, how has your life changed
Such a talented yet humble guy, I wish him nothing but the best :)
Damn...

Who's here after his 7th British GP victory with a tyre blown
No one cares
not sure why RUclips suggest such a thing after such an accomplishment
As far as I'm aware he is the only man to win a race on 3 wheels

BIGGEST BURN EVER

And then dissapears )
It took Jeremy a second to realize the joke
@@norbertmikoajczyk1454 Actually he had Heikki Kovalainen the next two years who was fairly useless. Not bad just not amazing.
Unless I'm mistaken on his talent
Nobody ever knew looking at younger Lewis that he's going to beat Schumacher's record with 92 wins.
What a Legend🏎️
Was kimi drunk?
No because he did not have his drink
JhyunCho I got that reference
Do you mean the slow batton?
😂😂😂😂😂
Daamn, honestly i always thought he was drunk when he airs his programs, but NO apparently he is not drunk mate. :)
Bwooah
All I'm saying is things have changed. For both men.

Hello👋🏾
I am not saying I "knew" anything about him, but I damn sure was rooting for him to become the amazing driver he was based quite a bit on how cool he was in this interview (and on track) years ago. Bravo, Lewis!!
Lewis Hamilton is clearly one of the best drivers of the last 10 years
For me, the 2 best drivers in the grid are F.Alonso and L.Hamilton
Alonso is the most complete and Hamilton is the most talented
+Mister Benjy Imo Vettel > Hamilton
no
max verstappen!!
+Geert Wilders goed punt geertje
what about sebastian vettel
cocky and pompous?? I watched this never seeing Lewis being interviewed before and thought he was respectful, funny and charming.
People change

Anyone here after that incredible Turkish Grand Prix
this guy looks really talented, he should try picking up racing for once
Lewis : Im not here to compete
Also Lewis : Fastest lap on wet and oil

Hh

Do people remember how Lewis ended up on Top Gear?? Jeremy won AN award at the NTA's, Lewis presented it to him and Jeremy called him out live on TV about not being able to appear because Mercedes wouldn't allow him to drive a car that wasn't a Merc.
two weeks later..................
really? so then mercedes allowed him to appear because of that?
@@alexm566 basically yeh
He looks 12 in that helmet lmao
This Lewis kid has talent, I bet we’ll listening more of him in the future.
I'd rather see him than listening him personally
This guy is just so cool and humble. I love his attitude and the way he drives! Whenever I'm tense or stressed I just watch this and have a laugh and then go for a drive. This is my favorite interview. This and the Simon Cowell one.
You wouldn’t believe this but….

🏎️🏎️🏎️
Loved your interview on the Senna segment for Top Gear. I'm 38 and just learned how to drive. And though I don't aspire to be F1 status anytime soon, that segment was inspiring and mark my words, I will become fast. Good luck to you, sir. I can see your parents raised a good man.
It's been 9 years.. you fast yet?
4:53 little did Jeremy know that it would come in handy in a couple of years time..
Rubens did the fastest lap 1:44.3 in the dry so I can't believe Lewis did a 1:44.7 in wet/oily conditions. I compared them frame by frame and Lewis is fast and tidy, different, sometimes tighter lines. Amazing. I dunno how he does it. Did they ever get Vettel in this show? Button is somewhat more cautious, when he came to Manila, he lost an exhibition karting race to one of the local champions
Yes, Vettel was there later on, and did 1:44:0, faster than both Rubens Barrichello and the Stig. When Hamilton returned in series 19, he did a 1:42:9 in dry conditions.
@@SprengePotetgullbrodie finally got his answer 12 years later😭
Its nice to prove that Lewis is actually a genuine guy. Makes me smile every time.
5:42 oh how it's come full circle 😂
Excellent. There is no vid of his lap on dry track no ? I didn't find it. I love Lewis Hamilton and his lap is awesome, singing, drifting, and at the end, cutting the corners and doing some 4x4
Look how relaxed and natural-seeming he was in that Liana. It's that kind of ease at getting into the zone that must give him that edge.
From a Tifosi to the new champ, hats off to you and may you put up the same nail-biting fight against the boys in red next season.
Cheers.
Now he's a 7 world time champion
'ladies and gentlemen, LEWIS HAMILTON!!!' ..... that on its own got my thumbs up lol
"The car is good man"
"The car is crap man.. You know that."
Wow barack obama is actually a really good driver
Are you jealous by the fact that he doesn't look like you?. Think of it that way, if Lewis farts on your face, you will immediately start driving!, he is made of crude oil brotha, you please respect people who are best in what they do.
@@vishalcful i don't think you people have jokes where you come from
@@sakshamsharma4759 hahaha, we do have the naughtiest jokes to tell bru :), smile ;)
@@vishalcful shut the fuck up street shitter
Imagine Senna having a go in the Liana. That would be a great lap :)
07:47
Never thought I'd might say this as a Fernando Alonso fan, but I miss the Mclaren Lewis Hamilton / the old Lewis.
8:57 Everybody asked the same question after 2020 Turkish Grand Prix. How did he do that?
back when he is just young promising driver with a humble background. if he stays at mclaren i think he would have better attitude than now
He's pretty humble nowadays, compared to Rosberg for example.
McLaren gave up on him???? They gave Button control over the direction of the car and look at McLaren now there shit.
+jnd99 rosberg is just an under pressure robot. Hamilton act more like he is a Grammy winning rapper.
You are classless and your accusations are baseless. You just don't like Lewis and calling him a rapper? He sings and plays the piano how does that make him a rapper?
Hater
+AyrtonHamilton2785 yeah i'm hamilton hater. No doubt about his driving skills he is great. But he never drive bad car in his entire career. He is good driver but he didn't act like an F1 driver. Show his picture to someone who don't follow f1 they will think he is a rapper thanks to his gold necklace
This man has no competition. He's a natural.
Lewis Hamilton 1.42.9 Dry Lap.
+Marcy Marc When? What season? Was The Stig's lap dry or wet?I don't watch the show regularly but it is one of my favorites!
+Daniel Smith Season 19 Episode 4, Check out Matt LeBlanc’s lap as well he got a 1.42.1
+Marcy Marc in a faster Vauxhall Astra I think
+Marcy Marc Matt was also driving an astra, this Suzuki is NOWHERE near as fast as the astra was.
Daniel Ricciardo - 1:42.2
Finally a F-1 driver with a personality ...Lewis is much more down to earth than most .
Sadly it has taken over 50 years for the sport to head in this direction.
Not anymore
Holy shit this aged like milk
Little did we know that the joke at 5:43 would snap Norris in a press conference years later
No way did clarkson and Lewis have the same convo and Ricardo and Norris 😂😂
Greetings from Brazil, Hamilton ! Nice interview ! =D
Normal, nice guy. Very fast F1 driver. So charismatic. This is why I love this man.
Yeah. Very fast
Yeah we all love him. Look how far our Hammy boi has come.
he is really a great driver, one of the best in the whole racing history
This aged well
@@zacsutton4109 fr
@@zacsutton4109 it did. He is still a cool guy and a good driver.
Keep replaying the "come on man 56 mph WHAT THE?" Love it
Well I'm a fan of Jensen and Lewis, but what Lewis has accomplished is pretty incredible no matter how good the equipment is. But I think both will win more championships hopefully one of em will do it this year.
15 years ago this man was sympatic
7:20 "Come on man! 56 miles in hour, what the!?" LOL
I wish this was still a thing so we could see drivers from now (Verstappen Leclerc Norris perez vettel etc.) compete against eachother and these lap times.
"It's a diesel!"
Amazing! Lewis the Best!
What a cool, relaxed guy. Seems really nice.
He is THE most dominant driver in the world, probably ever.
+Theo 80126 Most dominant driver ever? 1. it´s all down to the Merc and 2. when he dominates with Mercedes for 5 years straight then we can talk about calling him the most dominant driver ever.
Who now, in your opinion, is a better driver? I recall two years ago him starting in pit lane and finishing an extremely close 2nd.
And the year after on the same track he driving like he had been drinking last night. One race does not prove anything. Otherwise Vettel´s 2008 Italian grand prix where he won in STR pretty much says it all.
Theo 80126 jim Clark ?
So weird seeing him without a Mercedes logo in sight.
i think this is why lando laughing when dany ric askes him the same question 5:45
Hamilton drew on points with Alonso in 2007, despite Alonso being unhappy with everything that season.
Alonso is still the fastest man in the field, and certainly the most mature and consistant driver. He'll surely win a few more championships before he's done.
This did not age well
Oof this didn’t age well
This made by heart break
2024 Alonso...
wow i just watched him win from the back in karting when he was only 13 now look at this guy!!
yes exactly! i never thought much of it untill i watched this interview again the other day
it was fun watching this interview now
THIS MAN IS LEGEND. end of the story
Aged like the finest wine. 9 years oof
@@TattvaRajput24 why the oof tho
@@Papato1234 i wrote oof to emphasise how old this comment is.
Some time ago I thought the stig was him
now hes US president ;)
Martin Rychtera huh?
i got like from James Bond :) thats cool! and this means that it is true!
jam63112 Hamilton doesn't have time to be the stig
Actually, in 2008, the STR outperformed the RBR for the most part. The STR3-which replaced the STR2B at Monaco (the sixth race)-driven at Monza was a Newey design. Plus, in Monza, the Toro Rosso's were particularly quick for some reason (Bourdais qualifying on the second row). I'm not taking anything away from Vettel because he is a fantastic driver, but nowadays and even in the past, a significant factor for winning in F1 has been down to the car performance in addition to driver skill.
i didnt define that we should subtract 4s because of wet and oily, its defined by topgear. the stig said that if the track is wet and oily youre slower by 4s. coincidentally, the stig said its the same 4s with snow.
I laughed my ass off at Clarkson's reaction when Lewis says the car is good! Lmao!
You can see it in his eyes that he isn't satisfied as he isn't on top....😊.... What are racer! 👏🏼👌🏼
all you haters make me laugh so much...he is a very confident guy and a brilliant driver..a great in the making.. in the UK we are mot supposed to talk about race .... even when its blatant...as you keep hatimg he will just keep winning
"Average guy"
Well that comment aged well
Would have been cool to see Senna go around. I heard he raced against some other pros all in the same cars and he was dominating them all
The STIG 1:44.4 this guy is legendary.
On a track he's driven in a million times he better be fastest
On a track he's driven in a million times he better be fastest
1:44.4 on a dry Top Gear Test track is pretty meh...
Damn, so The Stig is a former or current super famous F1 driver?
Maybe The Stig is Lewis Hamilton? lol
I believe it was Schumacher for some time ( nope: the show jokingly unmasked the Stig as seven-time world champion F1 driver Michael Schumacher.) It was Ben Collins from 2003 til 2010.
amazing interview
It all depends on cutting corners relative to everyone else. Everyone cuts follow through, and the last two corners, so no one gains more of an advantage than any one else. I haven't seen any other f1 driver cut hammerhead, so he gained more of an advantage compared to everyone who didn't. And for a car that accelerates so slowly, cutting corners makes a huge difference, much more than 0.5s.
Living Legend
A true champion. Makes it look so easy. One of the greatest Brits alive today.
man i miss these format shows
5:42 “Have you got pubes yet?”
Legendary👏🏼😂
Watching this after Lewis winning his 7th title. You can see how much he's matured. What a champion 💪🏾
what? hes horrible now
that's why he's a world champion...( several times )
I remember hearing from somewhere that you could buy the cars from two or three seasons prior to the current one.
Just came from an unofficial top gear clip with an old interview of sebastian vettel in 720p
Coming to the official top gear channel with a newer interview of lewis hamilton, in glorious 360p
oil and wanter amazing
Lewis is such a legend i love the man,nice man and incredible drvier.. Good luck in 2009 lewis
WEll done mate (y)

I love him
That was a proper pop when Jeremy said his name
@Jessica01274 like the racing condition. the ground. had rain so it was wet. dry is like dry lap . . . the ground is dry. . . no rain. or oil . . .
yeah 2019 he is a legend now 😁
I wish if you could get a bodybuilder on your show. Would be thrilling..... Like Phil Heath, Jay Cuttler, Ronnie Colemann or the best of all.... Arnold Schwarzenegger..... Exciting.... :)
Because all them bodybuilders are American. Haha!
SolaceAndBane Since when is Arnold Schwarzenegger American...?

Husain Barafwala Britain very own Mr Olympia Dorian Yates
A great driver and a great lap. I still think the 5 stone heavier and 30 year older Nigel Mansell owned the track. I wonder how many laps it took the Stig to beat his time.
1:35 🎶We going down the pub.🎶
I like girl behind Jeremy :-D She has very nice smile.
Some say she's the Stig.
MrTURBOJOHN lol some also say she breeds the next crop of F1 drivers within the Top Gear Technology Centre
Cool! I thought I had really bad taste for liking her... :P Nice to know other people do too...hahah
Sumant S Really, there's no bad taste, if you like fat girls, skinny girls, big/small, Whatever. IT'S YOUR TASTE. there's no one with a ruler telling you what to like on a girl.
If you like them, it's your choice.
Never feel pressed by other people when it comes to your feelings, other people come and go, your feelings stay with you.
If we all said she was ugly, it should not affect your opinion about her.
MrTURBOJOHN no, they gota be closest to victoria secret otherwise ud see fat bitches on VS. Skinny>fat, tall>short
"The car's good man..."
"The car's CRAP !"
