Lewis Hamilton Reveals the Adventurous Escapades of “Best Travel Pet” Roscoe Amid Hectic F1 Lifestyle

Formula 1 drivers often use different strategies to keep their minds relaxed during race weeks. Some of them chill with their families, whilst some of the drivers indulge in their hobbies. However, Lewis Hamilton is a little different. The $285 million man travels with his best friend Roscoe, everywhere he goes. In a recent interview, Hamilton explains what it’s like to travel with his best friend.

Mercedes man Lewis Hamilton has won almost everything in F1. He holds several records and accolades and is also the record-highest championship winner with Michael Schumacher. Lewis travels around the world to different locations. However, he makes sure his pet Roscoe is always beside him.

Lewis answers what it is like traveling with his ‘vegan’ bulldog in a recent interview. Hamilton said, “Roscoe is the best travel pet. He just sleeps with you. Our first flight was out to Denver, Colorado. I remember him being by my feet. I fell asleep, and then I woke up to him tapping my leg, and he’s looking at me, and it is almost like, “I need to go to the toilet, dad.”

Furthermore, he added, “I don’t know if he did, but this was three hours into a 10-hour flight. I said, “Go back to sleep,” so he goes back to sleep. Then he woke up again, did the same thing. But all he really wanted was to get on my lap and hug — and he is not the smallest of dogs. So I was sleeping in a seat with him like a baby on my lap.”

Lewis Hamilton discloses what he packs to eat while Traveling

The life of an F1 driver is not as easy as it looks on the outside. The constant travel from one corner of the world to another wears them down. Furthermore, it is also important for them to take care of their dietary requirements as well. Whether you are traveling or eating something before a race, your diet is always very particular. Hamilton shares what type of food he carries with him while traveling.

Lewis follows a plant-based diet and has often shared the positive effects of switching to a vegan diet and how it has helped him. When asked if there are any particular snacks he carries while traveling, he said, “I always take instant noodles with me, like miso soup noodles. I’m relatively particular with food. I would say I’m way more adventurous now than I ever was before going plant-based.”

He further said, “I always take little protein bars with me and protein powder. I just mix that with water anywhere I go. That helps me stay hydrated. I also like to have a canister so I can see how much water I’ve drunk in a day.”

Hamilton also mentions that he is a very visual person and that’s why he’d have never tried hummus before turning vegan. However, now the Mercedes star just can’t get enough of it.
