Sir Lewis Hamilton desires to be an Olympian now. What! Yes, you have read this right. The seven-time World Champion has expressed his wish to be in the Olympics someday. So, will this be another chapter in the life of this fabled racer? Hamilton ventures into different sports outside of Formula 1 and excels in all of them, which is commendable. And, if he ever enters the Olympics, he might excel there as well. Well, who knows?

Lewis Hamilton shared his insights on the upcoming Paris 2024 Olympics with CNN. He is looking forward to supporting his good friend Miles Chamley-Watson. The 39-year-old said that he hadn’t made any commitments to watch the games live, as his presence sometimes would add a lot of pressure on whom he’s rooting for.

The interviewer then asked him if he would fancy an Olympic medal if motorsport ever came to the Games. Hamilton said: “Not for motorsport.” Interjecting Lewis, the interviewer asked, “Surfing?” implying if not motorsport, the legend could definitely take on surfing and possibly win a medal. To this, the Birton replied: “No, I’m not good enough to be surfing. I don’t think I’m good enough to get an Olympic medal. But maybe, I’ll do an Olympic sport one day (if I’m not too old).” Fans will love it if Hamilton truly ventures into Olympic sports and wins.

Wouldn’t it be an ethereal experience to witness one’s idol who has won everything that is there to win and broken all records ever made in F1 shift into a different sport and do the thing he does the best – win? No matter how and when Hamilton transitions or if he ever transitions, his fans will always have his back.

Lewis Hamilton is the Jack of all Trades in the world of sports and entertainment

Not just F1, Lewis Hamilton has a keen interest in other sports and entertainment. In addition to racing, he played football and cricket in his school days. He even considered a career as a professional footballer, but eventually, it was the motorsport that captured his heart the most.

Hamilton is a known motorcycle racing fan. From swapping machines with Valentino Rossi, to now planning to own a MotoGP team, the F1 maestro is showing his various sides to the world. He is also a frequent surfer and is often spotted out in the ocean with his surfing board.

Besides sports, Hamilton is involved in the fashion and film industries. He is the co-producer of the upcoming F1 racing movie starring Brad Pitt. The veteran has a knack for music and has featured in Christina Aguilera’s song ‘Pipe’, under the pseudonym XNDA.

So, now be the judge. Is there anything that Lewis Hamilton can’t do? It won’t be a surprise if he picks up an Olympic sport someday and chooses to compete in the Games. Who knows, he could win a medal or two!
