Lewis Hamilton’s love for cars should not be a surprise to anyone. The man is a Formula 1 driver, and a 7-time world champion on top of that he owns several supercars. But there is one from the collection; he does not prefer to take it out for a ride.

The boy from Stevenage may have had a humble beginning, but his love for cars started when he was as young as 6 years of age. This happened when his father bought him a remote-controlled car. 2 years later, he was already karting. Today, he owns like, 15 cars, each better than the last. But there is one that he does not particularly like to drive.

Lewis Hamilton’s love-hate relationship with his Pagani Zonda

The Pagani Zonda LH is a one-of-its-kind machine. No, we are not exaggerating. There really is one Pagani Zonda LH in the world. That is because Lewis got it custom made from Pagani. Lewis admitted he loves the sound it makes, however, is not a fan of the way it drives.

In his 2018 interview with driving.co.uk, Lewis said, “The Zonda is terrible to drive! It’s the best-sounding car I own, but handling-wise it’s the worst. I got it in manual because I didn’t like the Tiptronic version.” Continuing on his love for driving cars with a manual transmission, he said, “The Tiptronic Pagani offered was worse than the Smart Roadster I had. I’m used to quick gear shifts, so I’m more critical than most customers. If you asked me to design my own supercar I’d have it manual.”
