After returning from Africa, Lewis is already neck deep in work for Mercedes. Before starting the second leg of his last season with the Silver Arrows, he went for an interview for the team’s press entourage. There, he recounted when his former McLaren teammate Heikki Kovalainen played heavy metal music. He said, “When I was with Heikki, he was playing like heavy metal stuff. I was like, “Oh my God, my head is going to explode.”
