Although people, for one reason or the other, often stray away from their core, it is almost impossible to forget it. Lewis Hamilton embodied that when he came across a remote control car again at the age of 37.

The seven-time world champion famously started his racing career with a remote-controlled car. The famous video of Hamilton competing in a race, which he later won, with utmost focus, is his core. Hamilton has maintained the same intensity and dedication when it comes to racing until now.

Interestingly enough, Hamilton has also kept his love for remote-controlled cars until now. The Brit, at the Japanese GP weekend, found himself in a toy store and got his hands on a massive yellow colored remote-controlled truck. Hamilton instantly started testing his new truck on the streets, as seen in a post on his Instagram.

The Mercedes man clearly enjoyed his new truck as he let out a “woohoo.” Not just that, Hamilton also showed his excitement at his truck’s capabilities and said, “it does a wheelie”.

The innocence in the video Hamilton shared three days ago, and the one from 1992, is on par.
