‘Workaholic’ Lewis Hamilton Faces Angela Cullen Savagery in Hysterical ‘Control Freak’ Debate
Follow Us
We all know Lewis Hamilton for being a leader, a go-getter, and even an activist. These traits have been the unsung hero of his triumph in F1, also separating him from the pack. Notably, he is the only black driver in the sport right now, and with his never give up and still we rise attitude, he has been able to dominate the sport for so many years.
However, an undisclosed personality trait of the seven-time world champion came to light in an interview. The Briton spoke about how he likes to spend his time when not racing and what helps him disconnect from the sport.

The interviewer asked, “What do you do when you’re not racing? Like what sort of floats your boat when you’re not in that mindset of having to sort of control so many things?”
Hamilton commented, “Well, my dad’s a control freak and naturally I probably am a bit of a control freak,” before turning to his performance coach, Angella Cullen, for her opinion.

He asked her, “Am I a control freak Ange? Am I a control freak?” Cullen chuckled and nodded her head to give her approval for associating the Brit with that personality trait.

As a result, Hamilton couldn’t help but burst into laughter and tried to cover up by saying, “Um, I don’t know, I work a lot, I am a workaholic. I like being busy, I like challenging myself, every single day with something news. I like to start my day by listing off what it is I want to achieve that day.”
How does Lewis Hamilton disconnect from F1?
Emotions run high in Formula 1, be it for a driver in the cockpit or the pit crew in the garage. As important as it is for a driver to be fine-tuned on a race weekend, it is equally important to take a break and reset to ensure peak performance throughout the season.
It might be a difficult task for us to not think about the premier racing league between two race weekends, but in his 16th year in F1, the Mercedes ace has become accustomed to this lifestyle. He talked about the off-track activities that help him build focus.

This caught the interviewer off-guard as she exclaimed, “Here? oh my god, you fit piano lessons in, what does that do for your brain when you’re preparing for a race?”
“It just challenges your mind and actually being able to focus on something different. When I leave the race track and when I am not at the race track. I am not thinking about racing a lot. I try and switch off, I sky-dive, I like surfing,” the 37-year-old concluded.
