As James grilled the men about their lives, he asks if either of them had any superstitions as he claimed that he’d never met a single sportsperson who wasn’t superstitious.
To this, Tom Brady swiftly replied that he didn’t have any superstitions. As Gordon gasped in disbelief, Lewis did go on to tell a story of his past.
He narrated, “So I did (have a superstition), when I was younger. I think I must’ve been 10 or 11, and my brother gave me this conker. And it was my lucky conker. So I put it in my suit. And I don’t know what happened to the damn thing. Came out my leg, trouser leg or something, I lost this conker.”

Furthermore, he shared how up until he was 17 or 18 years old, he’d have a routine that he’d go about before the race. He said, “These steps that I would take. And I remember I got in the car, I was in Germany, And I’m about to start the race, and my helmet wasn’t done up. So I’ve missed one of those elements of these steps that I had made crucial to getting the job done. And I remember I crashed several seconds later.”
“After that I was like, this is ridiculous.”
“And now, I’m like Tom, I don’t have any of those things,” Hamilton said, smiling.
