    In a lively episode of The Graham Norton Show, Lewis Hamilton, the seven-time Formula 1 World Champion, shared the spotlight with the quick-witted comedian Jack Whitehall. After the usual warm introductions, the conversation quickly steered into the humorous realm of driving—an ironic twist, considering Lewis Hamilton's profession.

    Graham, with his signature cheeky charm, kicked things off by asking, "Did you drive here tonight?" To which Lewis, ever so cool, simply replied, "I didn’t." The audience chuckled, sensing where this might be heading. Graham, ever curious, followed up with, "Do you ever drive?"

    Lewis, known for his speed on the track but perhaps not as much on the streets, admitted with a grin, "I very rarely drive." This playful revelation led Jack Whitehall to jump in, seizing the moment to ask, "Can you park?"

    Before the audience could catch their breath from the last joke, Lewis shot back with a mischievous smile, "No, no, no, we know you can’t drive," turning the tables on Jack. The crowd burst into laughter as Jack, caught off guard but always game, attempted to defend himself. After a brief, humorous struggle, he finally conceded with a grin, "No, I can’t. I’m 26 and I don’t have a driver’s licence."

    This confession only fueled the laughter, and Lewis, not missing a beat, playfully teased, "How does a man not have a driving licence? Are you on the bus? What do you do?"

    With perfect comedic timing, Jack stared playfully at Lewis, setting up his punchline. "Lewis, I get picked up by the chicks," he quipped, drawing more laughter from the audience. Pausing just long enough for the laughter to settle, he added the kicker, "That chick being my mother."
