Lewis Hamilton ran 300 metres with the Olympic torch in Luton just three hours after he was pictured walking out of a nightclub. It seems like the Grand Prix racer came straight out of a party before running with the torch.
Originally, Hamilton was supposed to run with the torch in Stevenage, Herts, his hometown, but had to miss it due to a Grand Prix race. His run was then scheduled, which gave him a few hours after the race to rest before the run. He didn’t bother to rest, it seems, as he went straight to a dinner date at Zuma with teammate Jenson Button and his girlfriend as well as a curly-haired brunette acquaintance for himself. His girlfriend, Nicole Scherzinger, is in Mexico.
A few hours after, at around 10:00 PM, he was spotted leaving the restaurant. At around 4:00 AM, he was again spotted leaving an establishment, this time, a club.
Less than three hours after, Lewis was again spotted, this time running with the Olympic torch. Fortunately, the athlete still had enough energy to make it 300 metres.
His performance in the Grand Prix race at Silverstone wasn’t stellar as he ranked only eighth while teammate Jenson Button ranked tenth.
