After Admitting to Ditch Mercedes for Top Gun 3 Alongside Tom Cruise, Lewis Hamilton Issues Conflicting Statement About His Documentary With Apple

Lewis Hamilton acts as the strongest bond we in the F1 world share with Hollywood. Apart from serving us with some great drives in his 16-year-long career, the man serves us with the best crossovers in the entertainment world. And while we thought it was only a matter of time till we saw the 7x champion on the big screen, the Mercedes driver has given an update.
Hamilton has been involved in multiple Hollywood projects, including the new Brad Pitt movie he’ll produce. But the biggest crossover was into the Top Gun series. Lewis Hamilton missed being a part of the second issue of the movie series and had yesterday said that history won’t repeat itself. He stated he’d even miss a race to be a part of the filming. However, a few hours later, giving an update on his Apple documentary, he took a U-turn from that statement.

As quoted by the Push Lap, he said, “I haven’t really announced it, but yeah—I’m producing a documentary along with Apple. It feels strange having a camera follow me around, but it’s about my life, my career, and my journey to where I am now with the hope really to do what Ayrton Senna’s documentary did for me as a kid.”

He added, “Maybe we can do that for the next young kid, coming home from school dreaming of something. Hopefully, they’ll be able to watch this and be inspired to do something for themselves.”
While this update from the entertainment world made our heads turn, another from on-track developments may do the same as well.

Mercedes was set to roll out a new concept and a massive upgrade package in Imola. However, due to the unfortunate floods, it couldn’t happen. And while we did get a glimpse of the package in Monaco, we are not sure what the new upgrades can do and Lewis isn’t too hopeful either.

He said, “Well, it’s not the step forward that we were hoping for. The true step forward we’re hoping for is, there’s been around a one-second delta [to Red Bull] in race trim, for example. We haven’t covered that with this step, but it is a step in the right direction. What I felt last weekend was I felt a little bit more confident in the car, more ability to be able to commit to the corner. So, I’m hoping that at this track, that’s the same, but hopefully better.”
