Lewis Hamilton Edges Teammate Heikki Kovalainen for the “Win”

By Marc • July 2, 2009

The F1 World Champion takes on teammate Heikki Kovalainen in this viral video. And the duo compete against each other - in taxis.

Hamilton and Kovalainen are waiting in the cab office when Barry from EastEnders sends them out to pick up a customer.

And Hamilton just edges past the Finn to take the checkered flag in dramatic style.

You have to be quick to notice that his “boss” is McLaren CEO, Martin Whitmarsh.

I’m thinkin’ Lewis should trade his MP4/24 in for one of these cabs, at least then he could claim a win this year.
