Lewis Hamilton makes shock appearance in Stormzy music video as he shows rapper incredible Mercedes F1 car
LEWIS HAMILTON has made a surprise appearance in rapper Stormzy’s latest music video.
The seven-time Formula 1 world champion, 38, was briefly seen alongside the musician for the track “Longevity Flow”.
In the footage, he is showing Stormzy a Mercedes F1 car outside what looks to be a huge country house.
And fans were left baffled by the unexplained cameo from the British racing driver.
Reacting on social media, one person said: “Lewis Hamilton has a cameo in Stormzy’s new song and it’s so random.”
Another added: “The ‘Longevity Flow’ video is such a massive flex. Lewis Hamilton is there giving Stormzy a private viewing of his Formula 1 car .”
And a third replied: “Shows up in Barcelona. Goes to Glastonbury. Appears in Stormzy’s latest track. Lewis Hamilton is NOT a real person lmao .”
The shock collaboration comes as Hamilton gears up for the British Grand Prix this weekend.
It has been more than 18 months since the Brit claimed the top step of the podium in an F1 race.
But he is an eight-time winner at Silverstone – three more than any other driver has managed in the history of the sport.

Add to that the fact he has won seven of the last nine British Grands Prix.
However, Red Bull have clinched each of the eight races in 2023 – with reigning world champion Max Verstappen claiming six of them.
The Dutchman, 25, boasts 195 points, meaning he is 69 ahead of team-mate Sergio Perez in the drivers’ standings.
Hamilton has picked up 102 points, leaving him fourth in the championship, 15 behind Fernando Alonso but 37 clear of fellow Mercedes man George Russell.
