The British driver is also involved in Brad Pitt’s upcoming F1 film, with Hamilton as executive producer to ensure the film accurately represents the world of Formula 1.
In an interview with GQ, Hamilton highlighted the importance of finding passions, such as fashion and film, outside of F1.
“When I first got into Formula 1, it was wake up, train, racing-racing-racing-racing, nothing else," he said.
"There’s no space for anything else. But what I realised is that just working all the time doesn’t bring you happiness, and you need to find a balance in life, and I found out that I was actually quite unhappy.”
"You have to find something else that can soothe you, can keep your mind going.”
