Hamilton Christmas party antics revealed at McLaren

Whilst Hamilton will be hoping for a record-breaking eighth world title at Ferrari, his move still remains risky, a scenario the champion is used to after his move to Mercedes in 2013.

The Brit only had one world championship to his name when he previously left McLaren, with figures in the paddock pessimistic that Hamilton could achieve further success at Mercedes, a story that has become legendary since his move.

However, one figure from McLaren has recently recounted a different story about Hamilton, regarding an eventful Christmas party in 2008.

Speaking to Casino Uden Rofus, former McLaren mechanic Marc Priestley, revealed: "Hamilton brought Scherzinger to a McLaren Christmas party in 2008 - we took over a nightclub."

"Fernando Alonso did not turn up to our Christmas parties, as you can imagine with how it ended with McLaren.

"Lewis Hamilton can be great at the parties. I remember when he won his first world championship in 2008, he brought his girlfriend at the time, Nicole Scherzinger.

“Hamilton took over the decks at a nightclub we were at and was DJing most of the night. Scherzinger got onto the mic and started singing, with Hamilton joining in, I've seen all sides of him!"
