Kamala Harris puts faith in Hamilton

Now, US election hopeful Kamala Harris has revealed she is a fan of the 39-year-old, who originates from Stevenage.

Speaking to Sirius XM, Harris revealed that her and her family love F1, with a particular British driver gaining yet more celebrity support.

"We love it, our whole family does," she said.

"Actually, I haven't been able to watch it a lot recently because I am campaigning because also depending on where they're driving, the time of day, you gotta wake up."

When asked who her favourite driver was, Harris defiantly responded: "Lewis Hamilton of course. He's leaving Mercedes.

"You should watch it," she said to the host. "Once you start, you should see it, you might get hooked."
