F1 meets film — and a quiet moment with the man at the helm.

From kart tracks and paddocks to studio presenting with F1 Kids, this journey has taken me to some unexpected places.

After my own race podium on Sunday, it was straight to the F1: The Movie premiere — where racing and storytelling came together in a whole new way.

Amazing to see the sport opened up to an even wider set of fans, who’ll hopefully find their own way into F1. That’s what F1 Kids set out to do too — and now we’re back for back-to-back Grand Prix weekends at Austria and Silverstone, continuing that mission.

Grateful for the continuing support from Stefano Domenicali — and thanks to Apple and Warner Bros. for bringing the sport to the big screen in such a bold way.

Part 3: Behind the wheel of greatness 🏎️ Sitting in Lewis Hamilton’s F1 car was a surreal experience—feeling the design, the precision, and the history that this machine represents. Today, as Lewis takes on his final race with Mercedes, it’s the end of an incredible era. This partnership has set new standards in F1, leaving a legacy of dominance, innovation, and pure passion.

Honoured to have a glimpse into what it’s like to be in the seat of a legend as it helps focus me and kids like me inojr own journeys. Here’s to Lewis, Mercedes, and the journey they’ve shared. 🏁

Join me and the F1Kids as we are live today for the season finale.

What a Sprint race in Singapore! 🇸🇬🏁

A wet start, George Russell crashing out of the lead on the opening lap, and plenty to talk about!

A little behind the scenes from the @F1 commentary booth as it all unfolded live. 🎙️

Raced at Whilton last weekend great weather and a really grippy track.

Managed a solid P6 in quali, and up to P3 within two corners in Heat 1 but got caught up and sent into an airborne 360°, bending the axle. That was the end of that heat.

A red flag at the very next corner brought things to a halt for a while. I hope everyone involved is recovering well.

The team @mrowe5353 did an amazing job to get the kart ready for Heat 2. With no chance to dial in the setup fully, the aim was just to maintain position.

That left us starting P19 for the final. Made up places to P10 and catching before rear contact broke the bumper, forcing us to retire the kart.

Back at Whilton Mill again this weekend for the start of the British Kart Championships 🏁
