Lewis Hamilton reveals one favourite food he can't eat before British Grand Prix

Lewis Hamilton revealed he is on a strict diet ahead of the British Grand Prix so can't sample his favourite food.

Speaking at the launch of the House of Peroni Nastro Azzurro 0.0%, the Scuderia Ferrari HP F1 star told how his go-to cheat snack is pizza but when it comes to a full sit down meal he prefers Indian food with a cold beer. Though the British racing legend said he has to limit his carbs to make weight for his races this weekend at Silverstone. On the night, Sir Lewis also took part in a Q&A with Nick Grimshaw, offering a rare glimpse into his world.

Running from 3rd–5th July, The House of Peroni Nastro Azzurro 0.0% features a full schedule of immersive fan experiences.
