For the past few days, Lewis Hamilton has been at the heart of a controversy. Despite the end of the season, the British driver is talking about him following a video posted on his social networks at the wheel of a Nissan GT-R R34.
Electro music, drifts, bright lights, in one of his latest Instagram posts, Lewis Hamilton shows he had a blast over the weekend of Japanese Grand Prix. Driving a Nissan GT-R R34 legendary, the Mercedes driver transformed into Dom’ Toretto for a few moments.
Only here, since the controversy swells about this video. And especially after the response of a Japanese rental company. Omoshiro Rent-a-Car actually took the liberty of specifying that, contrary to what had been said, the Nissan had not been loaned to him by a friend.
No, it would be a rental car and seeing it used for such purposes did not really please its owners.
This is a car from Omoshiro Rent-A-Car, but it was not taken with permission from our company. Such driving is strictly prohibited.

Sir Lewis Hamilton a écrit : “I only like to drive on the circuits, but sometimes I make exceptions”the rental company replied: “This car was not taken with permission from our company. Such conduct is strictly prohibited. »
So certainly, the maneuvers are daring and very far from a classic driving, but in truth, no risks really seem to have been taken in this video. The sequences in the city are accelerated and the rights parts were shot in closed places.
Whatever, this story does not seem to be over yet. For his part, the Mercedes driver has not yet wished to enter into the debate.
