Formula One star Lewis Hamilton swapped his multi-million pound, 230mph McLaren to drive a modest family car for BBC Two's Top Gear show on Sunday.
Hamilton got behind the wheel of a Suzuki Liana and took on the mark of Top Gear's resident driver The Stig.
The 22-year-old's lap was 0.3 seconds behind The Stig's blistering best of one minute 44.4 seconds and also behind former F1 world champion Nigel Mansell.
However, Hamilton's lap came in wet conditions, unlike the other two.

Who is The Stig?
There's some good speculation about who this year's Stig is at this link. No chance it's Damon Hill - he's got far too much money to bother.

Here's the clip of Hamilton on Top Gear.
I love the way he sings to himself as he's going round. Coolest young sportsman around.
