Watch Formula One world champion Lewis Hamilton pilot a fighter jet as he embarked on flight training used by astronauts.
The seven-time F1 world champion and IWC brand ambassador appeared blown away by the experience, describing it as “wicked”.
The same training is used to prepare the crews of the Inspiration 4 and Polaris Dawn commercial human spaceflight missions.
During the training day, the 39-year-old was accompanied by students from Dibia DREAM, a non-profit organisation fostering STEM education.
In a short movie, produced by IWC Schaffhausen, Hamilton can be seen surfing through the clouds.
