Will Smith was nursing a sore voice as he declared his support for Lewis Hamilton when collared by Martin Brundle.
Brundle regularly gets a chance to chat with megastars when he embarks upon his traditional pre-race grid walk on a Sunday. Ahead of the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix he spoke with Oscar-winning actor Smith, who had only one man he wanted to talk about in a brief interview.
"I'm team Lewis!" he declared, when Brundle put the microphone under his nose. "That's my guy, that's my guy." He went on to explain why he sounded a little hoarse while he was speaking.
Smith added: "I was out last night so I lost my voice a little bit. But I'm always team Lewis." Brundle went on to ask if Smith was planning on being part of the new Formula 1 movie which is currently in production.
The actor replied: "I don't know, I haven't been asked yet but I would love to. I may have to work on this gut though! It doesn't fit in the car too well."
