A blindingly fast Englishman in New York

Formula 1's contingent of drivers split left and right after the US Grand Prix, with some folk heading east while others went west.

Lewis Hamilton left Austin and took off towards the north-east, landing in New York, his second home away from home.

The seven-time world champion has always been a big fan of the Big Apple and its inspiring diversity and vibe.

As a man who lives his life in the fast lane, Hamilton blends in seamlessly into NYC's fast-paced street life.

However, you won't see him walking down Fifth Avenue, a walking cane by his side.

But if "manners maketh man" as someone said
He's the hero of the day
It takes a man to suffer ignorance and smile
Be yourself no matter what they say<

For he's an Englishman in New York.
