Sebastian Vettel is diversifying his resume by becoming the
Director of Performance for
Infiniti, and it also sounds like his rival
Lewis Hamilton is also dabbling in some extracurriculars. According to
Yahoo!, the 28-year-old Hamilton has apparently been stealing away time in a recording studio to record his own pop music album over the last year. The report, which quotes singer/songwriter Angel, indicates that Hamilton might have a second career waiting for him after racing.
So far, Hamilton and Angel have written about 12 songs across various music genres, and another interesting element to his involvement in the music industry is that his girlfriend, Nicole Scherzinger (above), is the lead singer for the Pussycat Dolls as well as a former judge for the reality singing contest,
X-Factor. For those who are interested, it doesn't sound like he's ready to put out an album just yet. For the moment, it appears Hamilton's duties in Austin, Texas will be limited to lapping the
Circuit of the Americas rather than the performing on the local music scene.
Us? We're just hoping for an eventual duet with fellow F1 racer and musical hopeful
