Lewis Hamilton has gone viral on TikTok after posting hilarious onboard footage of the chaotic Miami lego race, which took place ahead of the Miami Grand Prix.  For the 20 drivers it was an unforgettable moment at the Miami International Autodrome, with the parade lap having been completed in life-size lego replicas of their F1 cars.  Each team had one car, with one driver having driven the remarkable machine, whilst the other sat in the back and recorded the chaos unfolding around them.  Remarkably, each car was been created by a team of 26 designers, engineers and builders, over 22,000 hours.  At a near 1:1 in scale, the cars comprised 400,000 bricks, weighing 1,000kg - more than a real F1 car - reaching speeds of 20 km/h and actual Pirelli tyres. It was potentially the slowest lap in the history of the circuit, but by far the funniest! Hamilton posted a video of the lego race to TikTok, which was filled with uncontrollable laughter and crashes. In just 17 hours, the video had racked up 5.6 million views, 1.2 million likes, 5,249 comments and 101.7k bookmarks.
