Hamilton’s background as a thrill-seeker, coupled with his experience driving Formula One cars at speeds exceeding 200 miles per hour, makes him a prime candidate for a SpaceX flight. The racing star frequently posts videos of himself engaging in high-adrenaline activities like water sports and skydiving and has previously expressed his interest in space.
