Lewis Hamilton has seemingly backtracked on comments about Nicole Scherzinger
The racing car driver took to his Twitter page last night to clear up his earlier comments, in which he admitted motors were “his babies”.
The 31-year-old, who split from the hitmaker last year, previously told Top Gear magazine: “I used to say, when I had a girlfriend, ‘I’m taking one of the girls out, so you can come if you want, but you come second when it comes to the cars.'”
However, Lewis appeared to have had a change of heart, tweeting his 3.66 million followers last night: “Cars were NEVER even a close 2nd!!!”
The Brit went on to tell the publication that his success on the track had acted as “a bandage” to his heartache.
