Lewis Hamilton proved he’s a true competitor when he went ‘full send’ during an interview on the popular internet show, Hot Ones.

The seven-time Formula 1 world champion winced as he began sweating and tearing up while downing a series of ultra-spicy wings throughout the video.

Hamilton revealed he had previously cancelled on the Hot Ones team ‘several times’ because he was nervous about the infamous spice challenge.

‘A part of it was scheduling [conflicts] but most of it was like, “I don’t know if I can do it,” he admitted.

‘Even on the way here I was honestly like, “how can I get out of this?”‘
