LEWIS HAMILTON left fans buzzing after sharing footage of himself racing round in an incredible £260k supercar.
The seven-time Formula 1 world champion drove a 1998 Nissan Skyline R34 around Tokyo in a late-night drive back in 2022.

That led to Hamilton being blasted for “speeding” and doing doughnuts in the £155,000 supercar.
However, the soon-to-be Ferrari star has recently been back at it again in Japan and he had no hesitation in sharing footage of it.
This time the 39-year-old Hamilton, who was today eliminated from Chinese Grand Prix qualifying in the first session, was tearing round in a Bayside Blue GT-R – a motor said to be worth just over a quarter of a million quid.
The cinematic piece shows him flying around the famous Tokyo highway system and close to the Shibuya Crossing.
Hamilton is a little more reserved this time around compared to two years ago.
Fans can see him perform a few skids and highway pulls while he captioned the footage, which was presumably shot around last month’s Japanese Grand Prix, with: “Just another night in Tokyo.”

And his legion of supporters were quick to claim that he had “dropped another classic”.
“These videos are hands down my favourite bits of content out of all the F1 drivers,” wrote another.
Sky Sports forced to apologise for Lewis Hamilton’s four-letter outburst live on TV after F1 star’s Chinese GP nightmare
A fellow fan said: “When the sequel hits harder than the . . . version originale.”
“Better than any movie I’ve seen this year,” wrote another.
While a fifth said: “This is sick.”
The seven-time world champion will start tomorrow’s race from 18th place.
He began the weekend positively by coming second in the Sprint to Max Verstappen as he said it was “the best result I’ve had in a long time.”
But disaster followed for the Mercedes star in qualifying for the main race after a costly mistake when going too wide around a corner on his final lap.

He therefore failed to improve on the time he had already set and finished in a disappointing 18th and his frustration go the better of him afterwards.
Hamilton swore in a live interview with Sky Sports when he said: “I just struggled – it is what it is.
“This morning, George [Russell] and I had very similar cars but this afternoon, we are trying to experiment still with car.
“So I went one way, a long way, and he went the other way, just to see if we could find anything. But yeah, it didn’t work.
“I’ll give it my best shot – 18th is pretty bad.
“When I was making the setup changes I was like ‘it can’t get any worse, surely’. And it did. S**t happens.”
Sky Sports broadcaster David Croft was forced to apologise for the bad language.
