World champion Lewis Hamilton says he crashed his $2 million dollar super car in the middle of the night in Monaco because “heavy partying” left him tired. The Brit revealed he hit a stationary car in his home town and delayed his flight to the Brazilian Grand Prix after feeling run down.

“It was a result of heavy partying and not much rest for 10 days. I am a bit run down. I have been non-stop and trying to fit training in at the same time and not getting a lot of sleep.”
Cops responded to the scene and Hamilton was given a breathalyzer but reportedly passed.
Hamilton later went to Instagram to issue a statement confirming the crash and adding, “Nobody was hurt, which is the most important thing.”
“But the car was obviously damaged and I made very light contact with a stationary vehicle. Talking with the team and my doctor, we decided together that it was best for me to rest at home.”
“I feel we all must take responsibility for our actions. Mistakes happen to us all but what’s important is that we learn from them and grow.”
I’m sure he has insurance but damn!
