Ahead of this weekend's Formula 1 Las Vegas Grand Prix, Epic Games has announced the next character to join their icon series - Sir Lewis Hamilton. The icon series is a special rarity of cosmetics reserved for celebrities, artists, and influencers, and Hamilton, alongside his dog Roscoe, are the latest to join the roster.
Now, let's ask the real questions:
- Will Bono find him some new tyres at Junk Junction already?
- Will you be able to match Lewis' seven World Driver's Championship titles with your own seven Victory Royales?
- Does Hamilton thank the engineers back at the Flush Factory?
- What are his lap times around the desert race track above Paradise Palms?
Lewis Hamilton will be available in Fortnite on this Friday, November 17 at 7 PM Eastern. Pricing is not yet confirmed.
