Let’s step away from the Abu Dhabi GP weekend for a minute and talk about F1’s Las Vegas outing. Not the one scheduled in 2023, but the one where Lewis Hamilton took to the track to do some doughnuts. It’s the same weekend when Hamilton and Co. spoke to the fans and the Brit even met Daniel Mac.

Daniel Mac, or as most know him by his social media alias ItsDanielMac, is a content creator. The American is a TikTok sensation popularly known for his “What do you do for a living” concept videos. The American vlogger goes around asking people what they do for a living after spotting them in luxurious cars, revealing the car’s price.

Apart from millions of followers on various social media platforms, the 24-year-old has also amassed an estimated net worth of $2.8 million. Daniel Mac even got the opportunity to ask the age-old question to Hamilton during his trip to Vegas.

When asked, “Lewis, what do you do for a living?” Hamilton hilariously replied, “I’m actually a professional dancer. But I’m a part-time racer, as well.”

It is believable, given the many talents of Hamilton. The content creator played along but did not ask Hamilton to “bust ’em (moves) out” as he had to address a larger group of fans as well.
