Washington, July 02: F1 star Lewis Hamilton has been voted ‘F1’s biggest playboy’

In the poll conducted by Nuts TV Sports News, the British driver took the top spot in three categories: Success with women, Champagne lifestyle and Sense of style.

The 23-year-old driver has been under the scanner for his relationships with Pussycat Dolls star Nicole Scherzinger, Naomi Campbell, Danni Minogue and Vivian Burkhardt, a former Miss World runner-up.

"Lewis is a real hero for our viewers,” Contactmusic quoted Joe Talbot, director of programming at Nuts TV as saying.

"He`s a star on the track, and after pulling a Pussycat Doll, obviously a star with the women too. No wonder he is one of the top sports idols of recent years,”

"Formula one has a long tradition of men who are really `living the dream` - so as long as he keeps up the hard work behind the wheel he shouldn`t be embarrassed that F1 fans think he is the ultimate playboy," he added.

However, in terms of driving ability Hamilton lost out to F1 champ Michael Schumacher and Ayrton Senna. Hamilton was at the third place.
