F1 fans absolutely baffled as Hollywood star sings national anthem ‘like Elvis’ appeared on www.the-sun.com by Jack Figg.
ACTOR Damian Lewis had Formula One fans baffled as he sang the national anthem ahead of the Grand Prix at Silverstone in the style of Elvis Presley.
The Hollywood star belted out God Save the King alongside a saxophonist but the performance left viewers totally confused.

One said: “Sorry but that was not just awful it was embarrassing.”
Another agreed: “What is more worrying is that at no point did anyone involved with organising this, or close to Damian Lewis, step in to prevent this tragedy.”
One joked: “Don’t give up the day job.”
Another asked: “Who let this happen?”
Lewis was dressed head-to-toe in black and also wore dark glasses for the performance.
He delivered the anthem in a slow, crooning style much to the amusement of many viewers.
The actor, known for roles in Homeland, Band of Brothers and Billions, has his own band and recently penned his first album.
Despite the dodgy singing, British pair Lewis Hamilton and Lando Norris did their best to put on a show for the 160,000 crammed into Silverstone.
The two traded blows for the title of being named best of the runners’ up as once again Max Verstappen proved too strong.
Verstappen took the chequered flag for the eighth time in 10 races – and the sixth time in a row. Norris was second and Hamilton third.
Norris, 23, said: “It is pretty insane! None of this would be possible without the team and they did an amazing job.
“I managed to hold off Lewis. I tried to hold on to Max for as long as possible…but I don’t care, P2 is all good. The whole in-lap I was trying to wave to everyone.”
Hamilton, 38, who started seventh and was quizzed about his recover, added: “The crowd did it!
“Silverstone put on an amazing show. I felt the energy and the support and congratulations to Lando and McLaren.
“As a team, we know we are not that far away and we can keep pushing.”
