Formula One, or F1, 2014 champion Lewis Hamilton received not one, but two, crazy carts from TV host Jonathan Ross on his show when he appeared his chat show aired on Dec. 20. Hamilton instantly drove that racing cart effortlessly and even raced with musician Ed Sheeran, who was also a guest on the show.

Hamilton quickly jumped on the cart and drove it around the studio. Sheeran also raced with him, making the other guests leaped from where they were sitting to avoid being hit by those two, who seemed to have enjoyed driving their new set of wheels.

Hamilton also shared a snaps and video of him driving the cart on Instagram. Hamilton has signed the Crazy Cart and will be putting it up for auction in an effort to raise money for the Text Santa Charity. The beneficiaries of the UK-based charity are the Alzheimer's Society, Guide Dogs, Marie Curie Cancer Care, Teenage Cancer Trust, Together for Short Lives, and WellChild. The Text Santa Charity has reportedly raised more than 5.5 million Pounds for aforementioned six charities up-to-date. A total of 20.5 million Pounds have been raised by the charitable institution since its inception four years ago.

In his appearance at the show, Hamilton, who clinched the victory at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix to win the 2014 World Title on Nov. 23, revealed that he doesn't really think about her girlfriend, former Pussycat Doll Nicole Scherzinger, that much when he competes and races. He said that a lot of things are going through his mind when he is racing on the track.

Hamilton went on and shared the how his family showed their support and showed up the morning before he raced. The 29-year-old two-time F1 world champion gives credit for his father and stepmother for helping him get to where he is at right now.

"My dad had four jobs at one stage just to keep me karting, I can never and only will understand it when I have a kid one day," Hamilton said. "I can't imagine the commitment my dad had and I'm just in awe and have so much appreciation." Hamilton is anticipated to be back on the track at the season-opening Australian Grand Prix in 2015.
