In order to participate, Vodafone customers have the option of either answering questions through a SMS based competition or by posting the fastest time in an online competition being run on the Vodafone India website.

In the SMS competition, all customers needs to do is SMS LEWIS to 56565 (toll free) and answer five simple Formula 1 related questions. Six winners will be picked from Mumbai, Delhi, Hyderabad, Kolkata, Bangalore, Chennai and two from rest of India, respectively.

Customers can also participate in an online racing Game Hometown GP on www.vodafone.in to win a hot lap with Lewis giving them a full racing experience.

Sharing his excitement on his upcoming visit to Chennai, India, Lewis Hamilton said, “I would like to thank Vodafone for inviting me to India for the third consecutive year, as I have always enjoyed the warmth and hospitality extended to me in my last two visits to Mumbai and Delhi, respectively. It feels great to be part of an event in a country which is extremely passionate about motor sports and am looking forward to meeting my fans and race at the track in Chennai.”
