Nicole Scherzinger's racer boyfriend Lewis Hamilton has had his luxury car impounded by Australian police after he was pulled over for reckless driving.
 
The Formula 1 star found himself in trouble with authorities in Victoria on Friday night (26Mar10) - just hours after he set the fastest qualifying time for the Australian Grand Prix at 1 minute, 26.801 seconds - when he was caught performing a "burnout with smoking tyres and a fishtail" metres away from a police van.
 
It has been reported that his Mercedes-Benz was impounded and the 25 year old will face a charge by summons with improper use of a vehicle.
 
Policeman Scott Woodford tells the newspaper, "It would have been fair to say he was fairly disappointed." Hamilton has now apologised for his actions, admitting he made a "silly mistake".
 
He says, "This evening, I was driving in an over-exuberant manner and, as a result, was stopped by the police. What I did was silly, and I want to apologise for it."
 
Hamilton previously had his vehicle taken away by cops in France in 2007 after he was caught speeding.
