A hilarious moment unfolded at the Singapore Grand Prix when Martin Brundle, a renowned Formula 1 commentator, accidentally interviewed Lewis Capaldi’s brother instead of the singer himself. The incident occurred during Brundle’s “Grid Walk” segment on Sky Sports, where he was interviewing various celebrities and F1 drivers. Brundle mistook Anthony Capaldi, Lewis’s brother, for the “Someone You Loved” hitmaker and engaged in conversation before realizing the mistake.
The awkwardness peaked when Lewis Capaldi approached Brundle, extending his hand for a greeting. Brundle, still oblivious to the mix-up, blanked Capaldi for a handshake. The singer couldn’t help but laugh at the situation, jokingly shaking his own hand while looking at the camera. The clip quickly went viral on social media, with fans poking fun at Brundle’s mistake.
