Lando’s 58-year-old motor made an unplanned pit stop in the road in Monaco
Lando was joined for the Saturday evening drive by Portuguese lingerie model partner Margarida Corceiro.
The 21-year-old brunette brushed off the interruption and flashed a smile from the passenger seat after the car fired up again.
A witness told The Sun: “He turned out into the road, the engine started whirring and just shut off, so he had to turn it off.
“He shouted over to a police officer, who asked four or five lads to help him push the car so it could get a running start.
“He was stopped for about five minutes and took the whole thing in his stride.
“Every enthusiast knows that the breakdowns are just part of owning a classic car.
“The guys were happy to help as they were huge fans, got to have a look at the car, and even had a laugh at Lando’s expense.
“They can now say they’ve been part of an F1 pit crew.”
