Asked to “share a funny story of the first time you’ve been mistaken for someone else” during a Twitter Q&A session, Roger Federer confessed a hilarious story involving someone who thought he was Rafael Nadal. “Happened the other day at the Formula 1.
A guy asked “Can i have a picture with you Mr Nadal?”. I told him I wasn’t Mr Nadal. He apologized and left without taking a picture,” Roger Federer wrote on Twitter alongside a laughing emoji.

At the start of May, Roger Federer attended the Miami Formula 1 Grand Prix, where he took photos with many stars, including tennis stars like Serena and Venus Williams, and famous singers like the Jonas Brothers.

But, Federer didn’t hit the Miami Grand Prix just to socialize. He is actually a fan of Formula 1. During an interview for Sky Spoer, the Swiss Maestro said: “This is my third time, yes.
I was in Abu Dhabi, the big race with Hamilton and Nico Rosberg at the time, and then I did qualifying in Barcelona on last year, which I really enjoyed. He’s been a little more relaxed away from the big race then now here, so it’s a lot of fun to be back, finally having some time to do things like that as well.”
