I hate driving fast: Chris Hemsworth

London: Actor Chris Hemsworth says he came out of his comfort zone playing motor racing ace James Hunt in new movie ‘Rush’.

The Australian heart-throb, who steps into the Formula 1 legend`s shoes in the film, said he hates travelling at speed and even urges his wife, Spanish actress Elsa Pataky, to slow down when she is at the wheel, reported Contactmusic. "(Our car) has a babyseat and surfboard in the back, it`s a pretty mellow thing. I go, `Slow down, what`s the rush, there`s a red light.` She says, `Shut up, when did you become a driving instructor?`" he said. ‘Rush’ is the story of Hunt`s track battles with his arch rival Niki Lauda in their 1970s heyday.
