As per pitpass.com, Hamilton said, “…you know, my dad would have given everything to be a racing driver when he was in his younger days. But coming from humble beginnings and just with the dream of creating a better opportunity for his kids than he had and I’m forever grateful for my dad, you know.”
Why is Lewis Hamilton Not Very Popular Among the British F1 Fans?
“The journey that we’ve been on, the struggles that we had, and to be in here and our first Grand Prix win in 2007, looking down at him, knowing everything he did, to raise money and to… literally almost selling the shirt off his back to keep us racing,” said Hamilton.
It was really nice to see Hamilton happy for the first time in a very long time. It was the second podium of the season and will give him immense confidence.
Can Lewis Hamilton win the British GP once again?
