The 6-time World Champion took to Twitter and posted a picture of himself, celebrating a Karting victory with his family. The tweet also had a beautiful note accompanying it.
The first part of which was a touching tribute to his family. The tweet read, “This picture brings me so much happiness. This is when I was 15, fighting for the European and world karting championships in Italy.
“So many of you see the success today perhaps without the knowledge of how I got there. The proud black man to the left, my father, worked 4 jobs to keep me racing in the early stages. We didn’t always have the best equipment but we did it as a family.
“My two beautiful mothers in this photo, they held us together through the tough times. Behind every successful man is a strong beautiful woman, well I had two.
“The little guy, my incredible brother, inspired me and inspires so many today. See, we never gave up no matter what was thrown at us. There’s not a day that goes by I don’t forget where I’ve come from and who/what I’m fighting for.”
