Lewis, in response, spoke words of kindness with respect to the great Tom Brady as well. When asked about his own 2021 ambitions and if he’s aiming for an 8th F1 title, Hamilton responded, “Of course, I’ll have to follow Tom.”

Brady and the Buccaneers are hoping to successfully defend their Super Bowl title in 2021. They have managed to retain most of their core squad from last season, which hints at a successful attempt at running it back. Negotiations are being conducted with the likes of WR Antonio Brown and RB Leonard Fournette to further bolster their claim to the throne.
