Lewis Hamilton Biography

The United Kingdom’s Hertfordshire region welcomed Lewis Carl Davidson on January 7, 1985. Lewis, a mulatto, received the vivid features of his race from his parents, Anthony Hamilton, a dark-skinned native of Grenada, and Carmen Larbalestir, an Englishwoman.

Carmen and Anthony separated when the boy was two years old. Lewis chose to remain with his mother. Carmen was remarried, relocated to London, and met Nicole and Samantha, her half-sisters, who would grow up to be Nicole’s stepdaughters. Carmen would eventually drive a race car. Hamilton continued to speak with his father despite the relocation, which had an impact on his future and career choice.

Lewis’ father, who did not value the heir’s soul, welcomed him back to Hertfordshire when he was 12 years old. So the youngster once more had new relatives: his stepmother Linda and his younger, cerebral palsy-affected half-brother Nicholas. Lewis was given a remote-controlled toy car when he was just 5 years old, and a year later he finished second in the “adult” competition for radio-controlled model owners.

The father seriously thought about the future of his son, and in the same year, Lewis became the owner of the cart, a used but expensive company manager for a salary. The cards were bought with one condition: to study well at school, and Hamilton tried his best. As a teenager, Lewis became interested in football, and if it were not for karting, he would certainly have followed this sports path.

Anthony spent all of his free time working out and supporting Lewis’ development because he recognized the potential for a great racer in his son. He quit his job, applied for a contractor position with a construction firm, and worked three jobs simultaneously to pay for his son’s expensive hobby, as well as for medicine and care for his youngest child, who was ill.

Lewis Hamilton Career

At age 8, Lewis won the junior karting championship and has since won one victory after another. At the age of 10, after another triumph, the boy plucked up the courage to ask for an autograph from Ron Dennis, the chief of the McLaren team in Formula 1 races, at the same time declaring that he would soon drive his car. Dennis listened to the arrogant child with a smile, then signed and said that they would certainly meet in 9 years. And so it happened. 

At the age of 12, Hamilton won an award in the Junior Yamaha competition series, for which Lewis was honored with participation in a special program to support young McLaren Mercedes riders. This was followed by participation and victories in the Intercontinental A, Formula A, and Formula Super A series.

Lewis reconnected with Ron Dennis in 1998 and earned a spot in the McLaren squad. Three years later, he had the good fortune to race in Michael Schumacher’s company in karting contests, earning the champion’s seal of approval.

Despite his youth, Hamilton is expected to compete in the storied Formula 1 in the near future, according to Schumacher. Lewis amassed a large number of victories in events of all categories and titles between 2001 and 2007.

“Formula 1”

In 2007, Hamilton made his Formula 1 debut with the McLaren Mercedes team. The Spaniard, Fernando Alonso, a more experienced and mature rider, acted as a partner. For some time, the men worked together, but soon the ambitious Lewis surpassed his colleague, which caused conflicts between the pilots. The controversy turned into an occasion for numerous attacks on Hamilton by Alonso fans, who wore outright racist overtones. Fernando openly condemned the actions of his fans, but the bitter rivalry between the top athletes remained.

Hamilton’s biography as a Formula 1 car pilot is full of bright victories and unexpected twists and turns. Pen sharks believe that, to some extent, Lewis himself provokes conflicts with other racing drivers and team members, not disdaining forbidden tricks. In contrast to the tense relationship with Fernando Alonso, Hamilton had a strong friendship with Nico Rosberg, although the two Mercedes team pilots later became the closest rivals in the fight for the championship title. In 2016, Rosberg finally beat Lewis on points.

After unconditional victories in 2008, 2014, 2015, 2017, 2018, 2019, and 2020, Hamilton became a seven-time world champion. Moreover, with his 92nd victory at the Grand Prix in Portugal, Lewis broke Schumacher’s record. Information appeared in the press that after a successful 2020 season, Hamilton would retire. But Lewis told fans and critics that he didn’t end his career. And 2021 started well for the athlete. At the Grand Prix in Bahrain, Lewis Hamilton won, beating Max Verstappen.

Personal Life

The sportsman met Nicole Scherzinger, a stunning singer, between 2007 and 2015; they even had plans to start a family, but things didn’t work out. For a while, Lewis and the girl’s photos together graced tabloid covers as well as the pages of lovers on Twitter and Instagram (the social network is banned in the Russian Federation; it belongs to the Meta corporation, which is recognized as extremist in the Russian Federation). Nicole never married Hamilton. Celebrities ultimately ended their relationship after several splits and reunifications.

After breaking up with Scherzinger, the racer dated top model of Hungarian origin, Barbara Palvin, for some time, then Lewis was seen in the company of Rihanna. Hamilton was credited with novels featuring Gigi Hadid, Kendall Jenner, Irina Shayk, Vika Odintsova, and other beauties. In early 2017, the Formula-1 star got into the camera lens along with Sofia Richie, the 18-year-old daughter of Lionel Richie. The couple met in a restaurant in Beverly Hills, trying not to attract the attention of the public and the ubiquitous journalists.

Later, the paparazzi began to suspect that Hamilton had gotten a wife secretly from the public. The alleged lover of the racer was seen by the media in New Zealand, Angela Cullen. In many “random” shots, the petite blonde turned out to be close to Lewis. But, as it turned out, fragile-looking Angela has strong hands and works as an athlete’s physiotherapist.

Today, the main place in the personal life of the British citizen is occupied by an English bulldog named Roscoe. The dog has an Instagram account dedicated to another pet of the same breed, Koko. The pet died of old age in the summer of 2020.
