Greatest active race car driver in the world. Lewis Hamilton. White mom, Black dad, British.

I am a race fan.

This guy is going to probably go down as one of the greatest ever.

Just watched him win Monza, Italy, and everybody else was way behind him

I agree Lewis Hamilton is undoubtedly one of the greatest drivers of all time. His hero and inspiration is Ayrton Senna.

My husband is an F1 guy. We (HE) hosted a UAE watch party last race of the season. Not uncommon to wake up on a Sunday morning to headache bunch of guys from the old country hollering Hamiton with a thick accent.
