Product description
Seven time world champion, over one hundred pole positions, and more than two hundred podium finishes in Formula 1: Lewis Hamilton is a living legend.
Not just a champion, but a man who has proven capable of coming back stronger after every setback, fully aware of his talent and abilities. He is a point of reference for many, an icon for millions, and an idol for young people on the margins, just as he once was as a child.
From the teachings of his grandfather, who immigrated to England from the Caribbean in the 1950s and was a victim of rampant racism, to his father Anthony, who sacrificed everything to give Lewis the space to nurture his talent; from the deep bond with his brother Nic to the divorce of his parents; from success in lower level competitions to his glorious debut in Formula 1, all the way to worldwide fame, gossip about his private life, and his knighthood from Queen Elizabeth: Frank Worrall weaves together testimonies and personal stories, race day comments, interviews, and in-depth analysis to tell the extraordinary life of the greatest driver to ever exist.
Reading his biography is an incredible journey through the life of a man who has reached and surpassed his own idols, broken every record, and changed the rules of the game, always keeping his focus not on the finish line, but just beyond it.
