Hi Lewis You are in my mind a 8 + times World Champion. We all Know what happened. But all is not lost, That’s water under the bridge. What you need to do now is flex where you are best at. You have a bigger brain than than these other cats, Your ratio of brain to body is a lot higher than all of them. So….What you need to do is to spend more time Meditating than all of them. Spend more time visualizing yourself winning ALL these races to come. Do it until it can’t be any other way. You are far more cerebral than all these cats. Your rightful place is to be more aloof. More Winful. Of the highest Esteem. After all, you have more world Championships than all of them. Get your Belief system and Super confidence back, and like magic you will have the best car again……Cheers…
Dear Sir Lewis,
I am a fan of yours because of your determination, advocacy for inclusion, and your determination to be the best you can be while encouraging your team to meet your passion.
I also live in Colorado – yea, beautiful place which we explore with our MB Sprinter based RV.
Last year I saw a film clip by one of the Red Bull team engineers stating that Honda has made a breakthrough with the engine turbo charger. Once he realized what he was saying he quickly changed subjects. Given how all the teams are lagging the Red Bull for the last two years, it appears to me that no one else has figured this out. One clue I have noticed is the relatively low rpm of the Honda engine accompanied by a much more base engine tone. This appears to be more noticeable at low speeds when exiting corners. Also their turbo seems to be louder and have a slightly higher pitch than other engines.
I hope you and the rest of the team solve the issues that stand in the way of returning to the best team in F1.
Regards,
Tim Cook
Dear Mr. Hamilton,
I am an activist for European Citizens Initiative called “End The Slaughter Age” (https://www.endthesaughterage.eu) born to shift traditional livestock funds to plant alternatives and cellular agriculture.
This would not only save billions of animal lives, but it will save the planet from global warming and prevent future pandemics.
Knowing your care for environment and animals,
I am writing to you for our work on cultured meat and I was wondering if you could somehow give us an endorsement or if you would like to help us in any way, mostly in terms of visibilty.
We are collecting signatures for :
1 – Exclude livestock farming from list of activities eligible for agricultural subsidies and include ethical and environmentally friendly alternatives, such as cellular agriculture and plant proteins.
2 – Incentives for the production and sale of plant-based products and those made using cellular agriculture.
We are now around 560.000 signatures.
Reaching 1.000.000 signatures within 06/05/2023, European Commission will discuss the proposal. We also need a 7 countries quorum, now we have in 6.
For any additional information, do not hesitate to contact us
Best regards

Hi Lewis, Hope you are well. We are looking at golf & residential development next to a Big 5 Game Reserve in Mkuze, South Africa. I am also looking to design a Race track in the area. It will be great to have a legend like you be get involved in South Africa and the upliftment of the communities here in Mkuze.
Hello Lewis and his team… I’m finishing my PhD… it’s hard, like really hard. I know you Lewis are fighting against real issues, such as racism or social justice, but… I just want to tell you that in my personal fight, you have been a beacon of perseverance, resilience, and inspiration. Even if you are doing all these incredible things for a better planet, those actions can inspire people for the silliest things, like mine. I just love you Lewis Hamilton, keep going with your incredible journey! you are the best!
Hi Lewis
My name is Caleb Scheffey and formula 1 racing as a whole probably hears this a lot but I will start off with wishing you good luck this season I saw how you did at Australia and I want to congratulate you at making second place when you didn’t expect it.I hope Mercedes can improve upon the W14 that way you can get back to demolishing Verstappen. Now to get to the point I’m not sure this is the right place to ask something as I don’t know if you can answer questions but I’m aware this is a very high ask but I’m 13 years old and my family wouldn’t have enough money for it but I was hoping that you could possibly somehow help pay for me to work my way up to formula 1 because that is my dream though I feel like I’m too late to have a standing chance for formula one because I don’t participate in karting and have never. I can’t control the outcome of this or if you even read this but please it would mean so much to me more than anything ever could. I’ve heard your story about getting into formula 1 but my parents wouldn’t be willing to put that much effort into me because they have 2 other kids. Best of luck to you Lewis, Caleb Scheffey
Hi Lewis,
Great to see the Mercedes improving again with your skill and there expertise you will prevail, the best of luck this season, keep safe, Dave
Hi Lewis,
I’m Annamarie, from Hungary.
I just want to tell you, what a fantastic man you are, a true role model who inspires others. You’re simply amazing.
Your fight against the racism and the inequality is exemplary, that you’re trying to make a change in the world so that people are not judged by the color of their skin, their origin or sexual orientation.
It would be wonderful to meet you one day and talk to you about it.
I wish you from the bottom of my heart to win your eighth world championship title.
Hi Lewis
I just wanted to say a massive thank you for the work you have done in F1 to improve inclusivity and the impact it is having much wider in others sports and society. I have been a F1 fan for several years and I smile even more every time I watch the programme now when I watch women, people of different ethnicities and people with disabilities presenting/commentating on the programmes/race.
As a female I often only ever saw sports programmes either presented by men only, or if a female was involved its was normally because of their looks (not their actual experience/involvement in the sport), The women involved in F1 commentary are the role models of sports women I want to see on TV (not the “stick thin/models” normally being used as eye candy for men to watch).
I also instruct and compete at a world level for Great Britain in a sport that is white, male dominated and at times have struggled as a female to manage the scenarios and prejudice and experiences that go with that. It inspired me to join the board of directors to try and improve the sport for those under represented groups and I am now part of the equality, diversity and inclusivity committee/working group.
Being female I felt able to contribute to ideas to improve gender equality but felt not qualified to understand how to improve the sport for people of different ethnicities or people with disabilities. I have taken inspiration and many ideas from your work.
I do not expect any reply, however if you would have any time/advise to help further the development of EDI in our sport , especially as I believe you participate in the sport as well ( Although I think maybe only in Dubia/aboard (I am not aware you a BS member). I would love to hear your feedback/ideas.
Keep up the amazing work.
Kate
Hello!! Lewis/fellow fans please help me find a yellow Mercedes cap.
Yellow symbolises happiness, sunshine and a happy soul.
I have my T-shirt I just need to find my yellow Mercedes cap before I go see Lewis. Please help
Hello Lewis!
You are my dad’s absolute favorite racecar driver! He turns 60 next week, so I was wondering if you would be willing to record a ~5 second video to say something like “happy 60th birthday, Joe!”. I’m willing to pay, and I’ve reached out to your management team with all the details if you would be interested in doing this for a fan. I sincerely appreciate your time and consideration!
Thank you so much!
Dear Lewis,
As most Brazilians, I’m a big fan of yours. Not only because you’ve always demonstrated love for our country and admiration for Ayrton Senna. My admiration and respect for you goes beyond that. I can imagine how hard was to be accepted and to succeed in F1, being part of a minority. We all know how racism still persists in our society nowadays. And yet, fighting against all odds you have succeeded. Big time. With flying colours!
Having said that, I was extremely disappointed when I learned that you are endorsing Banco Itaú in Brazil. It is a shame and very bad for your reputation, specially among Brazilians. I am sure that you are not aware what this bank is. They have publicly endorsed and contributed to the political campaign of our now President Lula da Silva, a big time corrupt who have caused over $500 Billion US in losses to Brazilian taxpayers. He was tried and convicted to 12 years in prison, which was unanimously confirmed by two courts of appeal totaling 20 different independent judges. After serving 580 days in prison, he was set free by the Supreme Court due to a technicality. The Brazilian Law strictly forbids any ex-con to run for a public office. In spite of that, due to purely political maneuvers of the Supreme Court, this criminal is now sitting on Brazil’s President chair. For more information on the greatest corruption and political scandal of mankind ever, follow #BrazilWasStolen.
To finalize I don’t think you want to have your public image associated to this bunch of crooks which support the greatest thief in Brazilian history. This would simply contradict everything that you have fought for during your career and public life.
Should you need further assistance or information, don’t hesitate to contact me.
I wish all the best to you and your career.
Hi,
My name is Monty, I’m 14 years old and I am writing to you because I hope you can help me. You inspired me to get into motorsports, I watch every F1 race and I am going to the British Grand Prix with my Dad next year. After a few sessions with friends I completed a Cadet course at my local Go Kart track and now race there at least once a week. My lap times are really improving and I love racing.
I am looking into geting into competitive Go Karting but don’t know what the right next steps are. Is there any advice that you could give me?
Thank you
Monty
P.S. Good luck for 2023. Especially at the British Grand Prix
Hi Lewis, it’s me again. I love you.
As a former educator, from a racially prejudiced background, employed with private education agencies and Herts County Education authority specifically in Stevenage, I offer reassurance of the improved respect and inclusion of racial and ethnic diversities in the local education industry. Please contact for specifics. Kind regards, Rob
Lewis, as an impartial fan I just want to say one thing. I think more than anything luck is not supporting you for some reason. I don’t know if you believe in manifesting or not but I think people all over the world wanted you to lose and somehow it got manifested. I really think you have to correct it. Otherwise no matter how good you drive you will somehow lose and I feel like you already know it. In normal circumstances you shouldn’t have lost to Max in 2021 and George in 2022 . I really want you to win.
Hello Sir Lewis,
I know this is a crazy request as I know many people already did this, but I am shooting my shot.
One of my best friends is a huge fan of yours and her birthday is around the corner. I thought that she will appreciate the gift that I prepared, one of them being a tiny helmet, a replica based on the one that you wore last year for the Canadian GP.
What I am trying to ask: is there any possibility that I can send the helmet to you (it comes covered in a transparent cube) so that you can write a happy birthday message for her, please?
I know this gesture will make her cry for sure, but she will forever appreciate it.
Kindest regards,
Rares
Dear Lewis ,
I am your die hard believer , your track record is amazing and the effort you put to get best results is amazing. Currently , am preparing for my exam and trying my best to get the desired seat , and you are the biggest motivator for me .
I hope one day I can see your race live….
You’re the best Lewis ??

Sir Lewis Hamilton
I hope you read this fan mail because I believe I could change your perspective about racing. I was brought up in the UAE and I was reading the newspaper in 2019 that highlighted the Abu Dhabi GP construction being complete. Something huge was coming up in my country although I’m an Indian and that was the first time I was introduced to F1. Formula One. A name that geeks like me take it as a formula to be learnt in school. I went to the nearby internet café since we didn’t have Wi-Fi and I googled about F1 and the first result that came up was the WDC of 2008. A person in white/red suit, little hair, wearing a Vodafone cap (Vodafone was a cellphone carrier in India) and unusually the only dark man on track. As what any 9 y/o would do, I started watching videos about F1 and it was quite interesting. I used to watch only the final race as I wasn’t able to understand the scientific and managerial concepts in F1. I thought it was a race for very weird cars.
In school, when everyone were arguing about Messi and Ronaldo, I would be wondering who would be winning the next GP and I didn’t have anyone to talk to about F1, cause no one in my class knew about it. So I’d rather hang out with the boys watching men fight over a ball. My heroes were you, Alonso and Vettel; and not Messi or Ronaldo. And people called me crazy for cancelling out plans on Sundays to watch the race. Fast forward a few years, it is the end of 2013 and news about you joining Mercedes came up. Honestly, I felt that stupid. You took the hard way out. In a way, my life advices were based on what you did. You have been inspirational to not just me, but the whole world out there who’s suffering.
This is more likely a thank you mail rather than a fan mail cause you, sir, have been indirectly mentoring me on how to choose my choices and how to make a new option as a choice and how to push forward with everything’s happening. My father, who may merely be a man to the world but to me, he was my superhero. He worked day and night even with a skin condition that tortured him mentally. Recently, he got diagnosed with Stage 4 adenocarcinoma (Pancreatic Cancer) while my sister was in her first trimester. Yesterday, on 19th December 2022, my sister gave birth to a baby girl and yet my dad couldn’t pick up the baby because he had his 10th chemotherapy the same day. The reason why I’m telling you this is to understand my POV. There were sleepless nights and there were nights I wished I ended my life so that I just don’t have to go through what I was going from July 2022.
If you’ve made it this far, thank you. If you want to know what drove me till today, its you, sir. I would be looking for GP weekends so that something would take my mind away from where I am. And seeing you trying so hard provided with the given disappointing car, pushed me to hang on. I really want to see you win. I want you to fight for what was yours. I have come to my terms with my father’s illness, but I am not yet ready to come to terms with you. Its sad to say this, but I have more hopes in you winning your 9th WDC than my father surviving cancer. And that is one thing I’m begging you to do. Prove to the children and the minority and the financially backward that one can achieve anything if you keep pushing. I do not mean to lay any stress on you, but there are a million children and minority groups looking towards you as their inspiration. Red Bull exceeded the budget cap by around £1.8M, and that was considered minor. That minor amount could have in fact proposed a cure for my father’s cancer. And the fine imposed by the FIA, i.e. £7M could have saved a million lives and probably solved world hunger.
As I’ve come to terms that money has a different perspective to different classes. You and your team have money, plenty of it, I suppose. Explore the world. There might be unrecognized skilled mechanics and engineers that could lead up to W11 2.0. Give me a reason to keep pushing. Give us the reason. I received my visa to study in the UK for my masters in Structural Engineering in Coventry University. I’ll arrive in Jan 2023 and I’m most excited to watch you win in Silverstone on 9th July 2023. I’ll work part time to repay my dad as he needs it for Immunotherapy and also save enough to watch the race at least Free Practice if I can’t afford it.
Dear sir, please forgive me if I had been rude or addressed you impolitely as English is not my mother tongue. I only want you to win the record-breaking World Championship. That’s my only wish now. Please listen to this fan. And I do wish my anonymity to stay.
Thank you
hi sir lewis!!
this was my first season as a formula 1 fan, and it’s been a great joy to support you this year. my dad and i don’t really see eye to eye on very much, but i started looking forward to sundays when we’d get to bond over rooting for you. i think that not only are you a racing phenom, but you’re charismatic, kind, and tenacious. your fashion sense is stellar and i really admire your willingness to utilize your platform to speak on social issues. as someone who is black and queer it means a lot to have your support. i hope you have a lovely holiday, can’t wait to see you on the track in 2023!
Hi Sir Lewis
I`m very, very proud of your hard work to develop the team this year. You never gave up despite the bad luck you had this year.. I hope next year we will see all your hard work (and the team) pay off, I`m shure it will happen!
You are the best F-1 Driver ever!!
I´m your fan for ever! as I`m Senna`s too!
I wish you the Best Luck for you and your family.
Kind Regards
Maria Curado from Portugal
Dear Sir Lewis, I can not say I am a huge fan but I am a huge F1 fan and realize how amazing your accomplishments are and what a rare talent you have. Being the driver you are to F1 you have been a remarkable ambassador of the sport and have transcended the race barriers in so many ways. You truly are an inspiration. I just wish you could find it within you to step away from the sport before something terrible happens to you. You rank with my hero Schumacher and with Fangio and the other greats of history and have achieved even more than they have. I am just worried that the odds will eventually catch up and it be you who they catch up with. Please do not leave us like Senna did or Clark. I know cars are much safer but how safe can you be at 200 mph. You seem super human to the world but we know you are a mere mortal as are we all and subject to the same possibilities. Please do not hold on so hard that you leave us too soon. We need you to carry on like Jackie Stewart. You influence will carry the rest of your life because of your incredible accomplishments but they can not if you are not here to be the man you are. Take care of yourself God bless you and good luck in the final Hos this year. You do not have anything to prove to us. Please do not get hurt or worse trying to prove it to yourself. You are one of the greatest of all time and we need you in retirement as much as active driving. You could influence so much still. Outside of racing especially. With Love and respect.

To whom it may concern,
I am writing to you today, to tell you about a project, me and my friends have made about Lewis Hamilton for black history month.
We came to the decision to base it on Lewis Hamilton as we believed as a whole, that he is a huge inspiration to all. After loads of research from the charity’s he’s helped and all the good he has done, we were all left speechless. As you may be able to see from the pictures, we spent a lot of time personalizing our work and even making him with paper-Mache and old kitchen roll and making a podium to celebrate all of his 7 amazing world championships. To get people reading it engage and interested by the good he brings.
More to the point, it would make us all really happy, and I believe it would be very factual for our whole college or even class to arrange a 5–10-minute teams call to allow Lewis Hamilton to answer some of our questions, and he can tell us what he has done and his background, within racing and the difficulties he may have experienced. However, we understand he is very busy and is in-between races, but it would mean a lot to us but if you are too busy it’s understandable.
King regards

Lewis,
This message is to congratulate you on your most recent business venture. I reached out to you approximately twenty years ago. You were in Formula Renault UK, and doing quite well. If not for seeing your picture in an issue of F1 Racing (Rising Star) and the ELF Masters…Who knows? You were gracious enough to respond to my message, and send some Christmas cards. I still have them to this day in a shadowbox along with a copy of the email. As a native of Indianapolis, Indiana, I’ve always enjoyed racing. My brother and I attended your first visit to the Brickyard. We watched with pleasure seeing you capture both the pole, and your second career victory. Wendell Scott, Willie T. Ribbs and Bill Lester were the only black race drivers I knew. I am so glad you were able to achieve so much success.
I was hoping the same for my eldest son. However, it’s expensive. So I managed to get him into Soap Box Derby, and local indoor karting when he was eight. He did very well, and you both were my inspiration to write screen and teleplays about it. That along with the fact that I’m a veteran educator, and he was diagnosed with Autism. I published World Champion and Ground Effects shortly after our exchange. Plus many more. All of my publications center around diversity, love, humor, action, family, and special needs. They are all on Amazon Kindle under my name. I hope this message gets to you. Would love to hear from you again since we had twins since our last conversation.
Warmest regards,
Todd C. Burnette

Thank you very much
Dear Sir. Lewis Hamilton.
My name is Mirey and I’m one of your biggest fans, I’ve been watching you race for years and i know all about you and would love to meet you in person one day but unfortunately i can’t afford that.
I live in Lebanon and we’re having economy crisis well its been around 3 years now, and im unemployed and can’t find a job.
It’s one of my dreams to meet you in person because you have an amazing soul and the kindest person I’ve ever seen and humble too.
I hope you’ll get this message.
I wish you luck and health ?
Love your biggest fan?
This is for Lewis,
You have a very secure foundation of peace, which sets you apart from the rest of the drivers. You have this stoic, almost sage-like presence about you which is a tremendous value – but negative thoughts and feelings are infiltrating this foundation and deteriorating away from your self-confidence and therefore performance.
The mind is one’s biggest block because we get caught up focusing on and highlighting all the challenges instead of the successes. You probably can’t stop the constant negative and toxic thoughts from streaming through your consciousness. This bleeds into your confidence, motivation, and inspiration to outperform your competitors and it’s most likely stealing away your peace off the track too.
You can change all of this in a matter of weeks. We can elevate your mindset and therefore perspective so as to illuminate all the positivity and peace in your life which will then strengthen your confidence and therefore performance.
Your mind is the only thing holding you back. I would like to help you retrain it so that it once again empowers and inspires you to be a champion. You remember what it “felt” like to be a winner, mentally… we can gain that back and furthermore, strengthen that feeling too.
We can work on completely eliminating the thoughts and beliefs that no longer serve your desires for success. And you already have such a force of positive willpower going for you, so the change won’t take long.
Over a 30-minute phone call I’ll walk you through exactly what this process looks like and you can decide if it’s something to consider. I promise you’ll gain so much from our call no matter what you decide to do after.
I’m here to help because I empathize with your struggle. After losing my wife to cancer I fell into that void of darkness and despair, it was simply horrible. But it also gave me the opportunity to elevate myself out of it… to discover true peace, confidence, fulfillment, and love again – all within my mind and heart. I was successful in my quest.
Now I help people elevate themselves from their toxic and negative thoughts and beliefs by wielding the power of both their mind and spirit. (And humbly speaking, I’m really good at it.)
There’s an actual science to it in a sense and I just know that you’ll benefit from it beyond what I can even describe here in this email. I felt inclined, or maybe even deeply inspired, to reach out because you have such a bold and caring heart. Your mind should match that energy but I don’t believe it does – I’d like to help you do exactly that. (And not just for you to be supremely successful again on the track, but more importantly so that you know peace and fulfillment off it)
I’m grateful for you and look forward to the opportunity of helping you become a champion again, within your own mind both on and off the track)
All I need is 30 minutes, I promise you won’t regret your time.
Warmly,
Joe Hehn

Hi Lewis
I am a huge fan of yours. I am very sad to say that on your fb pages there are a multitude of scammers pretending to be you and just would like to warn the fans. If you send a dm then you are contacted and they send you a link to Google chat . Next they start chatting to you and one of the first questions is you are a woman is “are you married” and further along they then ask for money for various things. I have always call them out. I have one who says he (pretending to be you) in love with me and wants to marry me ?
Just warning the fans to be careful
Hi Lewis, I’m looking for a sponsor to potentially pay for me to compete in Club 100 next year. I’ve only done indoor karting so far, but I’m pretty confident i’ll do good in outdoor karting. I’m consistently top 6 in the junior category at my track (I’m 13 years old) so i feel like i’m ready for the next step. I was hoping you, or someone you know could come down to my track and watch me race, and we could work on a sponsorship deal from there. I’m from African-Caribbean descent as well, and we need some more diversity in this sport. I’m running out of options fast, because I don’t have the budget for national karting and really want to get to F1. I really hope you will help me.
Kind regards,
Cairo Samuel
I am contacting you on behalf of my 13 year karting daft boy, Fin loves karting and would take him every week if funds permitted but he is very patient and waits few weeks between sessions, he was due to kart this weekend but has fell 8ft at an accident at school fracturing his thigh bone femur.
It was very painful and involved lots of blue flashing lights and fear his spine had been damaged and took 2 hours to stabilise him at the scene before transporting him to hospital where we were told he won’t be able to walk for 2 to 3 months let alone kart.
We are hoping with all our heart that the karting community could rally round for this cheeky chappy with any karting materials, leaflets, letters or pictures he’d faint for a sticker lol ! He has several operations and a long stay ahead in Edinburgh sick kids. Anything at all would be greatly appreciated and would light up this little boy for a long battle in healing that he has ahead .
Many Thanks from a very greatful mum

Dear Sir Lewis,
I hope this message finds you well.
I am Asagi Hozumi from Japan, a big motor racing fan and a vegantinatalist activist.
I am writing to you in the hope of getting your help with this initiative https://eci.ec.europa.eu/025/public/#/screen/home/allcountries achieve its goal so that:
– livestock farming gets excluded from the list of activities eligible for agricultural subsidies,
– ethical and environmentally friendly alternatives get their place on the list, and
– the production/sale of plant-based products and those made using cellular agriculture get incentivized.
This will be an extremely powerful initiative once it achieves its goal of 1 million statements of support, but sadly, being a non-EU resident, I cannot sign up to this to directly take part in it, and contacting someone like you is the best I can do.
Please note that even if this succeeds and governments have to take some action, it won’t literally end carnism.
However, I think it can actually make the ethical progress of humanity faster because it could attract not just vegans but also non-vegans who are interested in environmental problems and animal rights/welfare.
You are one of the most respected athletes, and have not hesitated to put your position to good use, one example being the fight against racism.
With the help of you encouraging your followers living in EU nations to sign up to this initiative, we could save god knows how many sentient animals from horrible hell of pain.
Thank you very, very much for reading this message, and if you decide to take action, I appreciate it on behalf of animals saved by your choice.
Sincerely,
Asagi Hozumi

Hello Lewis hope you are doing good.
My name is Vishnu and I’m from India. This year my birthday and the Belgian GP falls on the same day. I hope you win this race and lots of love from India!
Dear Hamilton Lewis,
I wanted to ask if it might be possible to get a hand signed sweater or t-shirt with “for Verena from Lewis” for my fiancee Verena from You.
Unfortunately her father passed away this year and I would like to give her this for Christmas. She became a huge fan of You through her father. So I think that would be one of the best gifts I could give her. Since she has followed every race with her father since she was a child.
I know that of course you get a lot of inquiries of this kind and I therefore see my chances as relatively small. But it would be just incredible to be able to give her this gift.
Of course, I will cover the costs of the sweater or t-shirt and the shipping.
I would be very happy about a positive feedback. 🙂
Kind regards
Christian
Hello respected LH, I am one of many millions who appreciate your way, how you approach life, the things that you say and do & achieve. I seem to be agreeing with everything you do. Thank you for being an inspiration to many many youngsters in this planet of ours. you have many more to achieve and continue to inspire the new generations to come. May the good GOD help you all the way.
FFS, it’s the the driver, it always has been the driver. How many more times do I have to repeat myself?
2022, FFS, it’s the car, it’s the car, it’s not the driver Toto!
Lewis, I am a fan, Admirer of one of the most complete drivers that ever held an F1 steering wheel! Your car has failed you this year! its ok, you’ll drive the tires off it as you have before. You always find a way to make your car go to the end of any race FAST! when face with adversity you get stronger. You make it look like child’s play. You have true grit on the track. You cant teach that.
if i could will it, you would already have your 8th, I want to see your 8th title. You got 7! how many others in the World can say I got 7. One. Who can boast more champion ships than you. NONEONE!
I can’t wait to see what the next few years hold for us fans. I’ll be watching. Not just F1 I’m looking for my driver. He currently drives a silver arrow. His Name is Sir Lewis Hamilton. Go get’em Lewis! Chin up always! you have achieved great things. Your the competitor. no one on the track wants to see you with a fast car. because they know they will have little chance! Love you Man!

HAM,
My father has an idea for tires that will help you and others. Please contact me to get in touch with him! HAM, this is going to change the tire game! He is a fan of F1 and has been trying to reach someone with his idea.
hello Lewis, it is a pleasure to know that there is a page where I can leave you messages, although with the help of the translator since my English is not very good, I am Hispanic from the Dominican Republic. I write to please you, at first when I followed you it was because you were my crush, but as time went by, you became my admiration, because your motivating messages are the best I have read in my life, every day I wake up and when I see your profile I read a great message that helps me a lot to have a good day, You can’t imagine how much you have helped me, God bless you a lot, and I hope one day you come to the Dominican Republic to meet you.
I hope this finds you, and not too long to read. Please read!
Recently, I have been working pro-bono for Melissa Harville-Lebron, the first African American NASCAR owner and so happens to be a single mom. Quickly, I am an advisor for tech startups. Melissa came to me to recraft her story from an outside perceptive. That is what I do, help startups.
Regardless, I want this person to succeed in a sport that needs crazy change. She needs visibility, if anything. The first thing that came to mind was Lewis. I have been an F1 fan since I was 4. I am 47 now. The only race I watched in person was in 1978 in Long Beach, and never missed a race on TV since.
We need more dedicated souls fighting for social change. You are making a huge difference worldwide and in my country, America. You are more than the greatest F1 driver of all time.
I am unsure what to ask, and I feel you probably get much of this. However, I think this story about Mellssa is close to your heart. She is struggling with sponsorships. As you can imagine, NASCAR is different or not different than F1 due to unfortunate events in Austria, Piquet, Marko.. yea, not so different.
I am reaching out to anyone and everyone for Melissa to get given visibility. Her story is amazing, and corporations will want to sponsor only if the world hears it. Maybe I am naïve, but we need to try. I am trying. That is why I am reaching out to you, Lewis.
We all recognize the change needed in motorsports. NASCAR still flies the confederate flag, FFS! If anyone, you make a huge impact.
Dear Lewis, hope this message finds you well, always been a fan of f1, and have watched your whole career, I even bought a sim set up , that I can’t use, lol, but that’s another story, i just wanted to say how’ve you have inspired me, Im 50 now , but over the past five years I’ve lost 5 stone and toned up from 17 to 12.5 stone, and been this steady weight for the past year., How to came to pass? I listened to a talk you gave once (amongst many), and the message on the back of your helmet “still i rise”, woke something inside me. I quit my job and worked on myself, Im now in the third year of a performing arts honours degree. I use to live in England but moved to Ireland 20 years ago. I used to suffer with my mental health also fifteen years ago and Im now 4 years free of that hell. I still work on myself every day. Your journey and character have been inspiring to me.. I hope you don’t quit in the next two years, although you’ve nothing to prove. Your a inspiration to so many. and your bravery to question the “status quo”, a lesson to all. Thankyou.. “Sonas”.
Dear Lewis.
I just wanted to say that you are an incredible role model & the greatest ambassador for Britain that we have. You have been faced with such childish behaviour from other F1 drivers/management & can only say your dignity throughout has not gone un-noticed. You have remained calm, strong & quietly persistent.
I am glad you have a voice & use it for the common good. I hope you never let any haters remarks get to you because you make me proud to be British, Sir!
Hi Sir Lewis
Thank you for your P3 in Silverstone GP!
Thank you for your excellent drive!
Thank you for your contribute to this thrilling race! you`ve done all and at some point I thought the possiblity to become P1, it was amazing!
Thank You for your achievement!
You are THE BEST F1 Driver ever!
Kind regards
Maria from Montijo, Portugal
Hi Lewis.
I came to the silverstone gp last weekend but left after being discriminated against for my disability. I don’t want to bore everyone with this but if you’d like to hear more please let me know my email is connorsailing@gmail.com
Hi Lewis,
Thank you so much for your performance in Silverstone GP,! it was so great to see you running so fast, fighting for podium and sometimes I thought, maybe, for the Wiinnig 1st place, too!! But it was so GOOD to see you , to see Mercedes on the top with Ferrari and RB.
I think Perez should have been penalized for throw you out of track during de last laps,.. but it is what is is ,between FIA and RB…
I know you will keep pushing, harder and harder, to achive winnings!!
Thank You! thank you so MUCH ++++++ for Silverstone GP! SO GREAT!!
MKind regards
MRosario from Portugal
To Sir LH44, my wife was your biggest by far South African fan. She was so looking forward to watching you win at Silverstone. Ineffably sadly, she passed away last night after a long battle with cancer. Her family wish you luck in winning tomorrow.
Hi Lewis,
Anxious to see you in Silverstone GP!
I hope Mercedes factory has done all changes you need to get them all!
Good Luck and I wish the best for you ! :):):) .
Kind regards
From Portugal, Maria Rosario
Dear Sir Lewis: I have been watching your amazing act since 2007. Fast yet smooth, you remind me Juan Fangio – and I have seen the opposite technique like Keke Rosberg routinely cornering on two wheels at Watkins Glen. I am simply moved to offer you my support subsequent to the Nelson Pique falderal, throughout which you have remained such a class act Thank you so much for being who you are. I greatly admired you before, but since last December’s race you have really shown the world how to handle adversity with dignity. I know it has been heartbreaking. I feel as though I was with Michelle Obama when she gave you the hug in Miami. Sincerely, Fritz Trakowski

Hi Sir Lewis
Just wanted to ask a massive favour.
I know your really busy but if you could just send me a quick video wishing Duncan Neale a Happy 60th Birthday so I can play it him would really make his day he’s a MASSIVE MASSIVE fan and I owe him so much he gave me a chance when no one els would Thank you.

It’s incredible watching a living legend race in formula 1. Please take care of yourself while the bouncing issue is solved, and keep hope that the silver arrow will again be fighting for wins soon. Rise Hamilton rise!!
Hi Over the past two years I have became a huge formula 1 fan. It’s so hard to pick favourite drivers ever but you are my favourite, you always persevere when things get hard like the other weekend at Baku when you made it into fourth place with a really difficult car to drive. One day I hope to go to a Grand Prix and try to meet you but I think that’s difficult without the expensive tickets so I’m going to leave this message in the hope you see it! You are the best driver keep doing what you’re doing. Never retire.
Hello there!
I really don’t know how to start this so I will just dive in. I’m from Romania, currently working on a very close to reality motion simulator that can simulate G-forces too, Roll ,Pitch, Sway, Surge, Heave, (Yaw)Traction Loss (work in progress). I saw AMG Petronas simulator and I think is very limited. With my design you can collect data about what the driver body feels on track without putting him inside the real car and risk a crash when pushing. Porpoising can be prevented with this type of setup too. Braking to perfect point can be achieved. Feeling the balance based on car telemetry and testing different setups without involving the real car in the process. I only had limited resources to build this but my imagination is far beyond this point with more to work with. Here is a sample of the beta model in action, I really hope it will reach out to you!

Hi Sir Lewis,
Thank you for the message you sent to all your fans apologizing for your results ( so far in my opinion) in the F-1 World Champinoship.
Lewis, your fans will always LOVE You, Admire You, for being who you are , as a person and as the
Best F-1 driver ever!.
About Monaco GP: Could someone explain to me why they (FIA) delayed this GP so much? it was by the rain?! this is a F-1 GP.!!… I don´t understood the decision.
In the middle of the race you were “blocked” by Alonso, who with his attitude created a second platoon.., unbelievable the things he does!… it sucks/(sorry for this term).
Lewis, no matter what, please continue with passion running to win, alwways doing better, because it`s the only thing that still makes me look forward to watch F-1 Racing. Still you Rise!
See you at Azerbaijan GP!!
Best regards
Maria Rosario from Portugal
Dear Mr Hamilton
I write to share the good news that Finlay Palmer has earned the rank of Eagle Scout, the highest honour in the Boy Scouts of America.
Fin moved over from the UK to the USA a few years ago and is a British Citizen.
To earn the Eagle Scout rank, a Boy Scout must fulfill requirements in the areas of leadership, service, and outdoor skills. To advance, a Boy Scout must meet specific requirements, ranging from tenure in a unit and leadership positions to the earning of 21 merit badges. It usually takes many years to earn the award.
For Fin’s Eagle Scout service project, he built hands free hand sanitizers and installed Covid safety mechanisms for a local free health clinic. He secured all the materials for free by linking with Lowes Hardware store in the USA who donated the supplies and got a group of scouts together and led them to build the devices and carry out the work.
But the Scouting experience goes far deeper than one big project. Fin also learned the path to effective leadership and will apply that to other parts of their life —both as he completes high school next year and beyond at college.
In addition to passing along word of Fin’s hard-earned accomplishment, may I humbly request that you send a brief letter of congratulations? As a special surprise for Finlay, we are preparing a collection of these letters to present to him I know he would be honoured and delighted to see your comments included.
Thank you for your time in reviewing this letter in amongst your very busy schedule — and for all you do to support and uplift our young people.
Kind regards,
Pip Palmer, Troop 15

Dear Lewis,
It has been such a pleasure to watch you race at the Circuit of the Americas. I was really looking forward to the race this year in October, I have all-weekend tickets!
Please, I beg you, as a woman in Texas and a lifelong Formula 1 fan, refuse to compete this year in Austin. Texas has become such a dangerous place for women and children and it will only get worse. Please encourage the FIA to pull out of Texas and encourage your fellow drivers to boycott events here. I register as many people as I possibly can to vote and it makes no difference. Our state is being taken over rapidly by fascism. The only thing they respond to is the almighty dollar. It needs to be financially ruinous for our state to continue down this path before anything will change. The FIA should not tacitly support Texas by racing here. Please, please, please help take a stand.
~Ella
Hi Lewis,
Last weekend, 22/05/22, you had an incredible display at Barcelona GP, reminding all of your seventh time World Champion status, by charging through the pack from de back of the field to finish P5!
Well done Lewis! Bravo!
You are the best F1 driver ever! it`s always a pleasure to see you !
GOD Bless you!
Kind regards

Hi Lewis ! Here is a request for a birthday message to my sister.
My name is Léa. Today is May 10, 2022 and this is my little sister Alizée’s birthday. She just turned 14 and she’s a huge fan of you and Formula 1. She follows every races on TV, even with the time difference between other countries and ours, which is France. She always supports you in moments of victory, as in the most difficult ones.
I’m contacting you just to know if you could maybe surprise her in wishing her a happy birthday. You can send me a message or a short video on Instagram (I sent you a message there) or by Mail. I know that you must receive a lot of messages, but I wanted to try anyway. A birthday is only celebrated once a year, so I really hope you will see this message. Thank you for everything you are doing for your fans.
I am completly sure that Ali’ couldn’t dream of a better present…
Good luck for future ! Léa
Sir Lewis, Its been very difficult watch you struggle in every race this year 2022. Mercedes went seven year in a row with better and more faster car. They need to hire new engineers. Toto is in the position to hire new people but he won’t do it if you have tried the same thing every weekend with same results why keep trying. Fire people!!! you can’t tell me there is not better engineers out there that can figure this problem out. Why is Mercedes former engineers with red bull?
Hi Lewis,
From Portugal, Fan number ONE: In Miami GP You run very very well and I am very Proud!
Fortunatelly Mercedes has improve with your car, but the decisions they took in last laps during a safety car was really not decent. Russel took advantage and pit to change tires, but the strategy for you was not similiar, I dont understand Mercedes….. and they should also train more the Pit stop Times! Red Bull allways does better :(.
Now the most Important: I wish you all the Best for Barcelona GP!
GO GET THEM! :):)
Kind Regards
Maria Rosario /Portugal
Hi Lewis. Really hope you are doing ok. The jewellery rule is ridiculous and we support you taking that stance!! :). We have lots to talk about. Our 8 month old daughter is coming to see you win this year – she absolutely loves speed and we would love for you to meet her! She also loves dogs like you! We are big followers of older Mercs – my husband and I love them & buy them when we can. He is also a chiropractor and if you need an adjustment he is definitely your man. He is excellent at his job. But anyway we would really love to see you and for you to meet our little girl and Homer our chocolate Labrador (who watches all of your races too)! Take care of yourself, lots of love John l, Breda, Aja (baby) l, Homer (dog), shitty (the cat) & king (the best horse ever!)
Hi Lewis,
I am also a great fan of you apart from your driving your personality attracts me a lot. Your help was people is really generous. just accept token of thanks fromme, an Indian girl Twinkle. With lots of love
Sir Hamilton, first of congratulations to Mercedes. We need a win! Second or third place is not acceptable at this time. We are so behind on the point. Embrace the moment and no regret! Challenge yourself and test your limits! I will always hold you to your words “am back” and ” you got to dig deep.” You carrying the whole black brown and yellow people behind you. Let’s go!!!!
Sir Lewis,
Hi, I`m your greatest fan from Portugal and I wish you a Great Run. You are the GREATEST F! DRIVER of alll time!!
I wish you lots of positive energy, concetration and faith for the MIAMI GP!
Kind regards
Maria Rosario from Portugal
Hi Sir Lewis Hamilton,
I would like too get in touch with you as I know you are a harden supporter of “black lives matters/No to racism” I am from South Africa and I know all about racism, as you know SA been the most atrocious country in the world when it comes to racism. Yes!!! we still do have racism but it’s racism in reserve. I wonder if I can have a chat with you, as I have some ideas on how to get rid off racism especially with sports bodies.
I will really appreciate your reply.

Hi Lewis,
I`m confidente that Mercedes in the factory will solve the problems in your car and that the setting the set up will improve your performance on the track.
Although there are younger rider showing off, you´re the best F1 driver ever!
I`m looking forward and confident for the Miami GP. I know you are going to do your best, as usual.
GOOD LUCK TO MIAMI!
I WANT YOUR BRILLIANT SMILE BACK!
Your number ONE FAN from Portugal/Montijo

Sir Lewis,
I expect better results next time. I hope you testing driving around the race track this new car and making tweaks with the engineers. Spend time in the garage even if it takes you away from the fun out there. It’s a new season. Just think what your opponents are doing right now. Its looks easy for max because he has done it millions of times. Muscle memory. Its not easy like nothing in life. Let your work do the talking. Spend less time in the lime light and more time in the garage. You are a great guy and I am a fan.
This is more than about racing or even you Lewis. Imo, by not standing up to them and walking as you should have, you have basically condoned their behaviour and allowed them to continue on “untarnished,” while handing them your ass on a plate… They have robbed you of at least three world championships already, so even the record books are not worth “the paper” they are written on…
Example, Schumacher is heralded, he gets to seven by cheating and having the FIA in his pocket. You get to seven by being cheated, constantly under attack and having championships stolen from you, while are said to be the one who has had it easy.. Everything is Backwards, it’s the Beast System..
What do you think we are dealing with here, they have no morals or ethics. They, again imo, will now try to bring you down to their level (lowest common denominator), make it appear that way (“perception is king”) or destroy your career and reputation at their leisure, if they can. Whomever you are listening to needs a reality check, seriously… And if it’s yourself Lewis, seriously, what are you doing… Never lose sight of the bigger picture, that is what it is always about in the end, to them and should be to you also, but for differing objectives of course…
You’ll be at Ferrari (in bed with the devil) before we know it… You need to take control, if that’s even possible anymore… Hopefully i’m wrong and you have a handle on it, but it all seems to be going just the way they have it planned for you… And no, i haven’t watched one race this year and will not again…
Sir Lewis,
hope all is well. i am a fan of you but we have work to do. you said last year we have to dig deep. i am holding you to your words.you said i am back thats another word i am holding you too. study from the greatest, spend time in the garage. take no for an answer, test drive the cars if you have too and if it is not to were you want it go back to the garage and twick it. you have to be persistent. you want to be the best you have to invest the time. take no for an answer. test drive the car before game day over and over again. red bull and ferrari cars are lighter

Yours Sincerely Tawny .. XO ..
Greetings! I’m a loyal Lewis Hamilton fan that has traveled from Texas to Abu Dhabi to watch Lewis set a tone of professionalism and relentless pursuit. It is the spirit of progressive and positive change that comes with the acts of Lewis which makes him an accomplished F1 driver and encourages me to support his mission. All others are simply chasing his image, as a leader. Winning is more than a wall of trophies; albeit, Lewis has an amazing collection.
Who am I? I retired, or so I thought! When I moved to Florida like a good retiree, I realized that I did not play golf and needed to remain useful. At age 53, I began my new life as a teacher. I chose to work in schools that were underperforming academically. Yes, I started with an F rated school intentionally. The neighborhood was full of good people without economic or social standing. I wanted to inspire change and create opportunity. In other words, I strived to offer a private school education in the harshest of public school settings. I learned that hunger is still a very real issue, even in the Sunshine State. I felt called to create magic through education and was named as one of 250 high impact teachers in the state of Florida. I even got a Master’s degree in Curriculum & Instruction to perfect my craft. Some would not understand what I have done, but I think Lewis would.
I’m writing because I presently teach Cambridge Business (A and AS Level). This is a college, year one and two, level course offered at the high school for those students that believe in challenging themselves. They are a “Class Act”! My students have lived and experienced F! through my eyes and lectures about character. Teaching social objectives, investor ratios, market segmentation, and the triple bottom line have been frequently taught though using real life content related to Lewis and F1. While I know this is a long shot, I wanted to take it! I would like to offer a few of my dedicated students at William T Dwyer High School (Palm Beach County Schools) the chance to experience a F1 race for themselves. With F1 being in Miami, the race is so close that I could facilitate transportation for the students. I would like to have you consider promoting and sponsoring a “Hamilton Class Act”, which would reward those that strive to excel in the classrooms near F1 venues. If you would be able to assist me in obtaining tickets for a few students to attend the Miami race, it would truly make my day! In life, the little things matter and I seek to make a difference every single day.
Lewis (if you read this), you are remarkable in every way and I’m proud to be a supporter of all your goals (on and off the track). Breaking the cycle and inspiring change is what I believe will be your legacy. Records and titles are impressive, but the changes we create shape the future!
I’m hoping to bring my students to see you in Miami, but if not I will be watching you this summer at Silverstone!
God Bless and Keep You!
Kindest regards,
Faye Gillespie, M. Ed.
Hi Lewis,
I have been looking forward to the 2022 season anticipating positive results for both you and your team after such a controversial loss as a result of human error. Truly a very difficult loss considering the reality that you would have won. Both you and your team are off to a difficult start but I am confident and believe you will rebound once the issues are resolved. Keep on the positive mindset even though I am sure it is difficult. Just dig deep and show them your back. All the best from Ontario Canada.
Hi
I have written a few times since the first testing before the season kicked off. I know a bit about aerodynamics, having flown fast jets for 20 years, and it seems to me that your wing mirrors are mounted on canards that generate a significant amount of lift forward of the centre of gravity. This will generate under steer and I am convinced it is the source of your problems this year. Get rid of those canards and put the mirrors on normal mounts!!!
Lieber Sir Hamilton Ich bin seit Sie Formel1 fahren Fan! Gerne vergleiche Ich Sie mit Ayerton Senna der leider viel zufrüh verstorben ist.Hätte sicher heisse Duelle gegeben zwischen Ihnen beiden.Der Fahrstiel hat einiges gemeinsam mit Ihm. Aber bitte bleiben Sie Uns allen Fans erhalten. Da Sie ja eine Kämpfernatur sind (wie Senna) hoffe Ich dass die Meldung (auf einen möglichen Rücktritt dieses Jahr) nur Fake News sind.Währe Schade um einen solchen Spitzenfahrer wie Sie es sind.Es gibt immer-wieder Hoch und Tiefs aber ich habe gelernt die Hoffnung nie aufzugeben.Ich wünsche mir nichts sehnlicheres als Sie weiter im Formel1 Rennen zu sehen.Mit herzlichen Grüssen Ihr Kurt und der ganze Fan-Club Hamilton Schweiz Go Louis Go.Dont Worry be Happy and win !!
Hello Lewis,
Here one of your Dutch fans speaking! Ist going to be difficult but come on and find the way… We know you can…
Lewis,
I used to be an Inshore Powerboat racer, and many times had the occasion of experiencing ‘Porpoising’ (the experience of the boat jumping up and down), this is usually caused by an imbalanced setup, causing air to get under the boat sporadically not creating a smooth flow of air under the boat to keep it ‘on the plane’.
It is an effect caused by sitting a tad too far back from the mid point of the boat which causes the power of the engine thrust to raise up (on the plane) and because of the imbalanced weight causes the boat to come off the plane momentarily hence the ‘porpoising effect.
In the powerboat (inshore) world we don’t have seat belts so it’s not too difficult to sort this by adjusting your weight foward by a 1/2 inch or so, which re-adjusts to mid-point of the boat to bring the bow (front) downwards slightly so counter-acting the ‘porpoising’ and bringing the boat onto a more level plane allowing the air to sweep under the boat ‘straighter’ and more evenly. perhaps this is something that you can investigate with your ‘porpoising’ troubles.
Good luck.
Regards
Andrew Hinge
Dear Sir Hamilton,
Hang in there,,, and enjoy the challenge. You have nothing to prove. You are the G.o.a.t. and you will always be an inspiration. Even for depressed middle aged white men who actually don’t have any right to complain like myself. Stand tall, smile and kick a++!
From the very early days you and your dad caught my attention your passion drive and love for racing. I believed in that and that you would achieve greatness. I followed you both as best I could without being to much of a stalker. Now I am hooked not just with F1 but with you Lewis from the boy to the man you’ve become the changes you have made in the world and how you have inspired me and so so many others. I have been to a few races but have never been lucky enough to see you face to face only from a fair my goal is one day to meet and talk to you through mail or face to face. As you are probably aware there are so many fake people out the impersonating you and unfortunately I’ve had my far share of them but I have faith that one day you will see my message and reply. I am a simple person I don’t ask for nothing I like to give what I can to others one way or another we all need to do what we can to make it a happier better world ????
Dear Sir Lewis Hamilton,
Can I please start by saying I am a massive fan, and what was done to you in that final race was disposable and after watching drive to survive I am convinced Christian slater and Michael Masse had something going on between them to Rob you of an eighth world championship which blatantly should of been yours. I have fell out of love with F1 after that final race. What’s worst is I was saying it for the last five races that Michael Masse was going to decide this world championship and it was going to be in red bulls favour. I HATE BEING PSYCHIC AT TIMES. Sir Lewis you will be the only reason I continue watching F1 this season, your car looks really good and I know we haven’t seen what you can really do in this car yet. I hope that in Bahrain you come out and dominate and win p1, p2 ,p3 qualifying and the race with George Russel right behind you and send shivers down red bulls spinesand show them what is coming there way this season, I hope you race like a bat out of he’ll right out the starting blocks as this will make me laugh hard and possibly bring my love for F1 come flooding back. Sir Lewis Hamilton you are by the far the greatest driver Formula 1 has ever seen and your stats back that up and you produced some of the greatest drives I have ever seen last year. When you get in the zone no one can beat you, and I hope your in the zone every race this season. Don’t let these F1 cheats bring you down and know you have a whole Army cheering you on and wishing you the very best I every race. I hope this message reaches you and gives you the lift you need.
I wish you all the best this season and I pray for you getting that eighth championship, all the best take care

Prezado Sir Lewis. Sua atitude ao final do campeonato de F1 em 2021 foi exemplar. Você e seu pai parabenizaram os consagrados campeões. Mas sua atitude diante do ocorrido foi de extrema compreensão da vida. Só existia uma resposta a ser apresentada a tudo que aconteceu com o Senhor. SILÊNCIO.
A voz do seu silêncio sabático e sua crença em algo superior, de modo a limpar a mente de todo lixo que poderia ser colocado e sua mente. Uma verdadeira purificação espiritual por assim dizer. o Senhor está consigo.
Dear Sir Lewis Hamilton ,
F1 first race round the corner and I am exited to see the championship tittle of 2022 is in your name Sir Lewis.
It’s been my passion to meet you when you are in Bahrain and by hook or by crook I make my dream come true , but last two years have been difficult due to covid restrictions and I have missed the opportunity to meet you and give my best wishes.
It’s my dream to see you back in Bahrain and meet you in person. Please make my dream come true. Wishing you all good luck for 2022. The first race tittle has been sealed in your name in Bahrain and no one can take it from you.
Welcome to Bahrain champ.
Hi Sir Lewis Hamilton I’m from south Africa i really love what you doing in sports, i started watching F1 when you become F1 champ for the 1st time, one of my wishes is to meet my role model Sir Lewis Hamilton have a great year this year and stay the humble man we all love i salute u Sir
Hi Lewis
Looking forward to the F1 and extreme E seasons. team 44.
Good to see the St Helena.

I am a massive Lewis fan, but I am e writing wondering whether Lewis could do myself and my two adult kids a favour.
Their dad of 64 although given a few months to live seems to only have weeks after cancer diagnosis early January 2022. I am so sad and in tears writing this as it is such a sad time for us. He is a massive F1 and Lewis fan and was angered by the Abu-Dhabi result… My daughter compares Lewis to Senna who she loves…. Hopefully we can get something or Lewis himself to make an appearance for a dying man who is not going to see Lewis race in a new era of car in 2022…
Hi Lewis
All the best for the F1 and Extreme E X44 season. Good also to see the St Helena.

Together we rise!
So proud of you man. I really am. Your dignified composure. Your graceful acceptance. Keep it up, Lewis.
I can’t wait to watch you win your 9th title 😉
I think I know the pain, I think I know the struggle. (my level way way below yours!)
I also know, you will win through in the end,
You won’t ever know the joy you have brought to this guy knowing now you are ‘going racing next season’, Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Go Lewis, go! Show the up and coming how to be the best you can be.
Oh, and lest we forget, Go Toto (love the passion!) go Team Merc and of course, go George ! Don’t pass on all the knowledge, Lewis – keep some up your sleeve 🙂
Hi Lewis,
Good you`re back, as I though you always will BE :):):!!
Anxious to see you in the new car !
Let`s GO Racing!!
Kind Regards

Hi Lewis, thought i would just pop in and see what’s what and give you my final thoughts on this…
Three times at least you have now been cheated out of a championship by the FIA and their grasping conspirators, 2021 being the most blatant and crushing… Imo if you continue you will be placating long standing criminals who have robbed fans of far more than just money and time, like they did with Damon Hill and that ref in his pocket Cheat Schumacher for ten years…
You will be leaving them open to doing it all over again, to both you and your fans, they have no shame, you know this…… F1 is totally corrupt, you must realise this by now and they will continue to do this to you/”us,” regardless of what they project otherwise… They can get a lot more down and dirty than they have already, so be aware..
There’s far more important issues to contend with now, humanity is on the brink of inhalation/”assimilation” and total enslavement of those whom remain, not just the novice forced compliance and enslavement we have now, that is always backed up by force or the threat of it……
Anyway, i wish you all the best whatever you do, you’ve been a wonderful example of how to behave, now it’s between you and God, nothing else matters, God Bless……
I’m getting near 80 now but I still fire up when Lewis drives.Go get ’em Lewis and show them how it’s done !!!
Hello Lewis,
and big greetings from germany. My son and me can’t wait to hear something from you. All of your fans around the world want to see you in this years 2022 Mercedes AMG F1 car to start the next battle against the bulls. Take the time you need for yourself and the people who are important to you and who give you strength. But don’t give the bulls and Max an easy next world F1 champion title. Your are the only one you can and will beat them because in our mind you are a 8 time F1 world champion. Forget last years decision. Push as hard like you did every race weekend. This year you are the challenger and there is nothing to lose and maybe that little fact will make it a bit easier fighting on the track. Max has to defend the title, that is new to him. Maybe in this season you try to attack and defend a bit harder especially against the bulls. In the tv it looked like that you had choosen the safe way. But maybe there is a little change necessary to compete with the agressive bulls. Remember all the fights againt Sebastian in Ferrari. I don’t know any moment where you lost the car. That is your advantage because you have so much more expirience than any other driver.
We wish you this 8 title more than I can describe in words. Records were made to be broken as Michael said. The bad decision is forgotten, lets keep pushing! 🙂
Many greetings,
your fans around the world
Still, by far, the best F1 driver there has ever been.
Hi Lewis,
Can you please clear the rumors of you not coming back for the next season? I am a big fan of yours and would definitely love to see you come back and win the 8th title this year!
Best Regards,
Ankit
To the best and the greatest of all drivers, to have driven a formula one car; I say how are you doing? I know you are fine? And I believe you are doing great!
Your victory can only be delayed but it will surely come only if you want it to come to pass. It did not surface last season due to an unfortunate bad decision. Nonetheless, I know, No one can stop you except you. What happened was clear in the eyes of the whole world, the pain is really indescribable.
I still feel it till date, I write you from Nigeria, and I want you to know that you are not alone for I feel your pain.
One thing is sure, what will be, will be! You, my man, keep doing your best as always brother. We are all in this together, and shall keep supporting you with our prayers and good wishes.
I know, what ever decision you make is totally okay for me and I wish you well. However, I know a true fighter never quit so keep fighting bro, and you will always shine like the the light. May the good lord guide your decisions and may he strengthen your heart my dearest formula one driver and the greatest of all.
Lewis pull your finger out and let us know what you’re doing ahh kid. You are my senna!
Sir Lewis Hamilton
I’m your huge young South African fan and look man what happened at the last race was total BS* but you gotta keep your head high and focus on the positive side of things. Alot has been said on the socials and I think the greatest thing you ever done for us fans and yourself is taking a break from socials… that’s very healthy and we all need it too. Now is the time to get back in the seat and work for your 9th title. You got my support and a lot of other people in the world! Obviously you are not forced to do this as you have your own limits as a professional athlete and I will 100% back you up in what ever decisions you take in 2022 and 2023.
Take care!?

Dear Lewis (and team)
It has been some months now since the last race, but I felt I just had to say something about that race (like many others have). I am a follower of F1 racing, a supporter of Red Bull racing, but also a supporter of Lewis Hamilton.
When the FIA officials took their decision, I was discussed at their “call” and due to their ruling, even more outraged at the final outcome.
If Max V was any sort of gentleman, he would not have accepted the trophy under these conditions, because it’s not a just a case of winning by any means ….. its how you win …… and this was totally outrageous and I will no longer be a supporter of Red Bull racing.
However, Lewis showed to the world what a “gentleman” he is by congratulating Max and shaking his hand (which must have been so difficult to do but Lewis demonstrated to all what type of gentleman he is).
I don’t think anyone would blame Lewis for taking a “sabbatical” this coming year, but I do however hope, Lewis will continue to race and show, that he is the world’s #1 driver and the1st class man that he is.
Best regards Lewis for your future years ahead.

Dear Lewis,

Dear Lewis,
I`m your portuguese number ONE Fan, I admire you as a great human being and for your achievments and goals too! But today, a very SPECIAL DAY, I wish you HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! I wish all the Best to you and your Family, in fact for everyone!
HAPPY 37th BIRTHDAY!! and Many more to come!!
Kind Regards
Maria Rosário
Happy birthday Sir Lewis Hamilton,
Please keep fighting for all the true fans of F1. We all need your help to show the World how a truly great Champion stands up again after they have been knocked down, even when they are punched below the belt. You are the only person who can show the cheats that they are wrong and you are not going to let them win. God bless you and all your family, have a fantastic year.
Hello, Lewis. I am your fan from Ukraine and I realize you may never read this message, but still want to congratulate you with your Birthday and support you after difficult season. I have been your fan since your F1 debut in 2007. I remember your highs and lows during your first seasons and always supported you. This support was only in my mind and my heart and it is still there. You are the person who inspires me to achieve new goals and one of that goals was a trip to F1 Grand Prix. It was 2019 Hungarian GP, which you won in excellent battle and my childhood dream was completed. I hope one day I will meet you either in F1 paddock or somewhere else and have some chat. Keep pushing and you will get more and more wins and titles. You might never read this message, but I still want you to know that my support is always with you. I even had some tears writing this message)
Still we rise! Happy birthday, champ!
Sir Lewis Hamilton in my opinion is a consummate professional and the true GOAT of F1. Like many others i was shocked and disgusted at his treatment in the last race, which was crafted to ensure that his 8th title was taken away. I will support Lewis in whatever decision he makes and always believe him to be the best driver ever.
God Bless
Alex Lews
Subject: Hello Lewis from Culpeper, Virginia,
I have been a fan of yours since I started watching F1. Always loved your drive to succeed, your skill and good character. I am not normally one for fan letters but I quickly wanted to say that in reality you and Max both won the championship this year. I am sure there must be a large amount of disappointment associated with such a loss as this year’s. Because I admire you very much I wanted to say that you actually should be hugely proud of your accomplishment in this year’s season. I am sure you have told this but you guys really brought an amazing season together for us fans in the face of a pandemic and racial strife. The entertainment factor you guys have brought has been a huge island of enjoyment for myself and many others. You guys have done a wonderful job!
I look forward to your return in 2022 because I know it’s going to be fun to watch you in the new car.
All the best,
not the,
James Taylor
Lewis, you won at Abu Dahbi. Please stay in the sport and show the World who is boss and that Verstappen’s win was an ‘assisted’ win. Also that you are the greatest F1 driver of all time.
Happy 37th Birthday Lewis. I hope this message finds you well. You’re an inspiration to us all.
Lewis,
It has been a while now since the last race and the comments already left say it all. We as your fans are fully behind you and just want to let you know we are here to support and our thoughts are with you at this time.
Stay strong and know that you have done nothing wrong and the system has let you and us all down. They will regret their actions one day I am sure.
You have done enough ?
John
Hi Lewis, I am Lereng from Zimbabwe.
First of all I would like to thank you for making me like and love Formula 1.
Your personality, your determination and your conqueror’s spirit against all odds drives me to keep going even in my own personal life.
I wouldn’t want to start talking about what happened in Abu Dhabi because that’s a sporting injustice that makes me sick, however having said that, please we want to see the lion in you roar again in 2022.
One day whether in your active racing days or after, I would like to see a fine human being that you are in person.
Hi,
I just want to say that I share Lewis mindset, In which for each obstacle or adversity that appears to us, time is needed to be able to overcome it and become stronger, both physically and mentally.
You will always be supported with whatever your decision is, which will be the correct one, even if it is not the one that everyone could wish for.
You have proven to be a great person, champion and you will always be, exceeding or not the 7 titles you already possess.
I send all the force for you, your family and your team.
All the best for your future.
Iker
Hi Lewis,
I admire so much your work, love what you do and you inspire me so much… I don’t know if you gonna see this message one day but I needed to tell you this..
Please return, Mercedes needs you, The F1 world needs you, your fans needs and finally I need you. I still want to see your exploits and be amazed by your prowess. It’s rare to see someone who cares sooo much about the injustices of this world…
I know I’m talking in the air but I thought necessary to write it even though you’re not going to respond.
Do you remember in one of your interview you were asked the best advice to give to your fans and you said “NEVER GIVE UP” so as I will not give up in texting you with the hope of you responding my ridiculous messages, you’ll not give up in F1 pleaseeee
Sooo, If ever in need of getting away from your hectic world here are my Instagram (Kemeldi.D), Twitter (KemeldiD) and Tiktok (Bruh. Keldi) accounts. My mom always tells me that entrusting appeases our hearts sooo…
Hoping for an answer soon,
K.
Lewis , If i had to guess you will never read this but you are at the top of your game , you have so much to be grateful for iam not in your shoes but you know there is always next year , i feel you got a raw deal but you know its racing and most important shit happens and there isnt much one can do about it , so come back stronger than ever and best of luck in everything you do.
best wishes John
Dear Mr. Hamilton,
I wish you the very best of health, happiness, and luck in 2022! As a Dutch F1 fan, I just wanted to briefly say: Dear Mr. Hamilton, you are absolutely amazing, you are a true champion, both on-track, and off-track.
Very best regards,
Marco
Hi Lewis,
What happened this year was scandalous, in addition to Patel Gordon-Bennett’s petition on the Change website (which I signed), why not make T-shirts, caps and other garments that read “for me Lewis Hamilton World Champion 2021”?
in this way when next year the cameras will film the public they would continue to send a strong message and make the FIA “gentlemen” understand that certain misconduct does not go unnoticed and make Verstappen understand that in reality a large part of those who follow Formula 1 do not considers him the champion of 2021
regards
Ubaldo
Only recently joined F1 watching starting last year, as part of my HPDE efforts. You are an amazing driver and it helps me each day I get in to my car to try harder. I love watching from your car camera to see how you take each turn. Thanks for all the enjoyment. More of the best to you.
Hi Lewis
I have been a fan of F1 for so long. And yes you were robbed of your 8th world title, I feel your hurt but man don’t retire, you will regret it. you are the fastest driver out there and deserve that 8th title, you can do it, you have never given up, so please don’t give up this time. I want to see that 8th title and history made with the passion and speed you show in every race. You have a team that worship what you have done with them, and next years car will provide you the platform to show all that you are a fighter at the peek of your passion to win. Go Go Go Lewis
For all the children out there never give up!
Matty
Lewis you are a role model for our youngsters. Don’t give up even if you never gain that elusive all important title. We love you. Go and show the racing world what a true great is, and God willing you will be hailed for ever as not only the greatest F1 Driver but the world’s greatest human being in sport!
Britain still needs you to stay with it. Your disgraceful defeat at Abu Dhabi will not be forgotten throughout the world of sport. But better still, to continue raises the hopes and joy of a true Motorsport genius!
John
Hello Lewis,
Seems a little better to write here, more close to an actual letter than any other limited in words message on so many possible social networks.
I was reading the many messages left here, somehow it is nice to see unknown people all over the world that are dropping kind thoughts and raise their support, without expecting even a response, maximum hoping their words may reach you. Some of them are not even your fans 🙂 but exactly about this it is – people refers to actions and decisions, not favorite. You know, there are always explanation why someone is a fan of a specific pilot, beside nationality – values to which you identify with, a specific line said at the end of a race, a look without words sometime, a pure joy of so much deserved win, or more simple things, but all have their explanation, all have a why?
Of course a lot can be said about me as an Kimi’s fan 😀 (still trying to decide if a fan have a period of validity, like pilots, now after his so natural F1 finish, but it is not about this here).
I saw that everyone resonates with you, understands you, knows how you feel, writing motivational speeches for not giving up and not let disappointment to crush you, some of them are even quotes from you. But this is not enough, isn’t it? This does not help. Because what do you feel and how deep something affects you, depends only on you, and there are time when words can not heal, kilos of messages or any kind of quotes. Disappointment is a devastated feeling, and from my experience it’s as deep as a person is and every new time it feels the same, hard, as it was at first time. With time we only change our expectation and how we look at them, it remains the same.
So first I would like to ask you: How really are you? (no answer for the world is required here).
The second part is something that maybe you can help me with. So for a while I am doing an experiment with myself to identify what is worth in this life, because people and everything around me showed me and convinced me that absolutely at all doesn’t matter if you are a correct person (at least you try hard to be), a person of word, you lead your life based on your principles, believe in good, you are honest, hard worker – because you never thought that something is deserved without hard work. And all the parts that in my childhood books were the features of a good human being. So for a while I am asking myself if nothing matters and everything around you will for sure fail your believes, why trying, why doing anything, why bother if at the end there is no difference what I feel or you feel, only matter what other discuss, decide, or say “just move over, this is life”. Why to move on? Don’t even matter if giving up or trying to live in your way, there is an entire world which always will prove you wrong.
So I am asking you, not comparing achievements or anything (nothing to compare with you actually :D, maybe my ways of enjoying life), but just want to know from someone who actually in our times have it close to all (of course if I look from outside, all deserved). Hard work, determination, the one I really would like to know how you managed – balance of mind, F1 championships, so many numbers one, always saying what is expected to say and always speaking with respect, every word and movement repeated and irreproachable, you really worked a lot for the “close to perfect package”, and yes, the important – hard, very hard work, which for sure hides a lot of compromises and others things that make us human.
At the end of an a year were most of the conclusions are based on: the already too many championships in his pocket, better car, all kind of disguised envy coming from every where, when it was forgotten your actual work from this season and that really it was the best of you. Oh I should say here – Ai ia ia ia man, Brazil – Oh my God!!! That was the race that made me say after a long time “this is how the campion looks like”. I remember for sure, like most of yours or not yours fans, why? And you as a character, mature and with a correct posture, and that pure joy all over you at the end (more speeches than that one from the end, and less women and men from factory – they already know what you thing and how grateful you are!). Ok, I should say now, that like everything in life, the most beautiful and wonderful parts of us are born from worse experience (interesting paradox I would say), so that spoiled rotten brat which still present himself as daddy’s boy and his impertinence and rudeness that becoming a new model of example for others of how you get things done, he actually in his cheeky way made you to undress the image of too many records and be what you was in Brazil. Unfortunately this changes precisely nothing.
So maybe you can, from your position – a big already written history and a fresh shameful history of interaction with so call decision people and daddy’s boys, tell me – basically nothing big or impressive in my history – How can I move on, in what to believe, from what to make a sense and purpose? What matters from now? If even when you are fair, hard worker, always following the rules and more other, nothing from this doesn’t matter, people will always find reasons to destroy a soul, isn’t it?
Can you tell a nobody, how this “move on” is done?
Regards,
V.
Hi Lewis, you are in an abusive relationship, this is at least the third title they have robbed you of. They keep telling you how much they love you while beating you up on track/off track and over the airwaves, blatantly lying, while F1 also saying it will never happen again. But what they actually mean is, “that particular scenario will not happen again, we’ll put rules in to make sure” and then set up a different piece of scumbaggery to stop you winning, and there’s millions they can chose from. Putting a car atop your head for one, no consequences, three laps in the rain (lol’s), blaming you for a crash Verstappen caused (Silverstone), Verstappen unable to make corners when only you are alongside him, allowing “Brake Testing,” when suits, the list is endless…
We all know if Abu Dhabi had been the other way around it would have finished under the safety car with all those cars still in-front of you. They can switch it anytime they like. Car No33, not hard to work out…
It’s not just the other drivers you are competing against, you are driving with one hand tied behind your back, as it’s also the referee, so any other historical comparisons are irrelevant, unless we are talking the Schumacher era, as he had the ref in his pocket also, “Ferrari International Assistance,” as you have experienced and still are, some of the same people, isn’t it..
Like said, if this injustice was not going to be put right I’m out of here, and you should be also (imo of course), it’s only going to get worse… I can’t bear to see what they do to you, so God knows how you feel…
Verstappen is nothing but another crash monkey cheat, like Schumacher, (karma, Verstappen beware). Let George deal with him, another Englishman they will no doubt abuse, just like they did Damon Hill… Whatever it is that is running F1 is toxic and insidious, they are welcome to it, suit Coulthard and those equally demented booing Verstappen fans down to the ground..
In my opinion everyone should walk away from it, but that’s where the world is now, race to the bottom, circling the drain and down the toilet without a prayer of redemption…
God Bless Lewis and all those with good hearts doing the right thing…
Good day Lewis from a F1 fan in Australia. I have been fortunate to watch F1 races in Melbourne Singapore and Malaysia and 2021 has been an exciting year to follow the sport and the last race should have been the ultimate climax between you and Max.
You were the clear winner on the day and should have been crowned the world champion and you proved your pace was far superior however an unfortunate accident a few laps from the end resulted in the safety car coming out and the race should have ended following the safety car but at the last minute the F1 officials basically made up their own rules to disadvantage you and giving Max the race.
I have watched Michael Schumacher race a few times and I didn’t envisage anyone equaling his record of 7 wins but you have and I am confident you will win your 8th championship soon. I admired the humility and class you displayed at the end and true fans know you should have won the race and championship. I look forward to seeing you race in Melbourne in 2022.
HI Lewis,
I have been following you for a number of years now on the track in F1 its so exciting to watch you show off your skills.
I really hope you decide to remain in F1 to get that 8th title, I am still trying to come to terms why the rules were changed to prevent you from winning.
I hope you come back stronger next year and demonstrate to them that the cream will always rise to the top.
Good luck for the future whatever you choose to do.
Regards
Chris
Merry Christmas Mr. Hamilton,
My name is Bobbie Knight and I am finally adjusting to the awful calls of the final race of the season which the stewards made. I am a big fan of yours which I have followed from your carting days. I am also an F1 fan since my dad and I started watching in the 1950s. I was six years old then and a daddy’s girl. We had one of those big dishes put in the back yard then. We have seen crashes of some of F1’s greatest such as Ayrton Senna, Alan Prost, Michael Schumacher, Jacques Villeneuve and Niki Lauda’s crash in that awful fire and a few others. I’m sure glad that F1 has gotten its safety better. I cringed when Max ran over your car and landed on your head. I am very proud of how you and your dad have brought so much to F1. I am now a 67 year old black lady and still loving watching your races. I was there when you won you first world championship in Mexico and the other six and will watch your eighth one this coming season. So Red Bull and Max Verstoppen got away with one this year and he has one world championship but Lewis Hamilton is the G.O.A.T. See you soon, I’ll be watching.
Bobbie Knight
Denver, Colorado
Dear Lewis.
Today, for the fist time since Abu Dhabi, the injustice of that happened is not the first thing I think of when I wake up. I must be slowly healing but I still feel like rejecting the whole crazy F1 world next year and never watching again! However, it would leave such a big hole in my life that it’s a dilemma. The one thing that would keep me in would be your return. Whatever you decide is OK with me but I do so hope that you come back.
All the best Len
Caros Amigos,
Tentei entrar em contato com a Rainha Elizabeth e com o parlamento Britânico, mas sem sucesso.
Vocês que tem mais contato, e informações, gostaria que transmitisse o que eu sinto no momento.
Deve-se, chegar ao Parlamento Inglês, quanto ao campeonato de F1(Fórmula 1) acontecido depois de, no Brasil, quantos as imperfeições que a FIA não considerou quanto ao piloto L. Hamilton.
Deve-se, informar a Rainha e ao Parlamento, quanto ao arbítrio da FIA.
Os erros cometidos em pistas devem serem julgados…não podemos deixar que L. Hamilton seja obviamente o Campeão da F! 2021.
Agradecidos!
I’ve been watching Formula One races since i was 12 (when Alain Prost won his first GP). For 40 years now i’ve been watching FIA taking all kind of decisions, but until this last GP, i had forgotten that very often, decisions are taken for the show and not for the sport. I suppose i won’t forgot ever again, now… If Alain Prost retired after his 4th title, that was mostly because of FIA decisions against him… and i think that he should have kept driving. Please dont retire, Lewis. You are greater than the guys that rules Formula One, and the smartest way to prove it is to keep being yourself and amaze us again and again.
I noticed that each time you managed to win over Verstappen, you built your victory with patience, talent and obstinacy. Those are true champion qualities, and you have them at a high lever, witch makes you so inspiring. Verstappen fan’s like hime because he is young, aggressive, and also because they like so see new drivers winning the championship. I appreciate you because you are a much cleaner driver than him, able to win even when all odds are against you. He still have to learn how to do that, I hope you’ll keep showing us !!
SIR Lewis Hamilton.
I hope that you are able to rise above this injustice & return if for only 1 more season.
You don’t have anything to prove to anyone, no doubt the inconsistencies’ within the sport have left a very negative taste…however, you are Lewis Hamilton…sorry, SIR Lewis Hamilton…despite the ignorance & spinelessness of some so called leaders within F1…you are the real success behind the F1 circus, the ordinary guy who stole the hearts of millions, made ordinary folk stand up & watch F1, you have brought the desire home to many young kids who realise a dream is achievable, you proved you don’t have to be born into this circus to succeed!!
If I were in your shoe’s I would be back with a vengence in 2022 and kick Red Bull in the face by winning your 8th win.
Best of luck.:-)

PPS: I would in your shoes just come back in 2022 and just smack Red Bull in the face by winning the championship next year and get your 8th win and prove that brains wins over brawn.
Good Luck.
Champion, in 1989 in Japan Prost hit Ayrton Senna. Senna came back and won the race but was disqualified and Prost was world champion. But Senna came back the following year and got 2 world championships. You are a GREAT champion, heir to Ayrton Senna
Dear Lewis
I am Italian and with my French wife, we appreciate a lot your performance. Thanks a lot . We admire also your sportsmanship about this last Abu Dabhi’s decision …..Please, continue F1 race….
Best wishes
Alberto
Coraggio Lewis!!
Keep going Lewis, you have a wrong to put right my friend!! ..such a great career can’t end like the season finale did…
Unbelievable season, ruined only by inconsistent race decisions & the end, well I simply put this down to a spineless race director, clearly influenced by CH..RB has noticed this & will try to stop the certain contact..
I hope that you are able to rise above this injustice & return if for only 1 more season.
You don’t have anything to prove to anyone, no doubt the inconsistencies’ within the sport have left a very negative taste…however, you are Lewis Hamilton…sorry, SIR Lewis Hamilton…despite the ignorance & spinelessness of some so called leaders within F1…you are the real success behind the F1 circus, the ordinary guy who stole the hearts of millions, made ordinary folk stand up & watch F1, you have brought the desire home to many young kids who realise a dream is achievable, you proved you don’t have to be born into this circus to succeed!!
Still I Rise (SIR) LEWIS HAMILTON…the Greatest F1 driver of all time!!
Hey Hamilton. As a fan that only joined F1 since last year, I have to say, you are a legend. I’m your fan, since the moment I started watching F1. You are my inspiration, my everything. It wasn’t good for any of us that day in Abu Dhabi, when your 8th championship was being robbed my Masi, me and my friends and my family all felt bad for you. So, heres a message for me. Keep it up the good personality and we believe you can get your 8th, then 9th, then 10 and maybe more. Thank you, for all the hard work.
(Sorry for my bad english. It’s not my first-language)
-JJ, friends and family
DO NOT RETIRE, dont you dare,come out fighting next year and stick it to redbull,vast and the FIA
TOTO QUOTE
However, he is right saying “We decided together that we would protest and wanted to carefully consider a possible appeal,” and decided together not to do this. That shows the maturity [unlike Horner] and respect to the sports as it is already dragged into the place[?] and need recovery time from the backlash.
THE LAW POSSIBILITIES
To be honest, this time Sir Lewis Hamilton has nothing to say in this matter when it comes to company decisions. The F1 has breach their own general conditions. Mercedes is his employer. We need to see this from a juridical point of view. Meaning that the F1 did not follow the rules of engagements. So the fact that FIA and F1 are their own judges and their stewards and their director made their own choice and changed the rules. Made this for Mercedes the possibility to sue them outside the structure of the FIA. Meaning bringing them to the French Court because they are based in Paris and bring in the CAS to be witness in this situation. Because only an outsider would have a neutral view in the judgement because of the possibilities of conflict of interest. This is the base that Toto and the solicitor and Mercedes needed to say. The first rule of law that you learn at solicitor school of Oxford.
SUE
Another thing, do not forget that selling sport tickets comes under consumer rights and Cheating/Robbing or misleading the consumer is against the law. In the United States, the F1 investors would be sued for millions of money and would need to pay for misleading, manipulations of the viewers and consumers that were present at the field of F1. We the consumers could with an American sue Netflix and the F1 and Liberty in the USA for misleading the consumers and win it. So solicitors, where are you now? This would bring big money. The Lewis Hamilton team and the real F1 Fans would support you.
I said the FIA would do this, and they did, left it to the last few laps, but they managed it. I stopped watching F1 in the Schumacher era for two years because of all the cheating by Schumacher and the FIA, now we have a return of those days…What they did the Damon Hill was beyond the pale, much like this, Beyond The Pale!!!…
If Mercedes do not appeal and win, i am done… If Lewis quits, i don’t blame him as it will just be more of the same and they will crucify him going forward. The hate and anti Lewis bias emanating from the media alone is horrendous already, they do not care, they will fix all mediums from all angles, and those that know no better, never will, it’s how they operate….
Lewis is now down three championships because of these cheating (being polite) “officials.” Also, they don’t hate him because he is “black,” it’s far worse than that, he’s committed the most egregious crime of all, and that is being English. Just ask the Scot Coulthard, watch his coverage from Silverstone, especially the post race chat with Horner, bet the incriminating evidence disappears……
God Bless Lewis, those of us that remember, know and will carry it forward..
First, Horner & Marco are feeling the heat from the public opinion, special from the investors outside Liberty F1, Netflix & Red Bulls because of the cheat move with their protégé. Right away the Red Bull spinning, social media is used to change the opinions of the Sheeple’s by spinning Marco and his Red Bull Social Media Platform (one of the best in the world). But what they did forget was that the real F1 fans, I am not talking about the hired social media fake news bots of Red Bull and the Sir Lewis Hamilton and Max Verstappen fans, but the real F1 cars fans just do not accept this kind of BS. Cheating is cheating, changing the rules for a social media opinion is unfair, period, we are not in China with a social control system. We have fought for a thousand years in Europe to ban these kinds of oppression. Liberty F1, Netflix & Red Bulls destroyed a sitting for the television Sunday family sport. Just look at the article of Express about Jos Verstappen of how Sir Lewis and his father respected the win of Max Verstappen. Sir Lewis Hamilton is the one that did not say anything in all this mind games. He stayed a gentleman, got knighted and even then to see Eccleston saying that he did not deserve to be knighted show that deep down racism in 2021 is still a part of our education system or someone really must hate Sir Lewis Hamilton for being that good in your sport. If Eccleston could crown himself to king, he would grab that title and give it to Max Verstappen. Did we think that it was boring that Mike Tyson knocked all his opponents in 1 or 2 round and cashed in 20,000,000 dollars? Maybe that is the problem, he just is too perfect for mix English child. I leave you with a quote of Frederick Douglass, I would unite with anybody that do right and nobody to do wrong.
Hi Lewis,
Just wanted to tell you how disappointed I was in the last race. I like to see the best driver win based on driving, car performance and strategy. That didn’t happen in the last race. Race result should not be determined on the whims and inconsistencies of race control. Formula 1 rules and enforcement of said rules have become nothing short of bizarre this year and in recent years. It was only a matter of time before this nonsense had a major consequence. I am so sorry you were the victim.
I know you are probably very discouraged at the moment, but the best revenge is winning. I hope you decide to come back next year and get your 8th title. I believe you are the greatest F1 driver in history.
With an 8th title, it could not be disputed.
ken
Hi Lewis,
my heart broke for you the moment you realized the title had been manipulated out of your reach. It was cowardly and corrupt of the FIA to do so, but you’ve over come adversity your entire life, your business in the sport is not yet finished! There is so much more that can still be done and no one is leading the line for equality within the sport more than you, please don’t let this stop you doing what you love and what you set out to do. Go and take the title, the record and the legacy! But most importantly set the record straight with a smile on your face.
Yours sincerely
Tom
Hi Lewis
Hope you have a good Christmas and are able to come to terms with the farce that ruined this year’s championship. It brought F1 into disrepute and such behaviour should not be tolerated again. I would love to see you bring home the championship again next year but I would fully understand if you walked away. I am very close to turning my back on F1 after many many years as a fan.
Cheers
Vic Buckley
Querido Lewis, tú ganaste tu octavo campeonato el pasado domingo. Todo el mundo lo vio. Te fue arrebatado por la decisión de un hombre blanco, racista, Michael Masi. Tú has sido “una piedra en el zapato” desde el primer día, cuando asombraste al mundo debutando y corriendo de igual a igual ante Fernando Alonso. Hoy el “negocio de la F1” no te quiere porque te convertiste en un luchador por causas altruistas. Hace tiempo que no eres invisible. Pusiste sobre la mesa un tema difícil como el RACISMO, y eso enfada a una FIA xenófoba y clasista que solo ha dado lugar a europeos y rara vez a latinos, negros o asiáticos. No hace falta que corras en 2022. Lo lamentaré porque dejaré de ver este “circo romano de fraude y vergüenza” en el que se ha convertido la F1. Ya no estarás, y no tendrá sentido darle audiencia a un espectáculo MANIPULADO por delincuentes. Un abrazo. Lástima que no te haya conocido personalmente. Me habría gustado mucho.
Hi Lewis, I want to be sincer from beginning. I’m not your supporter, I’m a Ferrari one. Michael Schumacher makes my to jump on the sofà in the past.
I heard about your farewell possibility, but I think a multiple world champion like you can’t stop his carreer like this. You have demonstrate your mind strenght, and it can’t be brake from any kind of defeat, nor like the last one. You are carring on your purpose to be a sample of the importance to fight with everything in life to reach own targets.
What would people think if you would give up now?
You told few gp ago, “It’s not over man!” and you kept fighting till the last checked flag at abu dhabi.
So my friend, I tell you this time, “It’s not over!”. Start training harder than before, motivate all people around you and prepare for next challenge, because to win a war everyone has to accept also to lose some battles.
Waiting to see you soon, be stronger than before!
Good life, Gianluca
Italy
Dear Lewis,
what happened last Sunday was a scam, a robbery, if we want to be good and not think badly we can imagine that was only incompetence, if instead we wanted to think badly it could be assumed that Red Bull has an employee among the judges …
so why not make some gadgets like “for me Lewis Hamilton Worl Champion 2021” t-shirts and caps that your fans could wear at the next grand prixs to remind the FIA of their outrageous behavior? I know it would not change the situation but at least this “crime” would continue to be remembered and seen by everyone in the world
regards
Ubaldo
Many, many congratulations on your well deserved knighthood. As far as I am concerned you won the race and your 8th world title. I cannot think of another sport where such a ludicrous situation could happen. F1 no longer deserves any respect.
David croft said it best the FIA need changes asap. Lewis don’t give up you definitely going to get 8th title.
Dear Lewis,
You are the GOAT. Always have that in mind. We are so proud of you.
You are our TRUE Champion. Take some rest and we are sure that you will be back stronger. Too many weird things did happen over the last few days.
You have been robbed and it’s really unfair and unacceptable.
Thank you so much for that wonderful season and see you next year.
God bless you.
Dear Sports world,
First I would like to ask you before entering into conversation about Sir Lewis Hamilton and Max Verstappen to ask you to help us to give back Lance Armstrong – https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lance_Armstrong the rewards back that has been taken from him because he used steroids.
I know it was wrong from Lance Armstrong to use steroids but like you said “rules are rules” at the time that Lance Armstrong won the Trophy’s of the Tour de France there was no one better than him, so it would be wrong to take his price from him and the same time he deserved it to win because he was the all Tour de France so strong, he deserved it. In stead, I ask you to make the system better so that this will not happen again. Of course, this is a point that we need to think about it.
The FIA together with their money are trying to make this a racial thing so that the real problem of cheating does not be handled the right way. FIA and F1 together with their investors made a huge mistake by mixing the real sports with Netflix entertainment.
But what they forgot is the following. Sports = A Poor men entertainment. It is the way the poor man forget is troubles. It is the way of the poor man, loves to dream. Not only that, but it is the way out for the poor man to flee poverty and depression. Look at football, of how the investors wanted to create a super league to earn more money.
The fans came up and fought the right that all clubs could compete, even against the bigger financial clubs. Why is that? Because sport is real, sports is cruel, but sport is also rewarding. The unexpected can happen. Being a common man, coming from a (Gypsy family) and becoming the best boxer in the world like Tyson Fury. Being football team winning Champions League like Nottingham Forest in 1978/79.
But also the lost of The Dutch team in 1974 with Johan Cruyff being the best player at the time of the world and having dominating the football game till end but lost in the finals from the Germans, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1974_FIFA_World_Cup_Final.
Johan Cruyff was the Mesi of PSG of today. Did he deserve to win the world cup of the Germans at that time? Of course, but at the end sport was so cruel that at the end Johan Cruyff lost the world cup and never came at that position again, but the game was fair, no Netflix. That is the hate and love of the game because that is real, real, like the poor man life. Because look at your child when you do not have money to buy your children’s food or can not pay your rent or school food for them. That is sport for the poor man, a way out. But now the trust of sporters are gone destroyed by the manipulation of Hollywood and Netflix, a daughter company from mother company of F1. The only way to destroy their manipulation is in their pocket. Make the investors of these companies pay for it by bringing down their shares.
Max and the Red Bull team knew that they had lost the race. Because Max and Horner could calculate with their AI Algorithm that Max could not win, and could not do anything about that than accept defeat. Eleven seconds behind and 6 cars between them. Look at the cars that were in the top 5, those were only Red Bull sisters and Honda brand and FIA organizer Ferrari. If the race was really fair, they should have told Red Bull and the rest of the cars that they needed to respect the 11 seconds delay on Sir Lewis Hamilton and if you look at the finishing of the cars you see that Red Bull was only +0.2 faster than Sir Lewis Hamilton minus 11 seconds is what? Nine seconds in advantage of Sir Lewis Hamilton.
Of Course, Max deserved to win like Lewis deserved to win too, but the real sport would have been cruel to Max and Max would have lost. That is why he was crying in his trailer with his father comforting him on his knee when Lewis father came to congratulate them (Max Verstappen knew he had lost beause he is also honest to himself, but the F1 had protected their Favourite, their Michael Schumacher). Even Jos Verstappen Max Vestappen his father told the press I was already going because I knew Max Verstappen would not win. Now F1 + Netflix is giving him a script what to say together with Netflix, but the real fans of F1 can see that is acting (I am not talking about of Sir Lewis Hamilton fans or Max Verstappen, Marco spinning Red Bull fans but the real poor men F1 fans, the real F1 Sports cars fan).
And yes even Toto is a bad actor (No acting please, the book goes good with him). The only good person in this story is his wife that told the truth that was right away changed by F1 Media on social media by her husband because of threat and blackmail.
Why, nobody is asking themselves why suddenly a former driver of Abu Dhabi is now the new president of the FIA and is threatening Sir Lewis Hamilton? Something what those power mafia organizations are good in, do not forget that if the new director of F1 will kill Sir Mewis Hamilton in accident than has Toto, Horner and Eccleston clean their hands. That is why Harry is protection Sir Lewis Hamilton has a friend.
Eccleston, Toto and Horner starting talking about saying not breaking Michael Schumacher record, even Michael saying I do not mind that my record would be broken by Lewis. And Eccleston saying I do not understand why Lewis is knighted, he has not done nothing for his country. Ask Eccleston to give that one Billion ponds back and stop running behind 33 years females on the age of 91 it sounds like he has a pizza problem there. It is just Bias to say what he said about Sir Lewis Hamilton period and has nothing to do with F1 sport but all to do with personal hate against Niki Lauda that kicked Eccleston out of the F1 power and the personal hate against the protégé of Niki Lauda, Sir Lewis Hamilton.
And for the rest of the majority of the F1 camp you have driver’s hate and jealousy against Sir Lewis Hamilton. Like Max Verstappen said, I hated Lewis when I looked in his eyes. Hate goes hand in hand with jealousy. Look at all the theater play scripts made by Shakespeare. The difference between Eccleston and Sir Lewis Hamilton is that Sir Lewis Hamilton got Sir in front of his name, and Mr. Eccleston got sir and the end of it’s back.
Even when you hear on the radio saying Carlos Sainz I will stay behind the safety car because otherwise this will be unfair and there will be some driver that will have advantage of this. He was the only one that did say the thruth and did not know about the three major collaborators working together.
Toto giving the go deal (in the press conference by shaking hands with Horner during the press conference) by accepting the offer of Horner, saying we will lose the car price by pulling Pérez back, and you give us the championship to Max Verstappen. Sir Lewis Hamilton saying to Mercedes (shall I Box, Negative Lewis) Knowing that Lewis could win from Max Verstappen on hard, He’s done it once, at the beginning of the race and he could do it again).
Then giving Masi codes, No Masi, Masi No, No Masi. The real language meaning Masi no = Masi Go, No, No, Masi = Go, Go Masi. Masi It is called a race. What = que in Austrian Meaning, OK, meaning yes, it is racing time. No worry, Ok, it is taken care.Understood, but when the shares started to fall down of Merceds, Honda and F1 because the fans knew it sticks, then Mercedes and Toto came with the story of honour and being behind Sir Lewis Hamilton. He did not expect the F1 fans to react against this all.
What Toto also did not expected was Sir Lewis Hamilton to dominate the game. He was afraid that he would lose the car reward that he made the deal with Red Bull, that is why Horner shouted out that he do not need to forget that he won the car reward and that is the real money in the press. That is the real reason that Toto retreated the case because Horner would spill on him in court that they had made a deal that Mercedes would take the car prize, and they would get the price for the best driver. That is why Max Verstappen before the race got an SMS in advance saying do not worry you have won, saying we keep our agreement because the old boss of Mercedes asked them to do that. Like Marko said to the press about losing the car price, we do not care about the car price, we are not a car builder, we go for the driver price, that is why they used perez for pressure and ask Perez to box when Toto said No Masi, the deal was accepted. You could also clear follow that Latifi was practising how to park the car in the wall. And when he started to take to long in practise Raikkonen showed how to do it and were.
Bottas the partner of Sir Lewis Hamilton being 7P. Really, are you kidding me? Perez the partner of Max Verstappen being years in the game not winning, nothing suddenly being a legend (being P2, P3 with the patent products of Mercedes build by Honda OEM factory producers) and Bottas with the rocket car of Mercedes not even being P3 or P4 or P5 but being P7 or P9 when Sir Lewis Hamilton needed him. Always at the important moments, you got to be kidding if you could not see through this. Bottas feeling that Sir Lewis Hamilton was the one to be blamed because was asked to leave Mercedes. At the same time Horner helped Bottas to be accepted to get back in the game in a new team Bottas owed Horner one. It is a shame to see Toto partying on the same night that all this has happened to Sir Lewis Hamilton. Understand this that a lot of people had large sum of bets at the bookies on Max Verstappen and that the Bookies mafia would never let Sir Lewis Hamilton win and lose their money against Max Verstappen. They all were betting for Max Verstappen.
Then you have Pérez be called in for error of his car, with his car getting a virtual safety car call in. Why?, to slow down the game, and second questions his did someone measure how much fuel he had in the car during the dangerous fight against Sir Lewis Hamilton. I bet nobody tested that? The car was so light talmost without fuel that he was flying all over Sir Lewis Hamilton, Perez the Legend. What was his assignment by Marco? Pérez make him crash, if possible. That even Perez so impressed by Sir Lewis Hamilton that he apologize to Sir Lewis Hamilton. Like the assignment of Max Verstappen at the beginning of the race, crash when you can, where he came together with Sir Lewis Hamilton.
So now they have fired an old F1 president (get rid of the witnesses, in case of a research by the cas) that would going to stop any way to replace the old F1 President with an even bigger corrupted one that helped organized this all in Abu Dhabi for the function of the new F1 president.
In my opinion Sir Lewis Hamilton should stop at once, not sign again with Mercedes but walk away. He won the 8 title of F1, he broke the record of Michael Schumacher. The all world have seen that and the only mistake he did during that race is trusting the company and the people around him that are saying that they understand his pain.
It is 15 years no family, traveling and working day in and day out fighting to break the record of the greatest driver of all time. And at the moment you succed that some jurks steal it from you because of backrooms deals. You can not and do not understand his pain and Toto saying that losing the title is not the end of the world because there are far worse things in the world, why did you pick up your price in Paris then Toto, there worse thing in the world if you would not take the price or did you need the money? Just follow th emoney and will find out why?
You could made a point by not accepting the constructor price in Paris do not forget that picking up the price is not important because there are far more important things in the world. If the F1 and the FIA and the CAS would be honost they would like Lence Armstrong saying guys this is not good this is cheating no matter how you want to sweat talk this you need to give the price back to Sir Lewis Hamilton but asking Lewis Hamilton to take the responsibity for your work Toto and putting him in a position that when he goes to court and wins saying that he was a sour looser and can only win in court and with that destroying his life achivement. Also saying that SIr Lewis Hamilton was also involved in decision making he putting the responsibility on your driver that showed to world together with his father how to behave in a match even if the people around you steal your price. I can tell to you the real F1 Fans and I am not talking about SIr Lewis Hamilton or Max Verstappen Fanbase. I am talking with the real race fans. If this was Sir Lewis Hamilton that had done this Max Verstappen and Jos Verstappen would kill and the Hamiltons and put all the compound on fire and the price would be switched in a second.
From false mainupation saying that it was the Mercedes car doing the work to now saying that his a legend and one of the best driver that has ever been is day and night. Maybe SIr Lewis Hamilton has some comfort in this because now people know that it was not the car that drived itself and that he did not drive the car with his arms crossed but that he is really has good as Michael Schumacher or maybe a little bit better because of his area, do not forget that we are not racing anymore in the time of the romans with horses.
You could call Michael Schumacher alot of things but he was never a coward and spoke for justice. If Michael Schumacher would be there in his 100% physical conditions he would not be affraid to aknowledge Sir Lewis Hamilton for his talents as the best driver ever in this area and to speak about this situation and that goes for Niki Lauda. He would never ever accepted what had happend to Sir Lewis Hamilton. He loves hard driving but when you won and out smarted him than he could appreciated that even if was pissed about it but he would never accepted cheating. He was to proud for that.
Michael Schumacher always said his world records were made to be broken. If it was not for Michael Schumacher protecting Sir Lewis Hamilton breaking his record, Sir Lewis Hamilton would be that black young child standing next to the fence dreaming that one day he would become a racer like him. We all have our heros even the cowards of F1 that are afraid to speak and I am not talking about the F1 responsibles but also of the drivers that keep their mouth shut because they are affraid or loosing their spot. What would you do if that was you F1 drivers?
My advice to Sir Lewis Hamilton is the following. I know that this is your decision but you do not have nothing to proof anymore you broke the 8th record and all the world saw this happen but the F1 took it from you because it is there bussiness they are the shareholders and you are just an employer. Understand your position.
You are now fighting against the F1 machine that transformd the race sunday from sport to entertaiment, together with the coward press the talking heads that are following the money. You can not trust the F1, the people in the sport you love, the sport you build up by bringing the artist in the game ( the same artist that are paid by Netflix and are affraid to open their mouth, Hey Spike Lee were are you now supporting your brother from the other mother and this goes for all the rest of the artist that are slave of Netflix.
I would advice to start a new lifestyle stop racing with F1. You can put the energy that you have in fashion with the right people and good adviser, private banking, notary and solicitor to build your own business. You got enough money to rebuild a new business live and a new future. I just do not want to see you being destroyed like Tiger Woods because you just do not deserve this.
The F1 will protect Max Verstappen (special the new president of F1) just to make the point that he is the new Michael Schumacher. Remember without you no resistent for Max Verstappen no dualisme. Whithout you they need to make a new show. Let your generation stop with you having respect for all what you have done for F1 because they do not have at all respect for what you have done for the sport (otherwise that would not plan this), do like Jay-Z have done with Cristal Champagne, start your own race business in an other field. And again people that will play in the letter with the BLM card or Racial card issues I want to say the following this letter has nothing do with black, white or colour but with the colour Green, follow the money. What ever your choice you make Sir Lewis Hamilton I am standing with you and all the ones that suffer injustice in the world no mather their country, gender, race, colour, religion or financial value.
Sport is sport, Sport is hard but Sport is also soft, Sport is also rewarding Sport is also a way out for the poor men life in all of his form, look at your past Sir Lewis Hamilton. Sport was is the Roman time the way to get rich and famous and to escape slavery and when you take that away with money and cheating than sport looses his porpose and has no value any more and looses the interest of the common men. Let the conscious be with you to guide you in this moment of your live with wisdom, Sir Lewis Hamilton.
F1 NEEDS LEWIS HAMILTON/LEWIS HAMILTON DOES NOT NEED F1!!!!!!!!
Hello Sir Lewis, congratulations on receiving this incredible honour.
Appalled about what happened more because the unjust intervention of the referee for sure his comments at the beginning of the safety car period was the race would end under the safety car but then he changed it to get one lap in, which by that point you had no chance with the car behind you that was like a car set up for qualifying i.e. brand new tyres & low fuel tank, its also a joke in F1 that if you are in the lead you will lose out more times than not if you went in the pits to change tyres.
I was also really disappointed with what Bernie has said in the papers that why Is Lewis being knighted what has he done. Says it all really F1 discriminates against people of colour, lets face it if Max was in the lead, the race would have ended under the safety car. I cannot watch F1 again after this, I shall be watching the Indy Car Series from now on.
As I said at the beginning F1 needs Lewis Hamilton, Lewis Hamilton does not need F1 & the Mercedes team should also leave F1, there is nothing else to prove job done.
I think Lewis & Mercedes should go race in the Indy Car Series & go try & win the coveted Indy 500 how amazing would that be & then from there go to Le Mans & go for the Triple Crown of motorsport, what an amazing finale to Lewis’s career that would be!!!
What a tragedy for F1 if it has lost it’s greatest driver!
30 years ago, I hoped to be coached by Cisero Murphy. He was the greatest US pool player for almost a decade in the 60s, but being black, was barred from the World Championship for years, and when he was finally allowed to compete, became the only player to win the word title at his first attempt. This was the determination of a true legend!
Lewis was plainly robbed, by a decision that set aside all conventions, and was quite plainly engineered to hand victory to his opponent. Whatever the motivation, it was a sham final lap, and a profound embarrassment. One wonders if F1 has just accelerated its demise.
On the one hand, I would love LH to find the grace, grit and determination to battle back and win next year, and claim his position as most successful of all time. On the other, he has already made an indelible mark, and perhaps withdrawing, to highlight the obvious fix, would strike a greater blow in support of fair competition.
Hi Lewis
I hope there will be some more titles for Mercedes and you.
Merry Christmas
– Filip, 11 years old from Sweden
Keep writing history Sir Lewis.
You are a Lion remember that.
Love you bro,
Elias Hanna from Canada
Hi Sir Lewis, Like so many I was truly appalled by the actions of the race director on Sunday, that was in now way in accordance with the sporting code or rules of formula 1. (he should do the honorable thing as his position is untenable!). I have huge admiration for the way you conducted yourself as a sportsman in such circumstances, you are a true ambassador for your sport and your country and an incredable driver and human being. You should now hold 8 world titles, so go take it back next year mate ! Wishing you and your family a Happy Christmas and New Year. And remember my friend ‘Still We Rise’. Unfinished business for certain, and congratulations on your Knighthood.
Keep safe and come back strong!
Hi Lewis
I hope that you are ok,
Firstly im not sure why previous posting has been removed.
I am so very disappointed that Mercedes are not now going to appeal.
After following you for most of your career through every twist and turn it seems.
Now that the rule book has been effectively torn up and that the new style of race craft seems to be the way forward I’m not sure its for me anymore.
I certainly could not stomach watching Red Bulls so called number one win another race.
I will always be a committed fan of yours and in my eyes you did win the race and number 8
Very Best wishes
Adrian Hobbs
Dear Lewis, hope this message reaches you well, perhaps you as a sportsman review results of racing as the best sportsman in that discipline, what I found amazing is that I came to highly appreciate you as a man, human being on this planet, standing for many more interests than we ever knew. This proofs perhaps on the contrary that you are a fine example that will live, and show us, how hard life is, remain Lewis Hamilton, a deep bow for you as the the fastest role model of us all
Dear Mr. Hamilton,
I decided to leave a message in light of the conclusion of the 2021 Championship. Not really as a fan, but as a follower of Formula One casually. There are a lot of comments and media opinions on what transpired, and it makes no sense to repeat any.
The year was very exciting, almost no races were dull to watch. While it may be just as difficult to drive perfectly for an hour leading the race it is not that much fun for viewers. You probably have realized that You are the one the other 19 aims to defeat on the track, not just as the previous Champion, but as the benchmark. Yours is a lot more difficult position for sure. And still you persevere.
No doubt you have asked yourself why you are racing. My belief is that the cockpit is the place where you can extend your talents to the maximum. Where you reach that thin golden line of your personal limits, which may be only measured against others of the highest skill. That feeling of happiness is what must make you race.
We are looking forward the next season. After a deserved rest, you should too. It will be fun.
Best regards,
Peter
Hi Lewis, congratulations on becoming a Knight of the Realm. Your and your father’s conduct after the farcical end to the race in Abu Dhabi, was exactly the kind of behaviour a true great warrior would show. You are the greatest example of honourable behaviour, fantastic skill and bravery that this United Kingdom has ever produced. Your fight for equality and fairness must continue, this will be very difficult but, you have to win this, fight for the truth as hard as you have fought on track. It ihas been my honour to have watched you become the greatest champion the World has ever seen. Keep fighting the the good fight.
The world needs MANY more people like you.
Stay true!
Best wishes,
Louise
As a new F1 fan I am relatively ignorant of the rules and the sport’s history. However it was clear that you were not treated fairly at the end of this last race. I am now doubting whether it is worth my time to follow F1 in the future. However, I will forever be impressed with how you demonstrated the grace and character of a true champion. That impresses me more than your “eight championships.” Max is a little too young to appreciate that his was a hollow victory and that in defeat you are elevated even higher in the eyes of many. Best wishes to you in your future endeavors. Your actions transcended sport.
Dear Lewis. My name is David. I am writing this letter to reach you and ask something little and different, but HUGE for me. My girlfriend called Viola is a big fan of you and I have her Christmas gifts wrapped and one of it is your book, but to make it greater all I ask you to write in reply Merry Christmas Viola and Happy Holidays, something warm for her. She would be sooo happy and would mean a lot to me. It would be fine to type this little sentence anytime you have 10 seconds and I would show her this little message on Christmas day. 🙂 Thank you Sir, congratulation for your title. I wish you all the best and hoping this text will reach you. Your sincerely.
It doesn’t matter Lewis
This season was lost but …
Do not forget it but archive it and put it aside …
Get ready for next season
You are a hero, a great hero
Do not leave the battlefield
show who you are
show that you have a great soul
stay
Race
Win
Be immortal
This is your roadmap
you are the best
Your eternal friend, Masoud
The greatest of all time – and not just on the race track. GOAT
Hi Lewis
A better man than me once said “The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy “. My heart broke for you when I witnessed what happened at the end of the race on Sunday. It then soared when I saw how you dealt with it and carried yourself, you are a true inspiration and a amazing sportsman. I will always remember that day not because of the crowning of a new F1 champion but for the amazing dignity, integrity and grace shown by you Lewis.
Max is a dirty desperate driver, if he is allowed to get away with what he does (brake testing, to say the least, come on), with the FIA and the Media in his pocket, he will be untouchable, literally, like Schumacher was, taking Damon out like that was beyond the pale and just the tip of the iceberg….
I saw a bit of the Red Bull employees (Coulthard) interview on BBC last night procrastinating about how distasteful and not good for the sport the protesting of decisions by the FIA is. When at Silverstone he was the one that would not stop going on about giving Lewis a penalty for Maxi cutting Lewis up and taking himself off the track. Coulthard did his damnedest to get Lewis a penalty..
Eventually the stewards decide that Lewis should have a penalty (i wonder hwy?) for what Crashtappen did, but Coulthard was not happy with that either as Lewis still won the race
The CH4F1 interview with Horner post the race, Coulthard was encouraging Horner to take the penalty decision further as it wasn’t enough in his eyes, as Lewis still won the race..You could see Horner hadn’t even thought about it…
Yet here we are, Coulthard goes on the BBC for all the world to see spouting his twisted when suits poison…
Mercedes and Lewis should take these bastards all the way, they cheated him out of another championship (it’s a biggy, for many reasons), show no mercy, these xxxxxx’s understand nothing else and deserve nothing less…
And yes, you are a Wonderful Gracious Champion a proud Englishman and human being, but don’t let them sucker you into doing nothing about them as they appeal to your softer side, buttering you up… You’ll be doing it for us also….
God Bless Lewis, and all concerned, have a great break and am watching this space…….
Hi Lewis,
just wanted to say how proud i was to call myself a fan of yours on Sunday, i was absolutely devastated with what happened, probably the most angry i have ever been watching a sporting event but the way you came out and handled the situation was an absolute credit to you, your family and all your fans all over the world.
I have no idea if you will receive this or read it but if you do, come back stronger next year and let’s win this 8th championship and make history.
Have a good Christmas mate.
I’m sorry it’s just my opinion,
but one person should not have that kind of decision making power in such a crucial moment of a race.
It notifies both Lewis’s and Mercedes hard work that they invested for the whole year. They never wanted Lewis to surpass Michael’s record,
but guess what, he will be back next season with all he’s supporting fans! You’re Class Act Lewis, and we love you!!!
Sincerely
Marcello R
Hi Lewis. We love you. Stay strong. I wish I have the words to explain this to myself so I can’t begin to imagine what you are going through. My mom used to talk about Senna a lot when she made me watch F1 in canada for the first time. The system he was fighting and loved that you brought it up in an interview this year. My mom is Brazilian so she loved Ayrton very much but when he died she turned off the TV and she didn’t watch F1 anymore. Everything she told me with the heart of Ayrton in racing just reminds me of you and in Brazil this year when you won and the crowd chanting Senna gave me goosebumps. The only time I went to a race I saw you win in 2012. I didn’t understand the sport back then very much. I am an immigrant in Montreal so I am kind of an outsider and I remember rooting for you because everyone was white on the grid that year and You were the only Black man up there and I hate to say it but you were kind of an outsider. I started following your journey from then and you brought me so much joy watching you Bahrein 2016 Sao Paulo this year. Singapore 2018 and for sure Canada 2012. I feel terrible of what happened to you yesterday and the only thing I can tell you is that I love you. You are an inspiration. My teacher once said giving friendship to a man that needs love is the worst thing ever. I don’t remember exactly what he said but just focus on the love and family that are behind you. You are the only man I agree to say he is an inspiration for me right after my dad of course. I don’t have the same talents as you but your achievements made me fight to become a muslim soldier in the Canadian army and I have been fighting to make that happen so much but still I rise is something engraved in my head now. Still I rise when times are difficult and our life as a family isn’t easy at all. You may never see this and rightfully so but We love you. So happy your head was still raised up high in defeat. YOU DESERVE EVERYTHING YOU ACHIEVED AND MORE.

The strange behavior of Nicolas Lafiti in Abu Dhabi already in training
I have to say that Nicolas Lafiti is trained to skid the car by turning the front wheels against a turn and braking. https://www.formula1.com/en/latest/video.2021-abu-dhabi-gp-fp2-latifi-damages-his-wing-in-crash-at-yas-marina.1718766993036650492.html
I don’t know if he was just trying to maneuver here or he wanted to know how far he had to be from the barrier to crash into it. In the race itself, he did what he trained. Let’s ask ourselves who benefited from this? Frank Williams turns in his grave.
Best regards
I’d like to add my thanks to all the others for the sportsmanship that you showed yesterday. It set a wonderful example to everyone watching, especially youngsters, on how to respond to adversity and, on this occasion, unfairness with dignity.
It reflected very well on you and your proud fellow countrymen are also basking in reflected glory.
Thank you.
You didn’t deserve what happened at the race. It was cruel. And it made F1 look amateurish. You had the race won and there was no justification for manufacturing a one lap “race” – clearly a mismatch between tyres. MM ad hoc decision handed the win to Max – there was no “race” other than we had just seen over 56 laps which you dominated as the better driver in the better car. Max was nowhere.
The way you kept your composure was incredible and respectful. Keep the faith and rise again. Still the champion.
I started watching F1 about 6 years ago and immediately I knew I wasn’t a Mercedes fan or a fan of you. I am generally not a fan of sports dynasties and you were just too dominate for my liking. This year as a fan I was rooting very hard for Max to win the Championship just to finally see someone else have a chance. I can’t say I wasn’t excited to see Max win yesterday, but I was shocked to see how much respect I gained for you as a person. Even in a heart wrenching loss, you were civil, congratulatory, sincere, respectful and real. I’ve rarely seen such a competitor react so graciously and dignified to a difficult loss. I congratulate you on a hard-fought season and, more importantly, for being a good and decent human being. You have certainly won over a new fan, but not because of your exquisite racing aptitude but because of your strong character. God bless!
Your driving showed you controlled the race until the control was removed from you. I hope your not reading all of these and have freed yourself from what’s happened it seems like f1 has something to talk about forever and has drawn people in. I have never done this before or likely will again as people are not my favourite things but the injustice of it all after you pulled through so much. A true champion would admit that you won that one had the opportunity come to me I would of stayed behind you as I would not of wanted to win that way. I guess the pressure placed on you guys to win goes beyond your wishes as drivers. Regardless of who is the world champion of the sport you have the right mentality to want to win but properly. Max deserved to win as much as you did but to me what you did outshines his victory you controlled a frantic race and the ones before, your the type of champion that deserves to be a 7 times world champion. I hope to support you next year but feel F1 has taken something from its fans personally I hope you retire I would not want to be a part of the mess that has been made of the sport but whatever you do a critical eye will be put on the decision such as retiring being thrown toys out of pram or staying has something to prove, I hope you trust in yourself to know what’s right for you and you are filled with peace over it all as I have said as Max I would know who won the championship he still has something to prove not you.if I was Max as I crossed the finish line on the radio instead of screaming I would be saying it’s not winning this way I’m on a through bread and he is on a donkey how’s that racing!!!
Warmest of regards to a human being I can relate to in how he holds himself in victory and defeat regardless of what is happening inside him
Russell
Dear Lewis,
As a Dutch fan I have always supported Max and was hoping he would win the championship this year. However, this last race in Abu Dabi you ruled. Your driving was massive and without interfering you would have won and I think should have won. I want to tell you that I have much respect for you. The way you looked Max in the eye when you gratulated him was the image of a true fighter. Please Lewis, keep racing. You and Max, what more can we ask for.
Sincerely,
Peter

Dear Lewis
Very few people achieve as much as you have or have faced the level of pressure that you do on a weekly basis. Yesterday was one of the most pressured sporting events I have witnessed and I was proud to see you driving so brilliantly and controlling every aspect of the race. What happened in relation to those last few laps was unforgiveable and I just can’t see how any sport can have rules that depend on the whim of the person in charge. You were robbed and everyone knows it!
What I did want to comment on was the amazing way in which you coped with the situation, showing respect to your opponent and showing all those at the award ceremony how to behave in a time of such controversy. You are an amazing sportsman who has already achieved so much and I am sure that your fighting spirit and limitless skill will take you to new heights next year and that you will gain that eighth world title that you so richly deserve.
Dear Lewis,
I was really sad to see what happened yesterday. You are inspirational and a true winner. My partner is a huge F1 fan for more than 20 years now and has been cheering for you all along. He tried to share the message below on social media, but it was not sent, therefore I am sending it on his behalf:
“Lewis, you will probably never read this, but if you do, my heart is broken for you. I feel like you are family, I haven’t slept properly all week; nervous as hell. Wishing for you today. You did so well today, you did everything right, you were the fastest, but on paper atleast you didn’t win, this isn’t fair, but stay strong. In my heart you are an eight times world champion. But not just in my heart and consciousness, but any f1 purest will know you did enough today and over the course of the season to be champ and it was taken away from you for whatever reason. You humbleness at the end was beautiful, in your shoes, i couldnt have acted like that. Much love. TeamLH ??”
Anyone who really understands what happened yesterday, knows you are the champion so huge congratulations on your performance, integrity and ethos. Keep inspiring us!
Best wishes,
Maria
You are an amazing sportsman, and well done for how you have dealt with the last 24 hours. You deserve Honours but please don’t accept a Knighthood. You don’t need to, it is an Honour which relates to white colonialism/racism and slavery and a system which subjugates all of us who live in the UK. I will always be a supporter of yours.
Kind regards
Sarah Bennett-Green
Dear Lewis,
First of all, I must say that I never thought I would write to you
I will be honest you have been making me suffer for years because I have never appreciated your attitude, however I respect your talent enormously.
You both deserved the title, what happened yesterday is horrible i can’t imagine what you must be feeling, sincerely sorry for you.
I still want to tell you this.
Your attitude after the race was amazing, you were dignified, incredibly sporty
I have been following you for 14 years. This is the first that I’m going to say this: Today I have a lot of respect for you as a man
Well done Mr. Hamilton, I must bow
You are the best
Best regard,

Hello Lewis
YOU ARE THE BEST!
You are the best racing driver F1 has ever known and probably will know. I have followed your whole career and am full of admiration for not only your driving talent but also for your gentlemanly behaviour and humility. I watched the Abu Dhabi GP yesterday and what I witnessed made me …..not angry….not disbelieving…..but apoplectic! You were totally robbed and Verstappen was handed the race to him on a plate. The only consolation is that we both know you were the better driver and because of that you will come back even stronger next year and take that 8th World Championship title you so richly deserve.
Keep your chin up
Val
Lewis you did your best. I’ve watched you for your whole career brilliant every time. I’ve never been to a race probably never will. Think I might be fighting dreaded C this new year and bringing up family could not get to gp anyway Lewis like you I’m a fighter don’t give up mate I got grandkids to them I’m a champion so we never give up your 2022 champion good luck Wayne peace and love
Hi Lewis,
I don’t know if you’ll see this message but here goes anyway.
As a young, boy who had just started watching formula 1, i knew nothing of the sport. Until i saw you in that Mclaren. Since then you have achieved so much that it’s unthinkable that at the time anybody would have been crazy to predict where’d you be today. Smashing record after record, you have silenced all your haters. What happened today came down to luck and wasn’t in your hands. To have a worthy opponent in Max and taking the fight with him right till the end shows your class in this sport, considering you were on the back foot this season and when at times you weren’t in the fastest car. But i just want you to know that we’re all proud of you and you’re hands down the best of all time. Why? Because you’ve been in this situation before remember? You came back stronger after 2007 and even more stronger after 2016. And you will definitely come back even more powerful. Because you are Sir Lewis Hamilton and the Hamilton i know does not go away quietly. You’re in it too far to give up now. That 8th championship will come and you will get it. And you’re not alone. We’re all here behind you cheering you on, because we believe in the GOAT. We want you back on that Merc next season, and you will show the world that your still here.
WE BELIEVE IN YOU LEWIS!!!
Hello,
In my opinion you have won the Championship, no doubt!
I am looking forward for your 8th win.
You are such a great driver and such a gentlemen, no driver speaks like you do.
Lewis, show them what it takes to be the greatest driver of all times, because you are!
I wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year with your loved ones!
(you were the only driver who wished that for the public….Respect!)
I send you all my good thoughts!
See you next year! Get the title back!
Great racing and season. keep your head up champ. Follow your F1 and Extreme E paths. Hope to meet you soon. Stay Safe

Dear Hamilton;
First of all I want to say congratulations for the fight that you gave today it was incredibly intense. You were fascinating like you always are. Even though I want to write everything that I have in my heart to you I can not organize my words to describe what I feel. You touch the hearts of people who watches you and you race with them they are always be with you and they fight by your side in your car. This is the real championship. I and my brother appreciate for this indescribable and tremendous feeling that you have given us. We love you as always . We will always be with you in that seat and we will be racing with you. To 8th time world champion of the world and the champion of the all time Lewis HAMILTON with love. You are the true champion man keep pushing, stay strong. Do not forget, real champions are not the ones who gets the cup, they are ones who keeps pushing harder even they fall. Do not let some obstacles on your road let it mess up your line.
Stay safe and healthy
Legends never die.

Robbed, Manipulated, Pure Fix.. I would check the data on Jos Verstappens phone before the Antonio Giovinazzi’s issues.. Antonio didn’t need to park it there, in the way, fast corner, past an extract zone, definite safety car…. And the second one, well there is history, re that media loved racing driver “Alonso,” he got Piquet jr to crash for him.. A stretch re Latifi i know, but what came afterwards is pure FIA scumbaggery at it’s best and Latifi is Italian…
Lewis outclassed Verstappen today, this is the only way Verstappen could win, either take Lewis out or have the FIA gift it to him, there’s lots of history there also…
If Lewis had pitted under the last safety car, Verstappen would have stayed out, you can bet your right leg the FIA would have kept all the cars behind, even run the safety car to the end, we all know this deep down. Look what they did in Belgium, pure gift. Outrageous… Anything for Verstappen…
Lewis could not win this race, this was the most likely outcome, re a gift from Ferrari International Assistance to Verstappen.. But we live in hope, more fool us…
Don’t worry Lewis, we know you kicked his ass…
It’s the Schumacher era all over again, it never really went away, just more obvious when instances like this happen… My reckoning now is that you/Lewis have definitely been robbed by them of three championships, at least, write a book…
Stay good in your heart, the rest will take care of itself… God Bless….
I cheered for Max until the end and I was happy with how it went.
Then I saw the scenes on the podium, where you were a GREAT LORD (and you taught me what the word “sporty” means), and I didn’t like the behavior of the others, drivers and non-drivers, on the podium at all especially to a SEVEN times World Champion.
Now you will have lost a F1 Championship but you have acquired a new fan.
KEEP UP, LEWIS!
We will see you in 2022.
I want to thank Lewis for being fair sportsman, for being quick, for being real Champ! I have no words to describe what Mercedes team has done and why. Just terrible mistake. Lewis, keep fighting!!!
Hi Lewis,
You won the Abu Dhabi race but, were robbed by the FIA. You & Mercedes should appeal the decision to release lapped car AND end the safety car at the same time. I have watched F1 since 1984 and NEVER seen such blatant one sided rule making in all those years. You and Mercedes won the Constructers World Championship and The Drivers, you are the GOAT never give up and keep fighting.
From Dave and Helen Pritchard, Lewis you are amazing we have watched you racing over the years and have loved every minute. I have my other favourite drivers as a Scot with Jim,Jackie and David but you have been our hero for the past few years. What a fantastic fight to the end and through no fault of your own to lose it by a stewards decision. Commiseration, but think of the past victories. The best British driver ever! And remember just a another year and you will clinch the best driver of all time of that I am certain.
Bonjour Lewis,
Ce petit message d’encouragement pour vous souhaiter un succés pour la course de demain et, comme je le pense déjà un 8 ème titre de champion du monde. Vous étes un pilote exceptionnel et vous le méritez.
Congratulations
Brubo Dieffenbach de Calais (FRANCE)
Hi Lewis. I think you should strongly invest to bring back the South African Grand Prix even being its sponsor. You should also look for partners to open a driver school there to find F1 black drivers, genius like you. Another like you only after 200 years, if we stand by waiting for the cicle of the universe. Think about it.
Dear Lewis,
I’m writing you from the United States,
I have been a fan of yours ever since you first appeared on top gear with your first championship. You are the best of the best!!! I want to see you win your eighth Championship. You can do this, I believe in you!!!! Finish The Job!!!
God Bless you Sir Lewis Hamilton

Hi Lewis,
Keep doing what you’re doing. You have shown yet again, that your response to Max is the right thing to do and, that being fair and winning is more important than winning at any cost. I have enjoyed watching you race from your Blue Peter RC car race and know that you are one of the most complete drivers I’ve ever seen. Go for it and win the last race, show them how it’s done…
Mike
Well done Lewis, against all odds as it were.. That red flag was a dirty trick, doubt if Verstappen would have made it to the end of the race if not for that.. The FIA are giving Verstappen and Red Bull a Blow-Job in public while the Coulthard Show (CH4F1 team) are right up their ass doing a covering job, nothing to see here, with Coulthard in particular stirring up hatred towards Lewis in the process……
If Verstappen did a 180 and headed straight for Lewis, Coulthard would find a way to blame Lewis, while making it look like the “suggestion” of others….
Also, that interview with Coulthard, it is no good trying to appease them, there is something wrong with their brain function, hence the position he is in and what he is capable of doing and is doing. No normal balanced human would do that to somebody else……
The only time people like him will get off your back is if you do what they want, then it will be all strawberries and cream, as you saw when you mentioned Scotland, he wet himself with joy, just like when his voice broke with excitement as Verstappen got in-front of you on the restart. To appease these fuckers you will have to betray yourself and sell your soul, like they have… So think on…
Good Luck in Abu Dhabi Lewis, even if they manage to steal it from you again, we all know (those that matter) who is the real champion… God Bless….
Dear Lewis,
Been watching F1 for 34 years, you did very well dodging all of that in Saudi, kept your head cool, kept charging, and you bagged that win with a broken wing .. you are the most impressive driver of our times.
Go and get your 8th title.
Give’em hell in Abu Dhabi, SIr L.
Hi Lewis
You are simply the best driver. You are everytime fair and calm. Stay calm, I am shure you win the Championsship and I wish you all the best, also for the last race in this year 2021.

Hi Lewis.
You are one of the few personalities that transcend their own area of expertise. The word champion does not do you justice the way you handle yourself both in and out of the arena. I feel so privileged to be alive during your period of dominance over the Formula One.
You have 2 races left in 2021 with the possibility of becoming the greatest ever driver of all time. I honestly believe that despite the result of these last 2 races you already hold this Title. I love that you give your all every time. I love that you speak your mind and are a voice for love and good in this world. I love that you are an amazing role model and will continue to be long after you depart this earth.
I just want to let you know that there is a 40 year old man living in Melbourne Australia that is thinking of you and rooting for you over these last 2 races and if I could apply just a fraction of the humility and grace you show throughout everything you do in public life towards my own life, me and everyone around me would be a lot better off.
So even though you’ll probably never read these words; thank you for being yourself and good luck in your last 2 races mate. I know you won’t leave anything out there and will give your all and try your hardest and I really hope that fate and destiny can shine upon you in the next few weeks.
GO GET ‘EM MATE and GET IN THERE LEWIS !!!!

Hello Lewis ,
Hope your doing well
Wishing you all the very best for the last 2 races
Will hope and pray you win them both and be the 1st ever driver to be the champion for the 8th time
I am sure you can do it
Again wishing you all the luck in the world 🙂
Hi Lewis,
Love you work and congrats so far on a great season and I hope you are able to get another world championship.
All the guys from our racing league (RPL) love following you and Roscoe on Instagram. You are sometimes all we talk about.
Race hard!

Dear Lewis,
Great 2 wins at Qatar and São Paulo. Hope you win your 8th title.
Dear Lewis,
I’m Brazilian, a big fan of motorsport since 1972. I live in Santos/SP, where Pelé and Neymar became known around the world.
I’m very happy for your performances during the season and I hope you can win together with your team, Mercedes.
I have many thoughts in common with you, but I ask that you not be negatively influenced by people like Anitta, who attacks our current government and defends those who, in the past, looted the nation’s coffers, leaving the already suffering people even poorer.
I say this because I am not a man who has worked since a very young age and who seeks to help, as much as possible, his less fortunate fellows.
I believe that some political views in relation to Brazil reach other countries in a distorted way and, in this way, everyone thinks that our President is a bad man, homophobic, xenophobic, denial, genocidal, etc. This is all a big lie. Despite the pandemic, our country is doing well, as you could see when you were here. Of course you must have heard some lying traitors talking nonsense, but please do not consider that. I want you to keep in your heart the glorious moments you had at Interlagos, when after your epic victory, you took our flag as our idol Ayrton Senna did.
Thank you for your attention and I hope for your success!
A big brasilian hug! God bless you!
Hi,
This is a long shot but I thought I’d give it a go anyway. My dad is your biggest fan. He’s watched all of your races 1000 times and had his favourites recorded to rewatch when he wanted. He watches on the edge of his seat (literally) whilst he’s racing and screams excitedly at the TV.
Anyway, it’s his birthday on the 30th November. It would mean the world for a video saying “happy birthday Des” or a signature, or anything really! I’m happy to pay for it if that helps? I’m really sorry, I’m sure you get loads of these, I just know how happy my dad would be so thought I’d give it a go.
Thank you! 🙂

Hi Lewis, your last 2 wins were just incredible. I absolutely love your positive attitude this year and I am certain that this is one of the main reasons leading to your success in the second half of this season. Keep it up. We can do this. Yes!!!!!

Dear Lewis Hamilton,
Knowing your connection to the iconic Spitfire through your work with IWC and the amazing, time-stopping advertisement filmed at Goodwood, I’d like to draw your attention to a unique, Spitfire national treasure that is currently under threat and ask if you could lend your support to our campaign to save it.
An online petition to oppose its demolition has now gathered nearly 53,000 signatures from across the UK and around the world: https://www.change.org/SOSpitfireShed
The Original Spitfire Flight Shed here in Southampton, “The Home of The Spitfire”, is now slated to be demolished and replaced by four industrial units. The planning application to destroy the Flight Shed and redevelop the site was approved by the Southampton City Council Planning Panel earlier this month. In the summer of 1940, when the Battle of Britain was at its height, nearly every Spitfire that flew against the Luftwaffe had been produced in Southampton and every one of those had been tried and tested in this Flight Shed. That it still survives is down to it being maintained over many years by the Ford Motor Company who still own the building.
We’re hoping to appeal this decision and perhaps get this unique building listed, preserved and repurposed for future generations to see and know what happened in it. It would be quite possible to incorporate the structure into the plans to develop the rest of the site but surprisingly this option is not being considered.
We have had support from many with connections to the plane and those who built or flew them including a 100 year old pilot. Our campaign has also attracted support from Sumita Singha OBE (for services to architecture) who, with many in her profession, is clear that demolition of existing buildings is an environmentally unfriendly process that unnecessarily releases carbon emissions into the atmosphere and the replacement of adaptable and durable buildings such as the Spitfire Flight Shed by short-lived new ones is environmentally harmful.
Any supportive comments from yourself, Lewis, the Mercedes team or any other F1 drivers to oppose the demolition would be most welcome as we try to stop the building’s destruction. Interestingly perhaps for you and your team, the approach to the nearby Southampton Airport which was the outlet for the Spitfire production line in Southampton has a 1/3 scale replica of the plane on display sponsored by… the adjacent Mercedes garage!
If this message is being read by your management team I hope they will pass it on to you for your consideration. In the meantime I wish you well in your battle to close the gap on your rival for the F1 Championship.
Kind regards,
Alan

Hey Lewis,
I just want to thank you. My son is 12 years old and he worships you. Living in the Netherlands where every kid in his class is a max fan he proudly wears his Mercedes shirt and backs you all the way. I Just want to thank you for being a good role model.
From
A proud dad
Sorry, me again… Just to add. it seems the FIA and the likes of Verstappen and his fans have learnt absolutely nothing from the cheating and scumbaggery of the Schumacher era.. Karma is always around the corner and it strikes when you least expect.. Verstappen fans deservedly soaked in Belgium.. The Brazilian Grand Prix, they don’t want to interfere with the title race when it affects Crashstappen, but shove Lewis to the back of the grid and he still wins, despite a second go at it by the dodgem driver…
Whether they steal this championship away from Mercedes and Lewis or not, it is irrelevant, it will all balance out eventually… Karma, just saying…
Am glad to introduce to you Orphan Children of Kalivario Orphans Children’s Association who are interested in becoming clouse to you, below is the website for the Orphan Children

Dear Mr. Hamilton,
to watch you driving a F1 car is just incredible. And I hope you will win this year the World Championship again. It is harder then the last years, but if anyone watch closer, they can see what is the different to you and Mr. Verstappen. You loose as a champion, but he couldn’t. Brazil is the best example. And Monza as well. At the end the Universe will be on your side. I am from Austria, should be Red Bull Fan, but my heart beats with you. Stay healthy and let your dreams become true.
Yours 50 years old fan Thomas
Ferrari International Assistance (FIA) are trying to stop/cheat Lewis out of winning the championship and beating “Schumacher’s” record, which in reality he has already done, having previously been robbed by them of at least two championships… While they allow Verstappen to drive and cheat like they did Schumacher, basically driving with impunity, leaving Lewis to drive with one hand tied behind his back, like those previously, as usual… Oh if only the record books would show this scumbaggery…
Good to see the Brazilian fans acknowledging these despicable on-goings by booing Verstappen, some justice at last…
To add insult to injury I had to watch the race on the Coulthard Show (CH4F1), who did their best to ruin it with their blatant bias (while Coulthard makes more than one pre recorded prediction before the race, so slimy) and adverts every two minutes about how great Scotland and the Scottish are..
Masonic Control System, Scottish Rite in Action…. (No 33), just a little hint…
Anyway, Lewis started from last and won, but lets say tenth, still a massive achievement, never done before in Brazil.
I hope Lewis starts to treat Verstappen with the contempt he deserves, Verstappen being a very desperate man and his team, well they speak for themselves, disgraceful behaviour, ruining the efforts of their great achievements…
Huge Respect and Love to Lewis, congrats for Brazil…
Hi Hamilton, my 13th birthday is on Thursday 11th November and please wish me happy birthday

Hi Lewis Hamilton,
I am your biggest fan and every time when Formula One is on , me and my family always watch you and other racers race and I have a couple of questions to ask you about:
“ Were you actually being bullied when you were in school.”
One important question I must ask you
“ Do you think you will be the eighth time world champion for Formula One and win this season for Mercedes as a treat for helping you and Bottas during the pandemic.”
“ Is Formula One working well for you.”
I just pray that you will be able to achieve your goals and dreams to become the greatest man you are and I also pray that you win and I want your dreams to come true and I want you to win these four Grand Prix races.
Be amazing and follow your dreams and hopes to become the champion!
Take care and stay safe Hamilton
Kind regards, Misi Dada .
Don’t forget to stay in touch with us.
Lewis Hamilton is the best driver but his not focus. Look at Max face when he come to race no smile at all because he wants to win. Hamilton if you going to win any other race you need to take your job seriously
Mr. Hamilton:
I’ve been an F1 follower since I attended Jim Clark’s win in the US Grand Prix of 1967. I live near Watkins Glen, where the race was held that year. In recent seasons, my wife has also become an F1 fan, and we geatly appreciate your driving talent. We have also come to appreciate your concern for social, economic and environmental issues, perhaps enhanced by your spiritual feelings, as expressed in your body art. It impresses us, too, that you have spent effort and money to advertise your causes and address them through actions.
The problems you champion are huge, global and have been around for centuries. If money and effort could solve them, wouldn’t they have been solved by now? Where, then, can real, effective solutions be found? You’ve chosen to say “God is love” on your neck. That’s a quote from the Bible at 1 John 4:8. We feel, along with you, that the Bible is inspired and that its message can lead to the solutions we all seek.
As examples, consider these Bible promises that address the problems you champion: “To bring to ruin those ruining the earth” (Revelation 11:18); “You bought people for God out of every tribe and tongue and people and nation” (Revelation 5:9); “He will swallow up death forever, and the Sovereign Lord Jehovah will wipe away the tears from all faces” (Isaiah 25:8). These promises will come true, since all of God’s promises come true.
We urge you, and all people we contact, to continue to look serously – and with an open mind – to what the Bible says regarding the world we live in today. A very useful tool for doing this is the totally free (to access and to use) website jw.org (no name, password or account needed). Why not take just a moment out of your very full schedule to see what good news can be found there?
Please stay safe and well!
Dane and Michelle
Your driving in the USA GP was superlative, but your strategy team let you down, once again (they take to long to think). The great schummeln Schumacher proved F1 is not about driving a car round and around as fast as it is possible to go. If you can think of nothing else, copy Verstyasppen’s strategy, move for move, and go head to head on driving – you will win!
When you said “he’s faster than me” your team should have immediately responded with an idea (such as changing to a different tyre and putting Verstappen on the back foot for pit stops). Next time If they don’t act then its up to you to do so. Don’t let your team treat you like and extension of the steering wheel. Have faith in your own mind. No one knows better than you.
We’re all behind you, Lewis. You are the greatest F1 champion of all time.
I notice that Lewis Hamilton’s address indicated on this site is incorrect as he has long since left the premises so would be good to update it accordingly.
For the USA GP – Give no quarter but don’t be wild like Verstappen. Trust your own mind on strategy. You are the highest scoring champion of all time, you know more than anyone else. Bring your very best game mate.
Be well – a long time fan of yours.
PS looking forward to an all British driving team at Mercedes next year.
My name Devanai I’m from Malaysia Hi Champion Sir Lewis Hamilton, I am huge big fan of yours and I love u keep up with the good work.
Dear Lewis
I’m Mathias from Switzerland. I write you because of my brother Christoph. He’s a huge fan of you since you start driving in Formula 1. My brother is someone who takes care of everyone in our family. Sadly he forget to take care of himself. I remember well in 2016, when I was very down because of divorce and the not very funny stuff that the divorce means to my two children. So, he was the one how motivates me and pushed me to think forward. With the racing bike we drove up to the ‘’Sustenpass’’. He was very athletic these days. He take a selfie with me driving behind him. He had a smile on and I was struggling very much if I can go up to the top. But these days are over. He has gained a lot of weight. I think he is about 115 kg. I try to motivate him but without success. Just if its possible can you do a short video for him with some motivating words. I hope that will motivate him and change his life in a another direction. You are his great idol he looks up to. Christoph has turned 32 this September. I know we live in a very privileged place here in Switzerland and there are much worser fates. I think it’s better to try and maybe I’ll reach you. But anyway I also have to thank you very much. Since about three years I’m vegan. It changed my life completely. I think your words are a big trigger to people who live in unconsciousness. So thank you very much Lewis. I wish you all the best for your life, the next race and of course the championship.
Best Mathias

Lewis, 100 wins, it’s a remarkable success. Beware of that savage from Max, that guy is problematic. I was glad to see you play the guitar, bravo. By the way, I am a musician from Croatia, the founder and keyboardist of the RIVA group of the Eurovision winner in 1989. May God give you the strength to endure everything and become an eight-time F1 champion. You deserve it.
Greetings Dalibor.
I am the girlfriend of an extreme F1 fan, and Lewis Hamilton fan. Well first off, happy Thursday Lewis where ever you are at in the world currently.
If I am being honest with you, I have a question. My boyfriend and I attend college together and have a formal coming up. Now this is a long shot…. But
Would you ever send me a video asking if he would go to formal with me? He is everything and more too me, and I am probably up there for him under the sport of F1, haha.
But, even if it were 2 seconds long, he would still probably cry, get a bunch of inspiration, and never be the same again.
Well, I hope you are doing wonderful, enjoying your day, and win the Turkish Grand Prix.
Sincerely, the girlfriend of an extreme fan. ??
Good day Lewis, I trust you are well.
Your fans out in South Africa, Pietermartizburg would like to wish you well for this weekends Sochi race. Continue to stay focused and do what you do best. God Bless you.
Hopefully we will see you at a Grand Prix one day, God willing.
My 10 year old son cannot wait to meet with you.
kind regards,
Shawn
I have followed your career from the beginning, I know you believe in God’s care over your life. I want you to know that their is at least one person who not only enjoys your talents and the fact that you rise above prejudice and support the vulnerable in society as well as in your own family. I want you to know (please let Lewis know this) that I pray for you and your family (as do many others I expect). May God give you the peace that I have treasured in my life and may you prosper under the Almighty’s gracious healing hand. He would say it is far wiser to be honourable than honoured (your treasure awaits you in glory exclusive to you not just here on earth).
Ps 37:7 Be still in the presence of the Lord, and wait patiently for him to act. Don’t worry about evil people who prosper or fret about their wicked schemes.
My goodness, re Italy. I watch the races on CH4F1 as don’t want to contribute to Murdoch’s shenanigans and feel robbed by our Media,.. Anyhow, back to Coulthard again i’m sorry to say. He dismissed your claim instantly, re being pushed off the track and blamed you initially for the crash also, at that point turned the TV off once knew you were alright…
Coulthard has a serious problem, which is the realm of the inadequates, can’t beat, destroy etc, as is what he does best… There is no cure for them, so don’t even try… He doesn’t even care about causing the worst crash in F1 history, just about wiped out the whole field…
I can’t watch this obvious scumbaggery going on anymore via CH4F1, it gives me thoughts i would sooner not have, so will just be catching the highlights on the net from now on…
It’s obvious what they are doing and it plays into Verstappen’s style of driving, a case of “you back off or i’m going to take you out.” With the FIA and “Media” on his side (i don’t know the result of things yet as have not wanted to look, will look after this), you are on a hiding to nothing again, imo of course, but it’s not the first time, hey Lewis…
I know why they are treating you like this, but i don’t have the solutions, other than to say, just keep doing the right thing, keep your heart light and filled with love, because that is ultimately what they want to take from you… If they have to stoop to these levels you have already beaten them..
You’re in our hearts chap, you can’t be more successful than that… God Bless…
My heart is still in my stomach. Just want to send you more prayers. God bless.
Hi Lewis,
you’re right: someone looked down and watched over you today.
I want to think it was Ayrton, who was watching the Italian GP and decided to intervene.
Take care of you and recover quickly.

Hi, my son is one of Lewis’ biggest fans, and he is inspired by Lewis. He made this video of him today, on his birthday. He loves Lewis because Lewis is larger than the sport itself. Hope you enjoy! https://youtu.be/7su151rDL4M
Hi Sir Lewis Hamilton, I am huge big fan of yours and I love u keep up with the good work don’t allow haters tell you that you can’t x
Hi Lewis,
I am a Formula 1 fan from The Netherlands for over 10 years now. However, I noticed that many fans, especially from The Netherlands, have a very extreme opinion about you or the rivalry with Verstappen. As a fellow Dutchman, I am ashamed of their behavior.
With the Dutch gp a few days away, I just wanted to let you know that there are many fans that respect the sport and the drivers as they are. When the booing or whistling starts, I hope you realize that there are some good fans around as well! I just wanted to let you know, because I imagine it can’t be easy to deal with all the hate on social media.. Keep up the good work!
Best of luck with the race and drive safely!
S
Dear Sir,
Like million others I have great respect and admiration to what you continue to achieve and look up to you in high regard and inspiration.
I recently watched the Netflix series Drive to Survive and one of my observations was the association of the driver and team. Every good driver need the backing of a solid team and vice versa.
I am a professional Michelin starred chef based in London. The reason I reach out is that I am looking for someone to back me up achieve my dreams. I am among the best in the industry with a great pedigree (India, UAE, UK) and after 23 years of cooking with the best in the field; I want to setup my own enterprise and leave a legacy for up and coming chefs.
If this message actually reaches you I would be really surprised & ofcourse pleased and would love to connect and explore any opportunities.
Regards and respect.

Hi Lewis, here we go again, Stitch Up!! I’ve lost count…
The FIA have some real low vibrational elements (being polite) and Ferrari/Schumacher Fan Boys to boot, at the decision making process, two birds with one stone in this case I fear.
They have already robbed you of two world championships in my opinion and it looks like they may be heading for a third…
That comment by the F1CH4 (as usual) hit squad interviewer, re “at least you have limited the damage to Verstappen,” says it all chap. That’s about projection and twisting reality/history, which of course is what they are all about at the end of the day, to have things perceived the way they want them…
If you want to know why they are doing it, i’m pretty sure I have the answers, it’s multi layered and in some small way part of the bigger picture..
God Bless and keep your chin up, believe me, it’s not you, it’s them…
PS: Don’t feel too sorry for many of those fans, they were there to boo you.. Karma…
The genuine ones, yes of course…
Good afternoon Sir Lewis and Team…
What is the process in having F1 racing in Orange County, Ca.
Hii dear Lewis, I hope you’re happy and well.
I’m Maria Eduarda, I’m 17 years old and I’m from Brazil.
I’m sorry for the inconvenience. But It’s my birthday this mouth and its a pandemic year so I’m a little bad with that, but I’m the biggest fan of F1 in the world and I really wanted a thing for my birthday. I don’t want to be a pain in the ass(lol) but I would love it if you guys would help me with that, I’m a big fan of you, you inspires me a lot and I really wanted your British GP Cap of this year (it’s sold out and I’m crazy for this) or just a message from you or a simple autograph, you can’t imagine what a difference it would make in my life, thank you for making me happy at every race and out them. I love very very much you and the amazing Mercedes team! ???
Hi Lewis,
Although you will probably never read this message, I feel the urge to write this message for you:
I live in the Netherlands and I am ashamed for all the negative you may encounter from Dutch people.
I’m very sorry.
Wim, The Netherlands.
Hi Lewis
honestly I’m not a big F1 fan;) but my husband is so much fun with F1 and you. I am asking for help in organizing a trip to Italy for the Monza race. September 12th is my husband’s birthday, it would be a great gift for him to meet you in person and be able to watch the race not only on TV. Unfortunately, on the official website, the tickets seem to be sold out 🙁 is there any possibility to help with buying tickets and arrange a short meeting with you for a few seconds to take a photo with you?
Thank you in advance!
Hi Lewis. I want to tell you about a natural remedy which maybe you know already. Apple cider vinegar has various healthful properties, including antimicrobial and antioxidant effects. It can kill bacteria and help with blood pressure and other healthy things. It offers a small amount of potassium. Take 1 or 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar with 16oz bottle of water. You can also gargle with it. Taste is not the best but it will help. Try it. Get stronger!!

Hi Lewis. I was really sad to see you out of shape after the race at the Hungarian Grand Prix. Please trust me when I say this, YOU DO NOT HAVE LONG COVID. What you are experiencing is caused by prolonged wearing of your face mask. What we exhale is Carbon Dioxide and although this is what Trees and Plants live on, it is poison to our lungs. This will gradually cause Bacterial Pneumonia in your lungs, all the symptoms of which are the same as the so called COVID. So please leave your face mask off as much and often as you can, and breath the GOD given air that we are meant to breath and NOT the Carbon Dioxide poison that we breath out. There are many agendas going on behind the scenes and you need to be wise and ears to the ground! Trust Jesus and HE will guide you. GOD bless you and your family in Jesus’ name. Amen.
Hi Lewis,
You are (my and my sons) favourite driver, and for good reason! One of the most genuine people the sport has ever seen, its this season that we can really see what guts and determination can do, even when you’re not in the quickest car. At Silverstone I feel that Verstappen should have yielded as he knew you carried more speed, blocked you to the left as confirmation of that fact, the only other place for you to go was to the right! Then he braked late and turned in, you had nowhere else to go to avoid a collision. I think the Stewards got it wrong.
I’m so glad you can rise above the negativity, just as you did as a young driver coming up through the ranks of karting. Little kids doing their best don’t deserve to be treated poorly, I’m sorry to hear you were subjected to small minded peoples opinions at such a young age. They couldn’t handle your success.
My son is eager to get started in karting, hes 6 now so we need to get him in a kart soon! We’ll try to emulate your pathway to F1, albeit we’re in Australia, a long way from where the big events are held.
All the best, hoping to see you win an 8th championship!
Steve & Jackson
Hi Lewis,
as a Hungarian F1 fan I want you to know how terrible I was feeling when some people just kept booing at you after the Hungarian race. After today’s hard-fought podium finish it was not what you deserved. Had it not been for Fernando’s world class defending, every moment of which I thoroughly enjoyed, you would have made it to the top of the podium. What a performance that was!
Returning to my point, I feel terrible because of the way some Hungarian people expressed their dislike towards you. I can’t apologize in their name but I feel truly ashamed. Not all of us are like that. I hope such behaviour will not discourage you in your effort to claim this year’s title.
I also want to thank you for your brave stance and support for those who are supressed in any way.
That said, I wish you all the best and I hope bad experiences like today won’t hurt your commitment.
Best regards
David
Hi Lewis,
I saw you were physically struggling today after the hungary race. I think you experienced a panic attack and you where heavily hyperventilating i case you wonder what the hell it was. I hope you will get some help. If you have questions your management team can always contact me.
Be well and drive fair
Sr Lewis Hamilton, first place, sorry about my english, its not so good. Iam a Brazilian, a Senna fan like you and in the last years a big fan of you, i put you, Senna and Fangio in my top 3 drivers of all time. This massge is to give you support. When a person like you actives so much succes, some bad people simply get jealous and search for any litle thing to attack. Dont listen. Your driving is great, your cause is great, your color is great, you have my total suport and admiration. Every sunday morning me and my wife will be cheering for you (and for Lando and Leclerc rsrs) in front of TV.
Best regards!!!
Pedro
Lewis waves of power my brother, so good to see you surfing on the hate, your charm and professionalism are inspiring. Live/win forever!
Hi Lewis, hope you get to see this message, or at least hear about it.
Just to say, i don’t think you would have gotten a 10 second penalty if it were not for Coulthard and Jones at CH4F1, then Webber joined in. As soon as Verstappen cut across you and he clipped your front wing, Coulthard jumped on you for running into him and was calling for a penalty straight away, besides be derogative towards your driving. They, Coulthard Jones and Webber were relentless until you got the penalty.
Even that wasn’t enough for them because you won. So on the interview with Horner, Coulthard suggested to him to take it further, Horner wasn’t even thinking along those line until Coulthard suggested it.
Not only that, in a later clip, Coulthard puts the idea at Horner doorstep. The guy is a snake..
These “people” have it in for you Lewis, they always have, they are always making digs at you and it was Coulthard that was saying you were an amateur, rubbishing you…. He’s an awful individual…

Dear Lewis
Our family were all delighted when you won the 2021 Silverstone race last weekend. We know that you fully deserve the win!! And you are a true champion!!
Best wishes for the season,
Heather
Dear Lewis,
Horrified by media coverage. I’ve loved motor sport all my life (I’m 71 this year) and you’re one of the best things that has ever happened to F1.
You have immense talent and seem like a nice person as well.
Media and some population are always looking for excuses to take a pop at success.
Keep on doing what you do.
Best Wishes,
Ross.
Hi Lewis,
I have a 3 year old Son who lives and dreams of cars, bikes and want to know everything about cars particular fast cars. Since being introduced to F1 especially Lewis #44 for Mercedes he loves our car and this struck me he could be the next Lewis Hamilton. Off there will never be another Lewis may be the next Matthew. I want to get him started as i believe he has the potential.
Mr Lewis, merci tout d’abord pour votre professionnalisme en course, je ne manque pas un grand prix qui est transmis à la télévision dans l’espoir à chaque fois de vous voir gagner et de faire taire tous ses mauvaises langues qui prétendent que des gens de couleurs comme nous n’ont pas la capacité de faire ce genre de sport et encore moins de gagner, mais n’ont seulement vous êtes un pro de la F1 mais en plus vous êtes septuple champion du monde 1,2,3,4,5,6,7, championnat gagner ! , vous êtes un cauchemar pour ces gens racistes et avec beaucoup de préjuger, et vous êtes un héros pour nous .merci Mr lewis
Heads up Lewis – you were in the right to claim a corner that belonged to you. Keep up the fight and be yourself. I wish you did not have the additional hurdles you face, moving forward, but I pray for your continued strength as a competitor witht the heart of a lion. [I’m not even a Mercedes fan, love the Alfa Romeo, but felt strongly enough to let you know you have a fan here in Washington DC]
The rain was pounding heavily, each drop beating a tattoo on the cockpit of the racing yacht in which Alexi and I were sitting and waiting. According to the weather forecast, it was a beautiful and sunny day, with a light to medium Mistral, ideal for sailing. Yet, we were freezing, stuck and docked at Port Cap d’Ail. The silence was broken by a cell phone ping.
“Formula One is taking place in Monaco this weekend!” Alexi looked at me joyfully.
“And?” I asked without much interest.
“Sir Keith has let us know that invitations for Sunday are waiting for us. He says that we should relax for a little bit. You know, he’s a member of…”
Naturally, as a respected figure in high society, Sir Keith was a member of all kinds of organisations and clubs, and could have dealt with anything. Not only did he believe in Alexi more than he believed in himself, but he also believed in some other pretty bizarre things. Anyway, this was great news. It was still raining, but somehow the torrential downpour suddenly seemed much much less daunting.
On Sunday, I suggested an early start, thinking that if McLaren was going to host us, they would provide warm food and cold drinks. Living and training on a racing yacht excluded both, therefore Sunday would be a doubly pleasurable experience.
We were warmly welcomed. The receptionist handed us our passes and sponsorship goodie bags at the main reception desk. Then an attentive hostess escorted us to the McLaren Paddock Club and seated us at a table in pole position, right next to the terrace. Three tall leather chairs were placed around the table which was covered by a silk tablecloth embroidered with the restaurant emblem, and laid with tiny cutlery, more suited to the seven dwarfs. The track and boxes were right in front of us, and a table with food and drinks less than six feet away. We put on sponsor T-shirts and took our starting grid positions.
Life is beautiful!
With a little less than two hours until the beginning of the race, our bellies full and drinks in our hands, we sat and watched all of the pre-race activity in the pits and around the track. The remaining five tables were already occupied by the British jet set on a weekend in Monaco.
I noticed that among the old money, people greeted each other with careful restraint, nodding and bowing politely. The nouveau riche were much more ebullient, slapping each other on the back, air kissing and loudly calling each other ‘darling’.
Alexi was born into this life and as we emulated the more discreet greeting ritual, I started to feel at home. My late Granny used to say that it was easy to get used to the good things in life! I even passed a piece of cheese to a highly-groomed poodle belonging to a woman dripping in diamonds, sitting at the next table. I think she smiled at me, but it was hard to tell as not a muscle in her face moved.
Ah, the life of high-society Brits!
Gazing around the room I spotted a shy young fellow leaning against the back wall, as if glued there. He was wearing a pass that looked very similar to ours around his neck. I caught Alexi’s attention and nodded towards the young guy and then at the third chair at our table. Alexi beckoned the hostess, who immediately came over.
“My dear, would you be so kind as to ask that young chap over there to join us? We have a spare chair anyway and I see that the view is not particularly good from where he is standing.”
Apart from a slight raising of her right eyebrow to indicate she didn’t approve of this idea, our hostess was the consummate professional. No doubt she had been given different instructions, but the request came from a VIP guest, invited by none other than Sir Keith Mills himself. She approached the fellow, whispered something in his ear, after which he joined us with a polite greeting. Alexi offered him the seat, inviting him to watch the race with us.
“Young man, would you like a drink, maybe a ginger ale or a Martini?”
“Thank you very much, Sir, but I don’t drink alcohol.”
“Pineapple or pear juice, perhaps?”
“Pineapple please, thank you.”
While Alexi’s craggy, weather-beaten appearance could be a little overwhelming at first sight, he always exudes such a warmth of personality that within minutes people are drawn to his lively enthusiasm and positivity. In his company, the young chap soon relaxed and revealed to us that he liked racing as well as football and karate, that he enjoyed fish and chips, and the sunny weather here, and that his father called him every day to check up on him. He showed up at the Paddock Club because, as a member of McLaren’s Young Driver programme, he had been sent to watch the race from there. His instructions were to stay in the background, against the wall, and not to bother any of the guests.
Alexi shook his head and asked him about his driving progress and his plans for the future.
“Currently, I’m driving Formula 3. If that goes well, I might move one step further one day.”
I jumped in, looking the little fellow straight in the eye.
“Great! So tell us, what is your goal?”
He paused, first looked at his arms folded in front of him and then at his half-empty glass of pineapple juice.
“One day I’d like to be a Formula 1 driver.”
He shrank for a moment, as if petrified at revealing his ambition.
“Hey, you can do better than that! Come on, lad, convince me!
He took a few moments, had a sip of the pineapple juice, smiled reluctantly and responded in a subdued voice.
“I’d like to hold the Formula 1 title.”
As the boy uttered these words, he lowered his eyes again, and started to fiddle nervously with his pass.
“Is that the best you can do?! Listen to my mate, Alexi here, telling us his goal!”
At that, Alexi’s mouth opened in a wide grin. He swelled up with pride and blurted out:
“I’m Alex Thomson and I’ll be the greatest ever solo round-the-world skipper!”
While Alex’s words resounded around us, the little guy took a deep breath, his eyes flashed and colour rose in his cheeks. He gave us the most beautiful look in the world.
“I’m Lewis Hamilton and I’ll be the best Formula 1 driver of all times!”
Lewis, you are the greatest and fairest racing driver of all time. To come from nothing, like Michael Schumacher, is so inspiring. Max was all over the track, as in past races, and you had to stick up for yourself – racing incident brought on by his overly aggressive driving from the a good few corners back.
As for the abuse you have had – that type of person’s opinions are so worthless. As a white person I will stand up to any racist comments no matter how small as we all need to make it unacceptable every minute of every day. You are such an inspiration and make us proud to be British.

So entertaining. What a WIN at Silverstone 2021.
You got your shoulders out and showed Max you would not back down, GREAT MOVE
Go on M8 and WIN the title AGAIN

Hello Sir Lewis, Great drive on Sunday at Silverstone, Forget Verstappen, he’s a good driver could perhaps become a great one, but he is also a bully on track and like all bullies he can give it but can’t take it. You drew a line and not before time. A bit disappointed in Max really I thought he was a better man.
Hey Lewis,
I don’t know if this would even reach you but I’m gonna try.
I know you’ve been getting a lot of disgusting comments and abusive statements thrown at you because of yesterday
I just wish you read this, I know a lot of hate has been reaching you lately , i just want you to know that there’s a lot of love and positivity for you too , I really do wish the positivity in the world reaches you regardless of what form it comes in
It’s so shameful to see people with such mentalities and mindsets, I’m so sorry for the abuse that’s been going on online, it’s been affecting me a lot too..
I understand that it hurts a lot, even I cried thinking about how you’d be feeling.
I just want you to know that TEAM LH and I are always with you, we’re always behind you.. we love you regardless of what happens, we know how amazing and how clean of a driver you are…. you have all the rights to celebrate a victory as grandly as you want, you don’t owe anyone an apology for being yourself.. I’ve been trying my best to not post any negativity towards redbull or max on my social media as well, I know that’s not what you would want your fans to do, spreading hate is the last thing you’d want.. but that doesn’t mean we aren’t defending you or believing in you..
we know you, Lewis and we love you.. I love you..
Never give up champ, haters gonna hate regardless, but still we rise
Let’s do all the talking on track
With love,
Reha
Hello Lewis! I am reaching out again to inquire about whether you might be willing to send a short note or email to our son who is a HUGE fan and turns 12 next Sunday. As a young black boy who races go karts, you have been his biggest role model . We are surprising him on his birthday with tickets to the Grand Prix in Austin on October. A personal message from you to go along with this would be the BEST gift ever. His name is Gudeta or Det
Thank you so very much for considering !
Lewis,
Great, great drive at Silverstone today (Sun., July 18, 21). Haven’t enjoyed a race this much in a long time. From the spectular first half lap to the chase for the win, it was just a wonderful drive. You know Max knew you’d probably go right (to the inside) at Copse the instant he chose to go to the left (outside) before Copse, yet he …
This is driving. At home. From behind. For all the points. Yes.
Hey Lewis. I hope you see this.
Hello, I’m a 13 year old that has just recently gotten into F1 and you are the reason I love it. Anyways I want to say sorry for missing your race it’s hard waking up at very early time since I live in America. I promise I will not miss your next race.
Sincerely
Aiden
Hello Mr Hamilton.
My name is Louis-Alexandre and I’m the president/founder of the Montreal Vegan Festival. A festival that makes a significant impact in the local culture towards veganism.
Last year we made it virtual and this year we are doing another virtual festival on november 6th. I’d like to ask you if you’d be interested in being featured in an interview for our festival.
We would ask you a few questions about your experience with veganism. Your struggles, your journey, your favorite food etc.
We’d like it to last no more than 20 minutes. Maybe 15 if you prefer. We feature athletes every year at the festival and we also feature international guests. You fit in both of these categories.
You’re probably one of the most inspiring figures of veganism in my opinion and that’s why I’m writing this little message to you.
I know you must be very busy but I hope you can reply and let me know if you’d be interested in that little interview.
Best regards!
The Montreal Vegan Festival

Hi Lewis, I am one of your fans.Actually My English is not very well.So This Letter maybe has some grammar mistakes.I hadn’t been Formular 1 fans before. I I’ve started to be fond of this sport recently years.At First I think you are really cool.You are the champion and you always win.But I want to tell you that I truly admire you now.I have read many of your interviews. I know you are not only a racing driver you are quite a kind person at first. You are speaking for animals,speaking for the environment.That’s very remarkable. I read you said “If I don’t post this who is going to? “,”I have this platform and I can’t waste it” I was deeply touched. I know doing this is not easy.I love animals and nature. People damaged them which hurt me .Seeing you are vegan.You used to eat meat,but now you don’t anymore. It’s a difficult change. I am endeavoring to do it too. This letter is a bit stupid. You are rarely able to see it. But It’s doesn’t matter,writing this makes me feel so good.If I am lucky you can read this ,hoping it makes you feel good too. By the way Hope everything is all right with you!

Dear Lewis,
My father’s birthday is comping up ( 26th of August ) and I’ve been thinking about his gift for quite a while.
He has been a big fan of you for over 20 years now, following you in all his social media and of course, all your races. He always watched the try outs on Saturday and the race on Sunday, it’s a family joke now that we say “ Sundays are for Hamilton” We already got him tickets to the UK races happening in two weeks and he’s extremely excited to sense the adrenaline live! I’d love to get a birthday wish from you to him in a video, definitely a dream of mine as a daughter as I am sure it’ll make his birthday amazing.
If there are any fees we need to pay, please let us know as we are open to discussion!
Thank you, Mea Mata
Hello Mr. Hamilton, I am writing on behalf of my 11 year old son who is a HUGE fan. As a young black boy, you have been a huge inspiration to him. He races go karts and hopes to someday follow in your footsteps and would like to be the first F1 driver from the US. will be turning 12 on the 25th of July and we are surprising him with tickets to the F1 Grand Prix race in Texas . We would love to include a message from you in his birthday card to include with his surprise tickets to the race. He would literally lose his mind if he were to hear from you. His name is Det! Thanks so much for considering this and best of luck this weekend!
Dear Lewis,
I watch every F1 race and I am your fan.
Regarding to previous races, I have one very important advice to you:
Push very hard from the beginning of the race and have one more stop than Red Bull or from the normal strategy.
This is the only way to beat them.
We lost the France GP? Why? When you pushed very hard after the first pit-stop, it was very reasonably to go for the second pit-stop. But, instead you to did that, Red Bull went to second pit-stop and stole our strategy.
It was not possible to go to the end on that tires and to win that race.
The first mistake happened in Monte Carlo, where, instead to pit Bottas, the team firstly pitted you.
You made mistake in Baku – you had to be satisfied with 2-nd or 3-rd place instead to looked forward 1-st place (which is normal) and not to be careful and to make mistake as you did.
In our language: better a sparrow in the hand than a dove on a branch.
I think that France should be the last mistake that we did.
So PUSH HARD AND MAKE ONE PIT-STOP MORE IN THIS CIRCUMSTANCES.
Regards,
Nenad.
Hi Lewis
I am Manoj from India a huge fan. Love to watch you drive and i simply lover of all Mercedes cars. Good luck for your 8th Championship. My son support Redbull and I support You…please dont let me down…good luck once again. …
Hello,
My name is Daniel Brown, I am 17 years old, Live in the UK and I am a huge Formula one fan. Me and my Father were supposed to go to the Grand Prix in Silverstone last year. But unfortunately, I was not able to attend sadly, due to the pandemic.
I wanted to ask if there was any possibility, I could receive a driver card or any memorabilia.
I am huge fan of Lewis Hamilton, not only as an F1 driver but i look up to him as role model in general. He is someone who is passionate in everything he does on and off the grid. He is way more than a formula 1 driver to me, I even have a poster of him in his rookie season on my wall. But thankyou for reading my e-mail either way.
If possible, my home address is:
38 Elizabeth Road, Brentwood, Essex
England, United Kingdom
Postcode: CM15 9NU
Best wishes and luck for the team in the future,
Thank you very much! I would really appreciate it!
Dear Lewis,
My name is Cameron Bowering and I am a 22 year old man from Victoria, Australia.
I am a huge F1 fan and I regularly play F1 Games at home and watch as many of your races as I can.
I love my Soccer and I would love to one day go for a ride in a F1 Car.
I hope you can make it down to Australia this year in November.
All the best! (Thumbs up!)
Kind regards,
Cameron Bowering.
Hi Lewis,
I’m Dutch and a fan of Max Verstappen. However, today you looked so down after the race I feel somehow I have to comment. This championship would be nothing without you. Your team had a very bad start of the weekend but in the end you were there. You stepped up, made the right choices and on race day you were there, right up front. So you made a small mistake in the end, nothing gained, but also nothing lost. It’s a reminder you are only human, like the rest of us. You’ll learn and come back stronger. You know you are one of the best (if not the best) drivers ever. I greatly respect your stance in life and how you promote your personal views on certain subjects even though it’s not always appreciated to do so on a sports platform. Keep using your platform to do great things and stay strong! F1 needs you!
This season has been the best in a long time thanks to you!
Regards, Lucas
Hi,
This is probably a long shot but I have to try. My brother’s father in law, Rudy Bijlsma, has been suffering from lung cancer for 2.5 years. He has been a huge Formula 1 fan his whole life. He was supposed to go to the F1 race in Austria last year but this got cancelled due to Covid-19. He is to sick to go to the race this year as he only has a few months left.
His birthday is 12th of June. He will be 61 years old.
We were wondering if it would be possible to maybe get a little video of the team wishing him a happy birthday as this will be his last. We know he would be over the moon if this would be possible.
We are a Formula 1 family and watch every race. My brother even named his son Senna.
Please help us make his last birthday the best birthday he has ever had!
It would mean the world to us and our whole family.
Kind regards,
Kim Nijboer
An Open email to Lewis,
I read with interest recently the interview you did with Spain’s AS newspaper about the difficulties that ‘normal’ people have breaking into F1, or any motorsport to be honest, and thoroughly agree with your statements.
At our Academy, we believe that the only thing you need in order to be successful is Passion, ok, with a modicum of Talent! We are working hard to make motorsport more accessible to everybody irrespective of Gender, Race, Colour . . . our Academy mantra is ‘Where Talent Meets Opportunity’.
We have chosen South Africa, probably still one of the World’s most divided countries in terms of Culture and Colour, to setup the first MotorSport Academy aimed at giving any racer – male or female – an opportunity to compete on level terms in order to win a prize drive worth $1M. South Africa has a history of apartheid where people are defined by the colour of their skin. Even now, in 2021, there are still parts of the Country that differentiate between Black, White and Coloured individuals. In a Country with a population of 60 Million people, half of which have no access to running water or sanitation, we want to show that you can dream, you can be a success as long as you have the Passion inside your heart.
We will be going to each of the Provinces within the Country and running assessment workshops, where we will judge everyone’s potential on what they can produce on the day – if you have seen the film Million Dollar Arm where they travel throughout India to find a Cricketer they can turn into a Baseball Pitcher, then our concept is the same! Our intention is to start with Rallying in Year 1, and in the subsequent years we will add additional motorsport disciplines, until after year 5 we are 5 x Championships a year, have 5 x Academic Scholarships per year, and will be 100% run by South African Nationals. Our Scholarship program will ensure that we will staff the Academy with Graduates and it is they who will continue to drive the Academy forward.
Year 1 we will find, 6 x Drivers, 6 x Co-Drivers, 24 x Service Crew . . . all from different backgrounds and upbringings. We want to take disadvantaged people who may have been in trouble with the Police or in and out of foster care, and give them an opportunity to turn their lives around – what can go wrong?!?. If we can find just one person that people can associate with, then we can hopefully show that you can take control and make a difference. We want individuals to become a Team!
Where our Academy is different, is that we do not stop at the racing talent, we are also looking for Service Crew, will setup Academic Scholarships in Marketing, Engineering, Health and Nutrition, to enable people to learn and develop within their chosen field. Not everyone wants, or has the ability, to become a racer, but there are many other opportunities open to them. Everyone at the Academy will have a Health and Nutrition plan, and this will help them to understand how to exercise, how to eat more healthy, how to take care of themselves.
We are not asking you for anything, though we are looking for an Academy Patron if you are interested, we just want to show that in many different corners of the World, people are still fighting for equal chances for all. We can take the Academy to any country in the World, maybe India or Brazil will be our next port of call, and prove to people that success is possible as long as you can Dream! We are hoping to encourage a TV company to follow the Academy and to show that Dreams can come true.
It would be great to discuss the Academy in more detail with you, and to see if you are interested in becoming our Patron, but, most of all, I just wanted to tell you that we are still fighting!
Dear Hamilton:
Excellent example. For what you do on the racetracks and even more so off of them.
From Buenos Aires I send my greetings.
I am a doctor and I would like to contact you to find out if it is possible to do something for those who have less. And who better than you to help me help them!
Dear Lewis Hamilton,
Will you not speak up for the oppression and inhuman injustice that is happening to the Palestinians? Will you not speak up like you to the mantle for the ‘Black Lives Matter’ movement? Are Palestinian children’s lives worth any less than other children’s? Did humans from across the devide and spectrum take the ‘knee’?
We will all be judged about how we used our status and whether we were hypocrites or not!
I implore you to speak up so others in similar positions will have the courage to do the same!
I wish you peace and happiness and wish the same for the people of Palestine and for people the world over.
Regards,
A fellow human being

Hi Sir Lewis and Sir Roscoe,
Well done Lewis for achieving your 100th pole position yesterday and good luck for the race today in Barcelona, my favourite track. You can do it!
Thanks for being a brilliant role model and advocate for those people in society whose voices are perhaps not heard. You have helped me more than you know, especially with your motivational videos and race interviews.
I hope you are well and looking after Sir Roscoe. If he was thinking of having puppies I would be delighted to give one of them a home. I’ve written to your management company, so please ask them if you and Sir Roscoe would like more information about my suitability.
With love as always. God bless you.

HI Lewis
My name is Hugo and I would like to meet you. I asked my parents to go to Silverston your home GRAND PRIX but I don’t know if I could come because I live in a small island in Indian Ocean, a french colony named REUNION ISLAND. It is a beautiful island with beaches and mountains (you can also surfing). Perhaps I will can meet you if we can take a plane to go to UK this summer. You are my idol IT would be a great honor for me who come from a multicultural island to meet you, you are the greatest of all time !!!
Hugo from REUNION ISLAND #blacklivematters
Dear Mt Hamilton
I hope this message finds you personally My son and I are big fans of F! They purchased tickets for me and them as a 2019 Hanukkah gift to the 2020 Canadian Gran Prix, As you know the race was cancelled due to covid 19 My son to this date so far (5/7/21) is still waiting for a promised refund as are many Canadians US, and British fans I know you have been using your voice for social change in society which I support . I am asking if yourself and your fellow drivers could use your voice to pursue F! and the FIA to pressure the promoters to refund the everyday working fans who love and support F!
Thank You
Leonid Wlasowicz
Good Morning sir. I’m Sathguru Rohit, 14 from india. I don’t know if you’ll read this, but this mail just has my emotions.Through the recent years, I’ve developed a strong passion towards motorsports racing. I could point out the RC cars that my parents bought me. 2 years ago, I participated in my first professional race, the nationals of my Country. Qualified to the finals, but couldn’t win, just because I was cornered out by other racers who came through academies and cheated on their lap timings and Changed my grid position. But I shouldn’t give up with just one race right ? But the situation still has me hurt mentally, since I knew I had the potential and could’ve won, but couldn’t just because I wasn’t participating through an academy, unlike the other kids who could afford a training program.I could afford a phone to email, a way up the finals but not to a training program or an academy, that costs way too much. My father is already in his 50’s. He still works hard for me, so that I could have a good education. I don’t say that I could cheat with an academy too, but just have strength against them, and so that they won’t cheat me just because I’m alone in a race. So I’m wholeheartedly requesting you, can you fund my career ? If this message bothered you or if you found it unnecessary, I apologize sir. Everytime I think I can’t afford this passion, it’s you who Clear that thought Sir !
– Love from India
Sir,
Your strength of mind, body and spirit along with your (obvious) commitment to excellence are exciting to behold; however, your commitment to helping others is more inspirational.
God is love…
Hi Lewis. Awesome start to the season showing some real skill, grit and determination. How do you keep the hunger ..?!
It’s my daughters 18th birthday on 8th April and I wondered, knowing how much you value family, if you’d send her a message wishing her happy birthday??? ??.
We can’t wait to come and watch you live again and show you some love. Lockdown has been tough and this will be her second time stuck inside for a birthday!
Thank you
Take care
Tobias
Dear Lewis: What an awesome start of the season. I was so happy to see you win yesterday. I have watched the closing episode of season 3 (Drive to Survive) over and over. You using your success platform to bring change is beyond admirable. I am Andrea Weitzner, from Mexico and just yesterday, 4 cops KILLED A DARK SKIN WOMAN THE SAME WAY GEORGE FLOYD WAS KILLED, By EXCESSIVE USE OF POLICE FORCE. This happened in TULUM; MEXICO YESTERDAY, March 28,2021. There will be no justice if someone does not raise his voice. Please, look at the video, and please, please, don’t let her death go unnoticed.
Thank you and again, you are an amazing driver but even a more amazingly kind and decent human being.

Hello Lewis

Hi Lewis. Your passion and emotion are inspirational. I have to cut this short as I am about to chase you in Gran Turismo GT, Dragons Tail Seaside. I am 66 years young. I am a racer. You’re never too old to fly. Take care. I will be watching. So, I will see you on the track, even though it’s a sim. Cheers and good luck.

Hey Lewis,
love from India. I really think that you should not sign your contract with Mercedes for 2021 because they are going to lose due to the financial rules for 2021
bro sign ur contract
Hello, Sir Lewis. I wanted to message you and ask to tell you about a few things I have been thinking about lately. How has life been? You turned 36 just a few days ago which seems so old but you definitely don’t look like it! You started your F1 career when I was in kindergarten, which is the first level of school in America where I’m from. Now, I am in college. It’s crazy to think you have been racing for almost my whole life. I am an 18 year old black man from Fayetteville, North Carolina. And the role you have played in my life has been so astronomically big. You changed my life in so many ways you could never imagine. I am so beyond grateful that I have been able to follow you on this journey to see you transcend to never before seen levels of dominance in this sport. I’ve met some incredible people through supporting you. And though I have never been to a race, I have still showed my support to you through many other ways. Going back to what I said about how I have met some incredible people through you, I wanted to talk about those people for a second. I have met some other fans of yours through various social media sites, mainly twitter. We talk about F1 stuff pretty much everyday. I mean we’ve spent so many hours going through stats about your career, etc. And through our support for you, we’ve became really good friends. But lately, some of them have been a little worried. We are all extremely passionate about supporting you and some of those people have been very concerned about your current contract situation. Some of them believe that things right now are not looking too good between yourself and the higher ups in the team. I have always been under the impression that you and the team understand each other very much and when the time is right, things that need to happen will happen. But they seem to think that there is a real disconnect between you and the team. I understand completely that the intricacies of your contractual negotiations are none of my business at all, but I would just like a little bit of closure if that is ok. Are things between you and the team really not looking good right now? I know that you are an amazing driver and person and you and Toto in particular have always been open with each other. I really do love you Lewis, and I don’t want to believe the rumors the media puts out making you and Mercedes look bad. But as more and more time passes without a contract being signed and more and more rumors start to come out, the more worried I get. Once again, I love you and thank you for everything you have done for me in my life, Sir Lewis.

Dear Mr. Hamilton,
My family has 37,000 acres of land in the State of Mato Grosso (Legal Amazon) in Brazil.
It has been preserved since 1975 but we are not able to keep investing and we’d like to sell it.
It is an area of great interest as an environmental asset, next to the two indigenous reserves.
I would like to ask if you have any interest in this as an ambiental investment. If so, I can send you more information.
Thanks for your time,
Marcos Alexandre
Happy New Year and Merry Christmas dear Sir Lewis!
Wish you always be happy and strong and never give up! Never!
Wait for your many wins in 2021!
Happy New Year Dear Sr Lewis!
I finally won International Rotax Max Challenge Trophy 2020!
Wish you all the best in next year!
You are one of a kind driver!
Dear Lewis Hamilton:
Hello, My name is Olivia and I am 10 and I live in Canada. My family is a formula one fan. I watch all of the Grand Prix that you win and one day my dad and I would like to meet you. I want to meet you because you inspire me to follow your dream even if it is very dangerous. You also inspire me because you fight for black lives and i’m mixed.
I hope you text me back,

Hi Lewis, I hope you see my message
Today is my 18th birthday. And I wanted to thank you for helping me without even knowing. I’ve been in tough times throughout my life and when I was about to give up, I remembered what you’ve been thru and what you achieved. That thougt always gave me the motivation I needed. You hepled me to overcome difficulties. Today, I’m chasing my dream, studying to be an engineer. One day I’ll meet you in person and say “Yes, I did it”.
THANK YOU ?

Dear Lewis,
my name is Diana and i am from Bulgaria. My husband Stoyko and I are big fans of you. We admire your devotion, passion and perfectionism in everything you do. You are just the best!
I write to you to ask you for a big favour. I’d like to surprise Stoyko with a video-greeting for the Cristmas holidays, sent by you. My initial idea was to ask you about such a surprise for his birthday as this year he turned 44 (your racing car number). Unfortunately i failed. I believe this must be the most emotional and unforgettable present ever!
I really hope that you will receive my letter and grant my request.
P.S. Congratulations for the 7th world cup and stay safe!
Best wishes,
Diana
Dear Lewis!
Of all the years, this was certainly the most intense of all. More challenges, more obstacles, more feelings. However, in the last weeks of the year, I would like to register my gratitude to you, who with all the messages of hope and strength, helped me to finish the year and to deal with my mental health in a lighter way. I am a young researcher who is starting her career in science (I started three years ago) and that during the pandemic I questioned my ability, had my self-confidence shaken and saw my life turn upside down as the anxiety hammered my mind. Your words and your motto “Still I rise” resonated with me in the moment I needed it most and I simply held those words in my heart and continued to walk keeping in mind that I would rise as many times as it took to fulfill my dream of making a difference. Thank you for always opening your golden heart and welcoming each person with your words of light. It may not seem like much, but it illuminated my path in a moment that I no longer believed in hope. Congratulations for all your achievements, you deserve each one of them always.
With much love,
Camila.
Thanks Lewis for being a inspiration that black fathers matter. Black boys rock, black men rock and black dads rock .

Congrats on the 7th heaven title.
Hi Lewis, first of all I’m very happy that you won the race also against COVID-19, you are a real life Champ. The main reason of this massage is to inform you that in this moment in India there is happening the largest protest of human history and after months of peaceful protest now from few weeks the people have decided to surround the capital (New Delhi) in these cold days while sleeping on the roads at the night . It took place after the government passed new bills on agriculture system and let the farmers more vulnerable to the private corporate industry’s. The bad thing is that nobody is talking about it and it can’t be a thing to ignore as these laws affect like 400 million farmers in the first place (that’s why it’s the largest protest of human history). Neither the national media nor the international ones are speaking about it and it’s a shame for everyone us as we all live thanks to what these people produce. I follow you obviously for the amazing driver and champion you are but also for the inspiration you give the other people and that’s why I wrote you this massage because people have to know the truth.
Your sincere fan Tarundeep Singh
Hi Lewis,
Really hope you read this message, I’m not into social media because of all the negativity it brings so just hoping to share my sentiments with you the only way I can.
First and foremost it was so reassuring to hear yesterday that you were beginning to feel great again and have fought the Covid Virus successfully and are aiming to get to Abu Dhabi, such a relief as you are a game changer every time you’re on the track and your presence was missed greatly last week for the 2nd race in Bahrain.
From us as a family we just wanted to let you know how much support and admiration we have for everything you have done to be the successful spectacular formula 1 driver that you are and the victorious anti racism campaigns you have fought. We are so proud of you and have watched you achieve nothing but consistent success since 2007, coincidentally the same year that we had our daughter. Soon to be thirteen and now more than ever her eyes are wide open to the world we live in and as a mixed race girl she has already faced some challenges and discrimination but is becoming a stronger person and focusing greatly on her education with a strong determination of reaching the best grades she needs to give her the best start in life. Thank you for the inspiration you bring to all the children of colour imparticulary. Unfortunately, the world is still not treating everyone equally so 100% YES to ‘Still I Rise’ and a massive congratulations on your knighthood, the 1st mixed race F1 driver. What a skill set you have, an amazing gifted man you are and thank you to your beautiful mum and dad for raising you with such grace and dignity.
Good luck with Abu Dhabi on the Yas Marina Circuit, we’ll be watching and supporting you over the next few days as always and forever ??????
Hi Lewis,
I have watched nearly all of your Formula 1 races since I fell in love with Formula 1 around 11/12 years ago. I played a lot of football when I was younger but as I hit my 30’s I didn’t seem to have the same enthusiasm for Football as I did Formula 1, and I think you are part of that reason. I would love for my son or daughters to give it a try, in fact he recently said he would so I need genuinely need to figure that one out. Anyway, I cheer you on every single race and I hope you are back next weekend even though I loved seeing George battle it out with Botas, and he won in my opinion regardless. In spite of all that I wondered if you would consider checking out my business site. In particular I would draw you to the about us page. I appreciate your time.
Much love,
David

Hi Lewis hope you are feeling better. Strange to think you’ll be watching the race like the rest of us. Tips: Get all your snacks ready, setup your timing screens, take a comfort break. Sit back and enjoy!
Hi Lewis, first, congratulations on your ammazing achivements, at last, you have proved to be the gratest driver, ever, My name is Derek Vizor, I am an industrial designer, cabinet maker and inventor. I have National Design Diploma and a Member of The Society Of Industrial Designers. My reason for trying to contact you is because I know you are very interested and concern about the environement. I have an invention that would solve the worlds energy problem producing NO polution whatsoever, the power sorce is free so would be ideal for under developed countries. the power sorce is simple and inexpensive, again ideal for underdeveloped countries. This one idea could solve all the worlds energy problems and polution problems in one fell swoop. I have spent the last 2 years proving the viability of the idea. I would much apreciat your oppinion of what I am doing. yours sincearly Derek Vizor NDD. MSID
Dear Brother Lewis and all brothers and sisters of the L.H. Motorsport Ltd.,
I’m sorry to barge in unannounced but the situation is quite urgent and we are quite sure that your help can solve it in the best way for everyone. And before any further, I like to heartily thank you in the name of all African Peoples worldwide and all African people in Brazil for your support to the incendiary protests against Carrefour and structural racism in Brazil. Your name is written in the sands of time. We truly believe that the ultimate Brazilian Revolution is underway and you will be forever remembered for your contribution to our Struggle.
My name is Vovô (which in Brazilian means “Grandpa”) and I founded the Bloco Afro Ilê Aiyê back in 1974 with a couple of other revolutionary brothers and sisters. The Bloco Afro Ilê Aiyê started a major cultural revolution in Brazil igniting the foundation of many other similar Anti-racist Organizations, such as the Olodum, which Spike Lee made world-famous through the videoclip he produced with Michael Jackson (They Don’t Really Care About Us) in Salvador, Bahia, Brazil.
Our Bloco Afro has been in the Revolutionary Struggle for 45 years now, but it is currently in a very bad situation, due to many reasons, all of which were severely aggravated by the present political situation in Brazil and further worsened by the COVID pandemic, and that’s why we are appealing to the international community to help us with a fund-raising in order to keep our headquarters and to continue our numerous activities (social work, elementary school, professional training, dance company, band & orchestra, arts school, and so much more).
I hereby reach out to our great brother Lewis Hamilton, one of the most important African revolutionaries of our times, to humbly ask him to post in his social media asking his fans to help us financially. We need indeed a lot of funds to continue with our activities, but if we reach hundreds of thousands of people to donate a little bit of money, we can certainly win this! Especially if we manage to get donations from strong currencies such as Dollar and Euros, which would make it a lot easier to achieve the amount needed, since what is a lot of money in our currency is not that much money in Dollars ou Euros. We have already launched several campaigns, but we reached unfortunately a small number of people, far from enough for our goals, making us still unable to forward our activities and still running the risk of losing our headquarters.
I write you here first to see if Brother Lewis would be able to help us out, and in case of a positive answer, I could send you the material of the last campaign, for his appreciation, so he changes, adds or removes whatever he wants in order to relaunch the campaign through his social media (and through the social media of other brothers and sisters, whom Lewis might be able to bring on board).
I heartily appreciate it if any of the brothers and sisters in the Lewis Hamilton Motorsport Ltd. can manage to carry this message all the way to our beloved Brother Lewis. I put myself at your disposal to discuss the details of the campaign and how Brother Lewis can help out, and to discuss anything that any of you might find necessary to make the decision of helping and start organizing the campaign. We can remain in touch through email, through WhatsApp or Telegram, through video-calls and skype-calls or whatever means that would better suit you. I hope we can win this one together, and that the Bloco Afro Ilê Aiyê can somehow help Brother Lewis back in the near future. Of course, we are fully willing to advertise for Lewis Hamilton, and to use his help in this campaign as publicity in any way he pleases.
One destiny! Black Power!
Sincerely,
Vovô do Ilê
blocoafro.ileaiye@gmail.com
P.S.: exert of Wikipedia’s page about us…
“Ilê Aiyê was responsible for a huge Cultural Revolution in Brazil. It is often mentioned that in Salvador, before the founding of Ilê Aiyê (in 1974!), Black men and women would never wear colorful dresses, would often not enter through the front door, would not wear hairstyles, and Black women would not use lipstick – all because of long-standing racist stigmatizations. This situation has been thoroughly changed for many Afro-Brazilians thanks to the empowerment processes that Ilê Aiyê implemented through Music and through the praise of African Culture and History.”

Aww, there’s just not enough of you to go around. I read a message from a boy who wants to play a computer game with you. How do you say you don’t have the time? Or how do you make the time? Someone needs to explain to him. It can’t be easy.
Hope you are ok, just read you are not well, wishing you a speedy recovery!
I have a small request, same as millions of others,
I would like my partner to meet Lewis Hamilton.(you)
His name is LB and he is not really impressed or excitable about much. However he adores Lewis Hamilton.(you)
LB spends a lot of his time doing for others and in a way neglects himself.
He provides for others, loves to bring joy and always gives 200% percent when helping others.
LB just likes to see people happy.
He is a great father, a great step dad, he supports his mother, and sisters in huge meaningful ways and always tries to extend benefits to his loved ones even if it’s sharing his access to his Spotify or Netflix account.
LB does not ask for a lot and I would love him to meet Lewis or have a personalised message.
Words would not describe the the joy it would bring to me for him to have that experience just imagine how Levi would feel. An Unforgettable Birthday present!
All I ask is that you please make sure Lewis hears this request.
I want him to read this and decide for himself what he would like to do.
Best Regards
Zxx (they are not kisses btw way)
I’m not one to post any kind of public comment, especially when it comes to people but I must say; you sir, are quite the human being and I’m proud to have you as a countryman. Your talent as a racing driver is impeccable and your use of the stage the talent has given you access to is amazing. You are great for the sport and for humanity.
I’m lost for words. Don’t change, keep being you. Show us all nothing is impossible.
Hello Lewis Hamilton, my name is Bobby Binnie and I’m pretty sure you remember me, I’m not sure if you are on this fansite but I’ve written several letters to you I posted on twitter, you haven’t read them yet, but my dad doesn’t work for Mercedes anymore and also COVID has prevented me from seeing you, I’ve seen you 8 times and you told me you were in Call Of Duty. Please remember me.

Hi Lewis champ! About the Roscoe vegan diet… One of my frenchies who’s 7 years old has breathing problems, he had 2 surgeries on it already and it keeps coming back. This breathing problem doesn’t allow him to have the exercise and the normal life he had before, sometimes it’s too bad he can’t eat, because he vomits everything out. Ok i don’t want to keep you reading this for too long so, Is the diet vegan for dog food specifically or vegan food as human diet? Can you send me his diet or something like that please!!! It would be huge help. If you want I can send a picture of my boy too… he’s amazing and just too cute?? thanks in advance lewis, hope you enjoy the championship and the time with your family and Roscoe!
Dear Mr. Hamilton
Until 2018, I don’t believe I had watched an F1 race since Jackie Stewart was driving. (yes I’m that old)
Then my best friend played episode one of the Netflix series and I was hooked.
We now watch every practice, quali, and race on tape delay.
I wanted to relate to you how thrilled we are for your 7th championship, and are continually amazed at the things you are able to do with that machine.
We are planning a trip to Texas for the 2021 race. Hope we get to meet.

Hi Lewis
So proud of your tremendous talent and achievement on the track- the most successful F1 driver ever, but also of the time you give to promote equality and fairness in your sport and outside your sport. Like Marcus Rashford it’s so amazing the time you are willing to devote to the cause when your life is so busy on the track and on the field, but it’s a shame we are still talking about this in 2020. I am 64 and my friend and I (she’s 67) she is widowed and I am divorced, and we are fans of F1 and we love watching you win, and one day hope we can come and see you live. We have both had a brief trip to Monaco though a few years ago which we loved. We love to watch every race on tv. I’ve never been to a grand prix and can imagine how exciting it is. Just watching on tv is nerve racking! Thank you for all you do, your are a lovely person and I’m sure your family must be incredibly proud of you. PS I love Roscoe your gorgeous dog. Good luck for your next race and thank you for all you do. You will make a difference. Best Wishes Gill
Dear Mr Lewis,
I’m sorry to contact you but I don’t know how to get an quick message to Mr Hamilton.
I have worked with a lady (Mandy) for 14 years and two week’s ago sister (Sarah), who she lives with, was suddenly taken ill and to cut a long story short, has ended up having to have her entire large bowel removed. She is currently very poorly with sepsis and in intensive care. Mandy and her older sister (Tracy) cannot visit due to Covid regulations although they were called in at 3am on Tuesday as she took a turn for the worst. She did rally a little and although she cannot speak they know she can hear them as when Mandy told her that Lewis had won the Turkish GP and was now a seven times World Champion she tried to smile and did squeeze her hand. They are all great F1 fans and did go to the British Grand Prix a few years ago which made me very jealous! Sarah installed Sky so they can watch all the races in full.
I am trying to contact Lewis in the hope that he would be prepared to record a short message that they could play to Sarah just to give her a boost. I know he has many calls on his time so understand if this is not possible.
I must explain that I am not very IT literate so I am not on Facebook or any of the other platforms which would probably make this request easier to grant. Mandy or Tracy may be though. If anyone knows how to get this message onto other platforms that Lewis may read that would be great.
If a member of Lewis’ team does read this and he can help please contact me on the email supplied.
Thank you in anticipation of your help.
Yours sincerely,
Jane Gladman

Hello Lewis my son and husband watch ur races EVERY weekend ..I just found a Ferrari remote control car at the store but can not find ur remote control car anywhere !!!! Please help me find one for my son (even though my husband will b jealous)
Racist attack on Lewis’ profile at our ‘Great Black Briton’, exhibition.
Lewis Hamilton was one of 18 profiles of prominant black people in our lives in the ‘Great Black Briton’ exhibition at Christchurch, Hitchin held through-out the summer and into Black History Month. Profiles included Lewis, Marcus Rashford, Lenny Henry, Strictly stars Carla Amfo and Nicoal Adams, Stormzy among many others to include historical figures.
Every single face was spray painted with black paint near the end of October, and the police are investigating.
Hi Lewis Hamilton I am a kid and a big fan of yours and I love watching your races and you are a good sportyour the best at f1 and always will be
Charlie
Dear Lewis
My son used to race karts at Buckmore Park. He had a few races with Jensen Button. You were just coming on the scene when he left, but he remembers you as standing out and showing unusual promise. He’s watched your progress and successes with delight ever since.
This message is really to draw your attention to the email I’ve just sent on behalf of BDS. I support the Palestinians in their cause, and know that as someone who is involved in the Black Lives Matter movement, you would be sympathetic to BDS latest campaign to get Puma to divest from the Israeli Football Association, who are implicated in furthering the illegal activities of the Israeli government against Palestinians. Indeed, the Palestinian Speed Sisters, the first all woman race care team in the Middle East, describe how they are hampered at every turn by Israeli strictures.
I do hope you will take time to read some of those emails coming to you and be able to support the cause.
Many thanks and regards
Jane Clare
Dear Lewis,
I know you are a strong environmental campaigner and a recent post you put up about beach litter and corporate plastic really got my attention. I work at one of the UKs most iconic, and thus busiest beaches – Durdle Door in Dorset, and wanted to know if you would like to help us out with a coastal awareness campaign in 2021? 2020 was beyond imaginable in terms of litter and other associated problems. It wouldn’t take much of your time and would help us no end!
Hope to hear from you.
Kindest regards
Derek
You have fought honestly, faced many difficulties, overcome numerous obstacles. You never gave up and through a path that was not always favorable, you managed to achieve the well-deserved professional success. Congratulations!
No one else you deserve to be living in this moment. You are an example of how persisting pays off, as well as being competent and professional. Know that I admire you in all aspects of your life, and I wish you all the happiness in the world.
You are an example to follow and you are helping me to go through a difficult period emotionally because I was feeling defeated and watching your interviews and your victories I see that it is possible yes, and I will continue … Thank you !!!

Hi Lewis Hamilton & Team,
I am contacting you to see if you would like to deliver a very short presentation either through Zoom/MS Teams or in person to discuss the importance of diversity in the F1 workplace and the range of careers within F1 that our students could explore.
Working in a Careers Guidance team in one of the largest colleges in London, we regularly provide careers guidance to students from a very diverse multi-cultural background, and I feel it’s important for them to know what sorts of jobs they could do, and aspire to do during their education and career journeys.
Admittedly I am Lewis Mercedes F1 fan, so I watch every race. But genuinely I most look forward to the key messages you deliver pre and post-race about BLM and diversity. These messages are extremely powerful, and I always think how amazing it would be if you could share this passion and drive with our students about increasing diversity in F1, and what sorts of careers our students could aim for.
As an ambassador for equality, and an Icon for sport, it would be brilliant if you could spare a few minutes for our students.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Kindest regards.

Hi Lewis,
Congratulations to 93 Grand Prix victories!!! ???? You’re fantastic! I’m also very glad that Mercedes-AMG Petronas won another fantastic season!? Please continue to be such a wonderful person and thank you for supporting Black Lives Matter. Our world needs people like you to stop racism! Never stop believing in yourself and never give up!
Best wishes,

P.S.: I hope Daniel Ricciardo didn’t have smelly feet when you drank from his shoe!!! ?????
Can I reassure Gabriel Andrea Walker that I a, not trying to get Lewis to jack in F1 in the middle of the season to buy a farm! I sent the following through which might explain where I was coming from:
HI Gabriel,
Thanks for the recent post and sorry for the delay in replying. Please re-read my comments suggesting farming as a post-retirement idea for Lewis; I’m not expecting him to jump ship in the middle of the season am I, especially as he had the chance (now taken) to overtake Schumacher’s record? As for practising what I preach, fruit and veg growing in a fair sized garden surely does so as do my numerous efforts via various New Scientist & Guardian / Observer letters over the years on the need to improve farming, increase food security and get new blood into it plus this: https://climatecoalition.org/future-food-security-must-focus-on-supplies/ . I’ve even tried to sponsor methane-reducing feed additives (e.g. Asparogopsis taxiformis) on local farms with little success; farmers are VERY conservative here, hence my suggestion of new blood. I’m not criticising Lewis here; you seem to have jumped in prematurely and defended him from criticisms I haven’t made although that does suggest you are a very keen fan. If you want to look at one unbelievable area for improvement check out the IMechE’s “Waste Not Want Not” report (2013 I think) – at least 30% (and often more) of global food production never reaches shops or markets and there are numerous other lunacies e.g. factory & feedlot methods, rabbit diseases, wasting woodpigeons, fishing throwback (until recently) , killing then wasting unprofitable livestock (see the 1998 & 2007 Shetland culls although the former was stopped –
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/181184.stm and http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/scotland/north_east/7140001.stm), overeating and flattening rainforests for even dafter ideas than cattle feed e.g. coca and colombo-tantalite (see “Blood Coltan”) when they could be carefully utilised in situ – https://www.newscientist.com/letter/mg24032094-400-maybe-we-should-exploit-rainforests-carefully/. By the way “big benefits” was the letters editor fitting the text into the column. I hope this lot is of some interest.
Yell if you want any rhubarb next season though and you’re in the area; we always have some spare. I’m in Whitchurch (Hampshire) and in the phone book.
1 spoon of powdered magnesium took care of my leg cramps when nothing else i tried would work. Congratulations on #92 and the record. I can say I watched it happen.
Maranatha Lewis Hamilton The greatest F1 driver of all time. D. Johnson
Dear Mr, Hamilton,
As an old racing passionate from the 60’s, yet an updated one on today’s F1, sounds corny but I sherish the idea that you would one day race Le Mans with your brother, Nicolas, such a charming warm man.
Personally it would remind me the Rodriguez brothers time, but more important would trigger a huge surprise from the today’s racing world and bring you lots of additional fans, if you need any!
Like writing a new chapter in your legenderay life…
Kind regards

Dear Lewis,
Many! Many ! Congratulations on your achievement . You well deserved it.
Please carry on your fight against social issues that are happening more and more in this unjust world. Poverty and discriminations in every aspects of human lives should not be happening in this century.
You are an inspiration! Thank you.
92 wins ! greatest
Hello Lewis Hamilton,
I have a special video for you because make a new world record. 92 victories in formula 1. That was amazing. I hope that you see the video that I want to give it to you at my Instagram account @faeez.fk_44
Hello, my dear and beautiful Lewis !!
I’m a big fan of yours and I’ve been supporting you since 2007, when you entered F1! My name is Laura Duarte, I’m Brazilian and I have in common with you the fact that I love Ayrton Senna – I even support the same team as our three-time champion! I think you are a wonderful boy !! Do you have any idea how much, dear? Do you know how I mean you to my mom, for example? Brigadeirinho-which is a delicious candy here in Brazil, made with condensed milk and powdered chocolate-which I would love to prepare for you. I tell my mother: “My Brigadeirinho won again!” And she likes you too! I wish you all the best and I am very proud of your achievements on and off the track! Big kiss from a fan who loves you and from Brazil!
Lewis Hamilton, you are our hero of heros, including Nikki and Ayrton! Erin Che Naidoo, Cruz Che Naidoo and Cash Grayson Naidoo. ALL GLORY BE TO THERE O’LORD AMEN!
Dear Lewis Hamilton,
I am from the Netherlands and I have to do a presentation for English at school about a famous English person.
For me it was not really difficult to choose someone. I love Formula 1 and watch every single session, so I wanted to do my presentation about an English Formula 1 driver.
I thought about Lando Norris, George Russel and you.
I had to make the choice on the Monday after the Grand Prix of the Nürburgring, and when you equalled Michael Schumacher’s 91 race wins, I just had to choose you as driver to tell about.
My question to you is: Can you tell me about how it is to be you, Lewis Hamilton, a six time world-champion.
Are you aiming to beat Michael Schumacher’s record of 6 world-championships, or does this season (which I think you are going to win too) feel the same as the other seasons you have won?
I really hope you will respond to me.
Yours sincerely, Sebastiën
Hello Mr Hamilton, I am 8 years old and would really love to interview you for my school project for Black History Month. Please contact me on my Mummy’s email address. I’ve got my fingers crossed that you’ll be in touch really soon. From Noah
I’m old enough to have seen, with enormous pleasure, the likes of Ascari, Fangio, and Moss racing in the German Grand Prix at the old Nuremburg circuit in 1957. I’ve also seen all the in-between champs like Clark, Stewart, Hunt, Mansell, and of course Lauda, Alonso, Vettel, Schumacher and all the other world champs. In my opinion you are the finest driver ever – the toughest, the fittest, quite simply the best. I wouldn’t mind betting Niki Lauda would have anticipated you beating Schumacher’s record of 7 world titles – so go ahead and do it. Good luck in your quest. I wish you well and thanks for giving this old motor racing fan such enormous pleasure.
All the very best
Malcolm
You are a true champion, you would win even in a slower car !
Dear Lewis, As a follower of your career since your Karting days, I would like to express my sincere congratulations on not only your status as a fine racing driver but also to you as a person of faith, with feeling for others and a gentlemanly approach to both sport and life which seems to me, to be without competition throughout your many interests.
As a well rounded individual in a sport based on largely middle class, masculine and Anglo Saxon principles, you have brought to the track an influence which will change it’s history for the better. I applaud you and hope that your career in all forms goes from strength to strength and encourages others from all walks of life and society to follow you in becoming their own person with the dogged determination to succeed on their own merits and with their individual freedom from self restricting ideas.
A wonderful human being,
May you still rise.
Lewis,
I listened to your bucket list- ‘climb Everest, go into space etc. ‘If black lives matter (or any lives for that matter) why not make no. 1 on your bucket list to ‘make a difference to someone’s life.’ You have the means to make a difference and it would be far far more rewarding than climbing Everest, I’m sure.

Why don’t you do something about the farming, the foods and the climate, instead of telling Lewis Hamilton what to do.
Iain Climie, you must practice what you preach, instead of telling others to do things.

I. Climie !
Dear Mr. Hamilton,
It may seem a little early to think about your post-F1 life but have you considered following ex-world champion Jodi Scheckter into farming (although he’ll probably tell you the old joke that to make a small fortune in farming, you’d better start with a large one). You have environmental concerns (e.g. about the impact of conventional livestock – e.g. see the 2006 UNFAOP report and Poore & Nemecek’s paper in Science in 2018) but the seemingly obvious approach of reducing demand for meat and dairy can misfire badly; whether it makes sense to reduce cattle & sheep numbers, their impact per head or both, the emphasis needs to be more on supplies that “eat this, not that”. The following two articles show what I mean, and I hope you find them of interest:
https://climatecoalition.org/future-food-security-must-focus-on-supplies/
https://www.ecowatch.com/how-did-farmer-brown-bring-his-dying-land-back-from-the-brink-2609288934.html
A crucial concern here is that food supplies of all types can fail badly but tat gluts don’t work in fee market, as prices crash and reduce farmers’ incomes. To be fair, Mao’s infamous famine in 1958 to 1962 shows planned economies are usually worse but ideas like restoring fish stocks, even if largely as a back up, and reducing obscene levels of global food waste make sense regardless of what the future throws at us.
Best of luck for the rest of the season,
Regards,
Iain Climie

p.s. the extracts from some articles are included.
Dear Idol,
I admire that you are engaged in several human causes. I will like to tell you what they (F1 and local scammers) are doing here in Brazil to avoid environment laws and destroy a big peace of natural forest in the middle of Rio de Janeiro, Camboatá with 2.000.000 m2 field. All arguments, of F1, local politicians and investing lobbies are pour, like my English. The whole idea is very dark and will benefit only a few privileged persons that are doing anything above the good sense. I´m very concerned with what THEY are trying to achieve. It is time to join forces in what’s happening with RIo, Amazonia, Pantanal, Minas and make them stop hurting and violating our environment. Sorry bother everyone with my concerns, but our government and rulers are very ambitious, immoral and stupid.
I know this isn´t your fight but in the same way can´t see that the cash and power always winning in courts. They don´t care about anything or anyone and forget that when we leave this world, others stay. Dignity fore all…. including our environment.
Best wishes in your brilliant carrier.
Break them all…

Hi Lewis,
My name is Valma James and very proud to know that you are addressing diversity as part of your commitment in facilitating a worldly prospective on economic, social and educational inequalities. I have been challenging inequalities for many years and would like to support your support in raising the profile of your initiative within the community, in which will provide the opportunity for children of African and Caribbean heritage to participate more fully within your profession. I would welcome the opportunity to interview you on AUKRADIO.com about your initiative as part of Black History Month.
I also work with adults with autism at a mental health Hospital Harrow and would welcome an opportunity for you to meet with some of our clients to speak about your career in the motor racing industry, this would build their confidence and self -esteem to hear you speak to them.
I look forward to your response.
Valma James
Hello, my husband is a really big fan of lewis hamilton. I want to get him a fitted hat for Christmas and most of your hats are snap back which he doesn’t like. I like the one with the mercedes symbol to the left and mercedes amg to the right in front. Will you be making this in a fitted hat in the future?
I’m starting a campaign. The International Diversity fund, headlined by BLM heroes. My first of course is Lewis Hamilton. I’m new at this but the site, the Action Network is part of the Obama network, a very reputable place for growing grassroots support. Let’s get this in place for Lewis’s Diversity Commission initiatives.
Hopefully he’ll never figuratively, or literally, stoop that low…
Hey guys I m just an ordinary Lewis Hamilton fan. But what it’s my request and prayers that I want Lewis Hamilton to read what I have written for him in Instagram thorough my account ( Cheema_singh89). It’s very important that’s why I am asking for this. I know no ones going to do anything about my efforts. I don’t want anything from anyone , I just want Lewis Hamilton to read what I have expressed in words for him. And I can promise you he ll be empowered and positive after reading that. Please guys help me and help him out. Just tell him to read. That’s it , nothing else. I just want to see this guy happy and smiling.
hi lewis and fom new zealand a devoted fan who was totally disgusted with the stewards rubbish in russia and without yourself in the running …formula one as a race makes little sense in watching and are sick of all the so called competitors dictating any reasonable race at all and words fail me that i can organise on here but you are truely the real deal
Whilst Lewis Hamilton is a great F1 driver, it is easy for him because he has the best car.I do not think he would win has many has he has if he was driving for mclaren,lotus, williams etc.Plus he should never be knighted while he lives as a tax exile.Just my opinion.
LH,
I look forward to your continued growth as a champion of human rights. When can we purchase copies of your shirts demanding freedom for the Uighur of China? Rohingya and Karen of Myanmar? Or Equal rights and protections for women and LGBTQ in the Emirates, Turkey, or Malaysia? Or perhaps one demanding the arrest of security forces who come to your country and kill Russian dissidents? Thank God we have someone like you to speak up for ALL human rights!!
Free the Uighurs.
I have been a massive fan from way back to your go,carting days.
I have also spent substantial amount of money on various official merchandise
Over the years.
So I feel I am entitled to my comments
Which I hope will be taken as constructive criticism.
I have been alarmed at the sudden turnaround in the opinion of the general
Public towards Lewis.
Here in Scotland his popularity has nose-dived and Social media comments are displaying a deep dislike of Lewis.
This is as a reaction to Lewis,s recent
Views on the race issues that have been
Prominent in politics and news worldwide for the past couple of months.
The George Floyed, Black lived matter movement in particular.
Why cant Lewis see that as long as hes
On the payroll of a company with very strong Nazi as connections, a previous poster boy being Adolf Hitler, people will
See his anti,racism views as utter hypocrisy.
And that’s one thing even his biggest fans have trouble dealing with.
The nazis literally wrote the book on
Persecuting, and terrorising other races
And nationalities that didnt fit thier narrative.
The worst the world has ever witnessed.
Open ur eyes Lewis , if u maintain this serious contradiction the public will turn against you.
Very concearned fan
W.Hill
Lewis, this latest revelation of Brianna’s legacy is appalling.
I know this is an unpopular request, but I suggest you withdraw from the Russian GP this weekend, as a protest against the unjustifiable actions in Louisville.
A message has to be sent, and you are the man to do it.
Don’t get me wrong, I have been a fan of yours since you first hit the news extolling your prowess, and I will continue. But your voice carries strength and impact.
Your choice.
Best of luck in the future (hell, you’ve got this year’s Championship in the bag …:)
Lewis
You are an inspiration for one & all alike, please keep wearing the T shirt

hello my dear Lewis / You are my inspiration I wouild very like to be in your fan club please send me details my addrees is Doreen Tanner 53 Clanway st Tunstall st6 5rg

Doreen
My Dear, please abanDon BLM. say always ALM. LOVE YOUR HANDS AND TYRES FOR EVER. When an artist be politics, they alwways say nothing. From brazil, whit all cares. White or black. Do not comit the same shit of past.
Kisses.
Dear Mr. Hamilton,
I just saw the photo of you in the Breonna Taylor shirt, and I give thanks to God. Just as I did when I read about Colin Kaepernick taking a knee several years ago. These are such important matters – and have been all my life since I first marched in the Civil Rights movement as a child (I write as a 72 year old white American nun in an Anglican order in Oxford). Recently I have been reading a great book for white folk such as myself – “Waking Up White”, by Debby Irving. If white people expect you to teach them how to stop being racist, you might suggest they read this book instead; it’s an eye opener, and teaches us to see racism, in our society and in ourselves, in a direct, understanding way. It’s not up to Black people to stop racism. From my perspective, it’s up to us to listen, learn, empathize, apologize – things that seem so difficult these days (especially in my poor beleaguered country….). Bless you, Mr. Hamilton; I’m glad you’re such a good racing driver, but I’m even more glad to know that you’re such a good, courageous human being, willing to stand up for the truth.
Given these times, I’m worried that you may get hate mail; I just wanted to make sure you get some love mail. I will hold you in my prayer (along with Mr. Kaepernick and others)
In gratefulness and blessing,
Sr. Helen
Hi Lewis, Black Lives Matter and it’s fantastic what people like you and for example Naomi Osaka are doing.
I’m an old guy, 72, white with a black wife and 2 children. I haven’t seen any white people saying BLM, yes in F1 they do bend the knee but your the only one saying something. We need the support of the white people and we need to get them motivated. It’s fantastic what people like you and Naomi are doing but you have to be backed up by tens of thousands of white people to make the breakthrough.
This has been going on my entire adult life and I rather thought it was done and dusted when the USA abandoned their version of apartheid in the 70’s, but of course it was just swept under the carpet.
We need a slogan to capture white people because BLM doesn’t do it, obviously and if BLM matters, which it does of course, we have to capture the opposition because we already have the friends.
With kindest regards
Ian Bradwell
I am a resident of Louisville Kentucky. I have experienced all of the BLM / Taylor riots, protest, and destruction of the protest. Where is your stand for helping all the people that went out of business got hurt lost their jobs over this? It has been over 90 days of protest violent and peaceful. The officers involved should have a day in court, not convicted by social pressure.
Lewis,
Your talent and commitment to F1 is inspirational. Your commitment to BLM is phenomenal beyond words. What you are doing for the average black person and ultimately for everyone (white and black) parallels Mandela’s fight for non-racism, equality and justice.
I wish you all the strength to continue this battle.

Hi Lewis Hamilton,
Honestly I am a fan but my dad is why I’m writing this message to you he is crazy about you (he even bought your calendar). As you probably know not all dads are sentimental and if they are they try to hide it well my dad is like that with your life story he’s read Lewis Hamilton: full story, Lewis Hamilton: my story etc and even though he tries to hide it i can see the tears in his eyes as he has been through a past I don’t even know yet as he doesn’t like to share much but I can tell you he loves a good story so maybe you won’t even get to this message but I just really hope he gets a chance to meet you in person (instead of the reruns on TV) so it can give him almost like a boost to life (and I may even become his favourite child ha ha)
From: Anna (Luis’s daughter)
To: Lewis Hamilton
Dear Mr Hamilton,
I hope this letter finds you well. Congratulations on your continued success in this year’s Formula 1 Championship.
I am writing to further congratulate you on being awarded the Number 1 spot on this year’s Powerlist.
The Powerlist is an annual publication that celebrates 100 of the UK’s most influential people of African, African Caribbean and African American heritage who are either British or living in the UK. The Number 1 award is to signify the most influential black person in the UK for a specific year.
As an award, it is by far the most prestigious of its kind in the UK and is decided on by an independent judging panel, which is chaired by Dame Linda Dobbs, Britain’s only ever black High Court Judge.
Past Number 1s include: Tidjane Thiam, ex CEO of Prudential and Credit Suisse Bank; Sir David Adjaye, the internationally renowned architect; Sir Damon Buffini, the private equity guru; Baroness Scotland, when she was the UK Attorney General; Gina Miller, businesswoman and highly influential Brexit campaigner; Sir Ken Olisa, Lord Lieutenant of London; and Ric Lewis, founder of Britain’s most successful black-owned business. You will be the first sportsman to be named Number 1.
Sponsored by JP Morgan, PwC and Linklaters, this is our 15th year of publishing the magazine, which we send out free to schools and colleges across the country as a role model guide for young black people.
The judging panel, all of whom are influential black people themselves, unanimously chose you as Number 1 this year because of the incredibly brave and selfless efforts you have been involved with in highlighting the need for more diversity in Formula 1, championing the Black Lives Matter cause and launching the Hamilton Commission. They also commented on the dignity with which you have carried yourself in doing so. The fact that you have achieved this while continuing to prove on the track that you are the best Formula 1 driver in history, is all the more remarkable.
If you are able to accept this award, we have just two asks of you:
Normally we host a prestigious dinner, The Powerlist Black Excellence Awards, to celebrate and launch the Powerlist publication. It is the crowning glory of Black History Month in October with more than 300 guests. Over the years, it has been attended by Prime Ministers Gordon Brown, David Cameron and Theresa May, as well as Sadiq Khan, London’s Mayor.
We were scheduled to be at the Savoy, this year. However, the Covid-19 crisis has forced us to think differently and we are hosting a virtual event instead, which means we are able to stream the event globally for the first time. Would you be able to, at our cost, film an acceptance speech for the virtual awards? It would probably not need to be more than three minutes long.
All our Number 1s do an interview with us for the Powerlist publication. So I would like to ask if you would continue that tradition this year? This could be done at your convenience.
Because this has come out of the blue so to speak, I’m sure you will have a number of questions. Please feel free to have anyone from your team get in touch should you need any clarification.
I have attached an electronic copy of last year’s Powerlist publication as well as a video of last year’s Powerlist Black Excellence Awards dinner for you to get a flavour of what we do.
A copy of the magazine as well as a copy of our graduate title Future Leaders has also been mailed to your management team at Lewis Hamilton Motorsports Ltd, SE1 8HA to give you an insight into our publications so I look forward to hearing from you soon, and, once again, congratulations.
Kind regards

As others, my husband and I are fans, however, less so in recent months. Until recently (and I am 82 and white) I have never had a racist bone in my body but BLM is creating racism. I am amazed at just how much. And your blatant support for criminal activity beggars belief. George Floyd was a convicted criminal and a recidivist. Breonna’s boyfriend, Mr Walker, SHOT a policeman. Are you surprised that they shot back. Of course it was unfortunate that Breonna was shot and killed and it is being investigated but surely you do not want to make any police force impotent! Of course black lives matter, as do all lives. Being forced to kneel down, started by the NFL as a protest against Trump and US politics, makes no sense at all. There is much you could do, with your money, to support many black causes. Why not take a more sensible course and retain your dignity? At the 2011 census, 3% of UK population was black. Why do you, and others, expect there to be 50% representation by only 3% of the population? Does that not seem unjust? One of my two daughters had a black boyfriend when she was young (10). When she was 15 I commented that we had not seen him for some time. She said, “Mummy!! He is a drug dealer now.”. This would be a better way for you to spend your time, assisting with problems which face black people in the UK today, instead of inciting racism. Thank you for ‘listening’. Jane
Hi,
I’m kavi. I didn’t use to watch your races. But one day when my uncle was watching formula 1, I was interested to watch the show. Suddenly when I saw you, my heart just stopped their. I don’t know why, but that made me happy. I think I’m in love with you. I hope you’ll see this.
Love You….
Hi Lewis
This is not a message about your ability as as an F1 driver – which is by a country mile the best that the world has ever seen. You are so far ahead as a F1 driver that any discussion about who has been the best F1 driver of all time is meaningless – it is you by a country mile. Absolutely incredible.
My comments are about you as a person. You are so aware of how important what you stand for is – you are the most incredibly honest and amazing person of integrity and belief that I have ever seen. I have always regarded standing up for what you believe in as being the thing that defines people. You are a beacon for what is right and you demand that people listen. That is an amazing quality. It is something I haven’t seen in many people. Thank you for what you do, what you believe and how wonderfully focussed you are. Never stop saying what you say – you are a remarkable human being who will leave their mark on the world. Thank you for everything that you do. People need to get what you are about – you are incredible. Kind regards, Mike
Dear Mr Hamilton, or his management team.My father will be turning 70 in July 2021 and for one of his presents I was hoping to gather some video messages from his idols/heros wishing him a happy birthday.Obviously due to this message you are one, just like you are for me.I would be grateful for any length of video wishing him a happy birthday as I know it would mean the world to him.Many Thanks,Rebecca H.
Hi Lewis
I have been watching you since you were go-carting, because of you I’m a big fan of F1motor sports. I’m 62 years old Jamaican mother and grand mother. I noticed this week things did not go the way you wanted them to go., but always remember that there is always a next time mistakes do happen but you learn from them. Always remember you are a winner you broke barriers no one else have broken before. You represent our race with dignity and grace. Keep inspiring the young people and stay true to who you are. I hope before I retire and migrate gods willing that I would one day see you race live. God bless you my son??
Mr. Lewis Hamilton,
I’m Brazilian and a true fan of Ayrton, and when I see you breaking his records I feel good. You’ve been done a great work and I hope that you hold all the F1’s records.
Thanks a lot for all yours efforts!
Hey lewis your my idol i am staring race karts i am 9 years old plz contact me your my idol
Yeah Lewis, you could’ve gotten a podium at Monza !!! Restart on Softs, Mediums after penalty. 2007 Canada 13yrs later
Lewis, when I was 15 years old, I was convinced that Jimi Hendrix was from outer space because he was doing things with a guitar that were unbelievable. You do the same with a car!
My suggestion for the blm campaign is not ‘we race as one’ but ‘We are One Race’. Let me know if you agree.
Hello my brother Lewis Hamilton.
My name is João da Paixão Cézar and I am an Afro-descendant, your fan since always, from Brazil.
Today you had a terrible news, the death of our loved Black Panter. I am feeling as I have lost my old brother. I am very sad.
But this week we had another terrible news. The unique Brazilian TV station that show the F1 race here will not show that anymore from 2021. The contract with the organisation will finish this years and will not renewed.
As you must know, Brazil has more than 100 Millions of Afro-descendants. We are the most Afro-descendants community in the world outside of Africa and here YOU ARE KING with your tremendous job and competence. When Airton Senna died, we became orphan of a hero and you have filled that empty for us. If from 2021 the f1 race is not displayed here, 100 Millions of Lewis Hamilton fans will be orphaned again and your glorious job until here will be forgotten.
I am not in the position or in the condition to do anything to solve that big problem, but I thing you should do something. I know you care for the black cause worldwide. Take off the F1 display in Brazil it’s the same as not seeing you and you are extremely important for us, for 100 Millions of Afro-descendants, for 100 Millions of Lewis Hamilton Fans.
Please see what you can do to keep the F1 exhibition here in Brazil in 2021 and beyond.
!00 Millions of Afro-descendants and Lewis Hamilton Fans depend on you.
Please halp us Lewis.
Lewis you just drove like a superhuman to get pole, and then you dedicated it to Chadwick, your mate! You are in a class of your own! Good luck tomorrow mate!
Dear Lewis,
I’m a 63 year old white male from Hertfordshire who together with my wife have been talking to my eleven year old boy about racism and privilege.
My father taught me to treat all with equal respect and that to stay silent is to condone.
It occurred to me that I’m very proud of you, your journey and your commitment to right some major wrongs. I wish you every success with your driving career although I suspect your life achievements may well eclipse those on track.
I’ve ridden Silverstone on my motorcycle and a casual calculation reveals that you would lap me over one lap!
You’re a fine man, drop my boy Gene a line if at all possible.
Best regards,
Kevin
Hi Lewis. Black lives matter and so do all lives. Your my star, I am canadian and 72. Needless to say i am still consumed by F1 and all high performance cars especially FI cars.
My suggestion is simple for me but quite complicated for you but maybe not.
Qualify as pole for your next race. Contact your driver apponents and indicate that the final finish positions on the final lap are as the final lap is begun. Slow your cars and cross the finish line in this order. State that yall drivers have said that black lives matter as do all lives and i feel that an F1 message will far exceed the present efforts of NBA, NHL and likley NFL and actually football all over the world for this necessary cause. Lead as you are doing Lewis, you and your racing teams and drivers can really lead the way to a better future for black lives and all lives in my view. Your sponsors are going to support your driver decisions, frankly they have no obvious other options, without your driver skills, they will struggle and likley fail. Allan
Hi my nephew William is a super Lewis Hamilton fan! He’s deaf and mute and has Learning disabilities..but he adores F1 and his face lights up at watching Lewis on the track! Your amazing and have brought such joy into his world ..thank you!!!!
If there is any way of getting a signed postcard he would be absolutely over the moon
Kind regards Karen
Hi Lewis
While I do agree with you that Black Lives Do actually matter, I am more a follower of Martin Luther King in that I judge by the content of a person’s character rather than the colour of their skin. May I respectfully suggest that you research the BLM organisation and its aims. The address below could be a starting point for such research.

Thank you for your time.

Are you for real??? It’s sheer poetry on wheels man and it’s getting better and better. What is your trick. Please reveal the secret so I can use to my own benefit. Lots and lots of love and good wishes for the whole team.
Hello Lewis,
My husband has recently had a diagnosis of terminal cancer. Prior to this, last year for his birthday my son and daughter bought him tickets to attend the British brand price which of course no one could attend. He had a cap and shirt especially to wear, but couldnt. He has been following your career since the start.He has a whiteboard with all the face dates on it and religiously watches the qua!trying round and each race.You are his hero, not just for your racing skills but also your principles and behaviour and dignity. He has been so upset not to have fulfilled his ambition to watch you face live. Is it possible for him to receive a signed picture?
Thank you in anticipation!
Dear Lewis, I’m a great fan of F1 and you’ve been my favorite driver, I believe you’re the best driver in F1 history and will break virtually every record in the record book.
But I believe you’re being misguided on your support for Black Lives Matter. They are a Marxist (communist) group having nothing to do with making the lives of blacks better. People from this Marxist group have been rioting, looting, vandalizing and even killing others here in America and like an insidious cancer, are spreading to Europe. These are not nice people, they’re thugs. Lending your name, support and prestige to this group is a benefit to these racists. I hope you will take the time to research just who they are.
My second suggestion, get rid of your “End Racism” signs. If all it took
Was a sign we could plaster “End
War” and have world peace and harmony. It only inflames people, it does Not end racism. As long as people are different there will be racism. Ignore it and don’t allow yourself to be used as a pawn in the game of “Divide and Conquer”.
Best wishes today in Barcelona and congratulations on your 92nd pole. Well done.

[Animals, Environment, Referendum for the animals, France]
Hi Lewis,
I am contacting you because in France, where I live, a great pro-animal initiative has been launched: https://referendumpourlesanimaux.fr/
This “referendum for the animals”, in such a conservative country as France, is a historical occasion to make things change and is backed by 500 000 citizens (and counting), very prominent figures (the list is on the site) as well as 130 members of the French parliament (we need more).
How about having YOUR public support to convince many more members of parliament and voters to back it ? I know you are a very effective pro-animal advocate, your help could be pivotal !
In short, this is a French referendum about abolishing circuses with wild animals, fur farms, animal experimentation whenever an alternative exists, abolishing industrial animal agriculture, abolishing cages.
These 6 pro-animal measures need 185 members of the French parliament to be put to vote (we currently have 130 supports) and afterwards a few million votes from the general public.
I hope you do read my message and can get back to me !
All the best !
Enrico
Hi, Lewis:
I hope you, your family, friends and team members are well. My name is Natalia Bueno and I’m from Medellín, Colombia. Thanks to my father, who will be 67 this month and has cancer, I’ve been a fan of Formula 1 for 28 years now. (I’m 38). Because of family issues, for about 15 years we could not share the races together. When we could share them again, you were already racing and we both agreed on you as our favorite driver. In 2019 we fulfilled our dream together: we went to the United States Grand Prix and share four days of fantasy. We bought T-shirts and caps from Mercedes; it was a time of a life. Of course, we had to take some extra care because my father started chemotherapy in September 2018.
Over the course of this year, which has been hard on everyone, the intensity of the chemotherapy increased. The oncologist changed the treatment drugs and he has been very sick. He has had a wonderful attitude of overcoming all the time, he has been an example for all of us, but, since the treatment was changed and the symptoms got worse, his mood and attitude has gone to the floor; the same has happened to his wife, his great support.
I have taken the liberty of writing to you and telling you all this because his birthday is on August 29th. I am his only daughter and I need to get his spirit up and get him back to his old attitude: “yes we can, and we will get out of this”, but I haven’t succeed in this effort. I know that you can help me with this, and that is why I am asking you a great favor: a short video message of happy birthday to my father. I know that hearing you will bring his mood back and fight back his cancer. His name is Alvaro Bueno, but we call him Nano. He will be 67 years old, and I have faith that, with your message, he will live many years more. I assure you that I will keep you informed. I am sending you a couple of photos; one is when we were at the grand prix and the other is how he looks right now.
I understand it is difficult because of your agenda, and especially now that you are running and leading the stands, but I think that short message can have a big impact on my father’s attitude to fight cancer, especially after the last race, where you win overcoming the problem with your front left wheel: it is an example of how a winning attitude can overcome any difficulty. By the way, I love the new color of the car, your helmet and the message you pushed for all the teams to support it, simply spectacular.
Thanks infinitely for reading my message and I hope with all the faith in the world that my father can have your message.
Natalia Bueno.

Hi Lewis
I’m working on BHM 2020 for the Hertfordshire community and one of the themes for this year is successful/inspiring BAME individuals from the local area. It would be great if you were able to contribute an article, podcast, short interview etc.
Kind regards
Caroline
Dear Lewis,
Warm greetings all the way from the Philippines.
I am leaving this message with fervent prayer that you will get the chance to read it.
I have a son who since childhood had been an avid fan of cars and now as a young man, he has been following your journey as a top-notch F1 driver.
I know that he wishes to one day be able to see you race and possibly meet you in person. I am too is a fan and i have read articles that you have been giving your fans from all over the world surprises and rare chance to meet you.
If by any chance you read this, please find it in your kind heart to reply and send a message back for my son, Ralph.
All the best Lewis?
With fondness,
Edna Ceniza
When you get time to relax I do hope you can send a reply to your most loyal K 9 fan a female springer spaniel always in front of the tele like you keep it up
Hi Lewis, Have tried to contact you through several of your social mediums, however I have received no reply or even acknowledgement. Please view you Instagram inbox regarding a matter you may or may not be interested in. Thank you
Hi Lewis, my name is lance I love watching you I just won my first gokart race, I want to meat you one day if you could see me race one day please answer me back.
Hi, mr Hamilton.
I hope all is fine with you.
You seem to be a man of faith, love and family and I really hope you could help me with one thing though I understand your busy schedule.
My husband is turning 30 in september and are a hugh fan of you and F1. He is a wonderful and loving man that does everything for me and our daughters (2y/o and 6months old). He truly deserves The best and has always dreamed of seeing a F1-race IRL. I saved for a year and arrenged for him to finally pursue his dream. In september he was supposed to go to from Sweden to Italy and Monza for the whole weekend and see you race. Then Covid-19 arrived and everything was cancelled and moved to next year. Now I am standing with The most awesome birthday present to The man I love The most, but for next year and had nothing this year. The money are frozen for the trip which means that I in no way can buy something equaly as good to give him this year. Would you like to help me do something Great anyway? Maybe a greeting from you where you announce next years gift would be as near equally cool as The gift itself possible?
Crossing my fingers for your attention
Kindest regards
Hanna
Hi Lewis Hamilton. My name is Louis and I Live in Hamilton New Zealand so our names are kind of the same! I am 6 years old. I Like your formula 1 car. How did you win with the puncture?.

Thank you so much if you can take our request in consideration.
Here a phone number to join us : +447907992305.

Hi, I understand Lewis is a collector of Ayrton Senna memorabilia; I have a leather briefcase which was owned by Ayrton Senna. I was given the case by the crew of his private Hawker 125 Aircraft …. full details are available. Would Lewis be interested in owning the case?
Hi my name is John wheeler I been trying to locate a signed baseball cap or signed helmet

I’m disabled with serve arthritis in both knees and lower back so can’t get around to well struggle to walk far or stand to long
Any help would be grateful
Many thanks
John
well done l h especially for blm but the blm group are fortunate the real black lives that matter are the 3rd world children where adults make them carry water,(slavery)children forced marriage, starvation,body mutilation,etc surely these groups of society are the real black lives that matter just a thought
Hello. I am enquiring about a possible video chat with Lewis Hamilton. This is for my dad who sadly has cancer that can’t be treated. My dad has always been such a huge F1 fan and has always been on team Lewis. He absolutely loves Lewis Hamilton and over the years I have got him many signed things from Lewis. Would there be anyway what so ever to have just even a minute on a video chat with him for my dad. This truly would be the best gift he could have.
Charity help request.
I am hoping Lewis would help in my project raising funds for the mental health charity Mind. I have launched the sale of a photobook with all profits going to Mind. I have some celebrity signings (eg Stephen Fry plus rugby internationals) but looking to sell LH signed copies for more.
Mental health is a huge issue now but fund raising has collapsed. His help would be hugely appreciated. I live near Mercedes Brackley so could easily come in, or could send ‘book-plates’ to be signed (A4 labels).
See my website for details of project, all the images and to buy the book.

Thank you so much
hi Lewis my email is jettn@maristschool.co.nz please can you send me a picture of you or a autograph my name is jett im 10 years old and i live in new zealand
Hello Lewis, glad to see you heading the drivers championship again, looking forward to your 7th and 8th…
I’m a total fan of yours and I pray you read this.
Firstly you’ve worked too hard and for too long to let black lives matter piggy ride on you and turn you to their lackey? Yes the fight against racism is real, but you should have done it with your name only, and on your own terms.
The BLM movement has a lot of baggage you don’t need to carry, and when that shit hits the fan, all the ambassadors would get hit. You could have said the same things, and created the same awareness without attaching yourself as an ambassador for an organization you didn’t create and have no real control over. You’re giving your name and hard work to things/ people that you have no say over, who instead could control you.
Secondly, you’re being goaded by ill meaning friends to go on this vicious and unwarranted attacks on anyone who makes a contrary statement or something in formula 1.
You need to live and let live. This alienation strategy you’re following will lead to a very bitter place. One of your most beautiful characteristics is the way you’ve always showed respect to the legends of the sport. Max doesn’t have that, he came with talkdowns and disrespect especially towards you, and will definitely reap that down the line.
Don’t follow that route, that’s not what got u the admiration and respect you have around the world. Calling people ignorant and uneducated is belittling and unnecessary. You’re doing more harm than good. You’ll achieve more if u reached out in friendliness than the way you’re going about it.
Thirdly, you’re not going to solve the problem of racism singlehandedly, you’ve started a good thing, but it should be a long term project, not an ‘all at once or else’ thing.
Now the post race news is all about who you’re insulting next, rather than the brilliance of your driving. If Nikki were alive and he had a public contrary View to yours on this matter, would u Insult him too? Would you then be better for it?.
Step away from people who are pushing and pulling you along this very negative route. They seek to rebrand you and erase all the love all races have for you, You need to stop and steer your own ship.
The Hamilton foundation is a good initiative, get a think tank to figure out how formula 1 can do more to be inclusive, get university students to brainstorm on the way forward. Present your findings to the F1A and work to see a change, focus on your foundation and do all you can there, but whatever you do stop the constant whining and complaining about how white and racist formula 1 is. Yes you don’t use those exact words, but that’s what it sounds like.
Don’t take the knee at every race, stand sometimes, in solidarity with those who want to end racism but are not members of the black lives matter movement. Sometimes, Wear the T-shirt that says end racism. Meet people halfway, rather than insisting there’s only 1 way. Appreciate the little they’re doing, rather than making it look like it all doesn’t matter until they take that knee. I’ve heard u say it doesn’t matter whether they stand or kneel, but your body language says otherwise.
I hope u get to read this, I wish you the absolute best. I tried and searched for a way to make this a private message but your couldn’t find a way to send it.
Nobody deserves a knighthood better than you, but jealousy and meanness is holding that up. But still you rise.
Hi Lewis I just want to give yoy my uptmost support for what you are doing for anti racism I grew up in Ladywood Birmingham West Midlands I also went to cardinal newman school in Birmingham I have an Irish descent background and like a lot of Irish we had a lot of racism against ourselves in the seventies because of the pub bombings. I feel that formula one should do a lot more to fight against racism because it does look like it doesn’t do enough and it has such a worldwide audience that oeope would certainly look at what it says and look at that and maybe get more influenced and look at racism throughout the world the only way to fight against iris by education in schools because with educating these people we will erradicate this disease please keep on fighting this cause Lewis because you being such a well respecter sportsman you can help re-educate these uneducated bigots keep fighting lewLeand I hope you defend you world championship again for as many years as you possibly can . Stephen Roberts
I’m a long time fan. I have particularly respected your humility for many years. But I am genuinely concerned by some of your recent comments since the inexcusable death of George Floyd by a small group of criminals who happened to be members of a police force that should have rooted them out long ago.
Absolutely agree that racism must be eliminated. No question whatsoever But as a dual citizen living in the US please understand that taking a knee is NOT the same as being anti-racist. Not even close. The great Dr King would indeed have been at odds with the anti- any race other than African-American dogma of the BLM Organization. So please consider refraining from criticising other drivers who likely share your goals yet elect to act in other ways. It detracts from the more important message and looks petty.
You have expressed concern about U.K. history from 350 or so years ago when some Africans were enslaved and thereby denied all civil and legal rights and treated as third class citizens (women of any color or race were the second class citizens at the time). Yet you seem to have no similar concerns about the only 80 years ago conduct of your sponsor Hugo Boss and indeed your Mercedes team. How can you possibly reconcile your recent comments while promoting the company that made uniforms for the SS and working for an entity that exploited Jews, gypsies, LGBTQ as slave labour far more recently ? These victims, in their millions, were not just enslaved, but summarily tortured, experimented on and ultimately simply murdered. These businesses were no fans of people of color either! I do not recall you even once speaking out against anti-semitism when you applauded the removal of a relatively obscure statue from Bristol. Surely an element of hypocrisy there?
You do not live in a multi-racial community or even in a multi-racial country. You could learn a lot by actually living in the country where you were raised or anywhere else with a wonderful mix of different races and cultures. And while government finances are depleted because of the virus, the social programs that are so desperately underfunded in Black communities would really benefit if you were tax resident in the U.K. to help.
Finally, please consider that, during the BLM marches and riots in Chicago, police resources were spread so thin that urban communities had no patrols at times. Something like 18 innocent people of color were murdered in just one day. Two dozen in one weekend. Scores of others shot. Horrific, record statistics. And there have been many more deaths and horrific injuries across this country as a result of the BLM protests. Not to mention the increased spread of a virus that disproportionately kills people of color. The sad truth is that most African Americans who are unlawfully killed are murdered not by the police but by other African America males. It has been this way for decades. If role models like yourself spent as much time urging people of color to respect the police, not to protest or hold street parties during a pandemic, and attacking rioting and gang violence, plus ensuring young African Americans receive a proper education when so many do not, then perhaps you could actually make a difference and save some lives.
Thank you.

Lewis,
You are a credit to the sport and the human race. Watching you develop and mature over the years has been an inspiration. Keep on keeping on, stay safe and relish every moment of your gifted life.
All the best mate.
Dear Lewis, I’ve been a fan of yours for years and like everyone else with a heart was horrified by the manner of the death of George Floyd , but please investigate the Black live Matter organisation before you continue to support them. They are a marxist group that wishes to destroy the family unit, do away with normal male-female relationships, destroy capitalism, defund the police and several other weird aims that I can’t believe you approve of. Are you aware of this? Do you agree with these aims? Please check out the behaviour of the British BLM leader Sasha, she’s dangerous. Please PLEASE investigate BLM.
Hi Lewis we’re in our 70s and have followed F1 for years. One day we saw this bonny, humble, enthusiastic, motivated, ambitious, exceptionally talented young man and his dad. We were blown away. So down to earth and just ordinary British guys. We’ve followed you ever since and it made us even more proud to be British. BLACK didn’t even come into it. You could have been sky blue pink with yellow spots on! Are you black or white or biracial? So your dad is black and your mum white but it’s your sheer skill and determination that most people see. I am so sad that you’re getting political now. A black man was murdered in America by a white police officer and that was disgusting. However white police officers are murdered by black men, white policemen are murdered by white men and black men and white men are murdered all over the world. All lives matter Lewis and yes racism goes on. It is getting better but slowly and its rife in every single country in the world. Slavery also was and is still going on. Read your history and go back thousands of years. Blacks in Africa rounded up black tribes for gain to enable the slave trade. The Egyptians, the Romans, the Chinese, the japenese, the Indians, the Germans throughout the words history. You could use your high profile to help educate the world population. We have friends who happen to have black skin and some of their beliefs and culture are very different but we also have a lot in common. I believe Britain is trying hard so please don’t be so political and concentrate on your next world title. Good luck
Hi Mr Hamilton,
Ferrari / Italiani don’t need to kneel to prove they are not racists!
Maybe you out of ignorance, or maybe because you are always around having fun on the track, or maybe you are enjoying your money around the world as a rich man who will NOT KNOW, OR DOES NOT EVEN, THAT WE DO NOT NEED TO DO BEAUTIFUL ONLY WHEN SOMETHING UGLY HAPPENS AS IN AMERICA TO THAT POOR MAN KILLED, AS ALL DAYS FOR TENS AND TENS OF YEARS WE WELCOME HUNDREDS AND THOUSANDS OF CLANDESTINES (AND NOT ALL GOOD AND GOOD!) AT OUR EXPENSES AND SELLING HEALTH CARE, CLANDEDTINI THAT NO ONE IN EUROPE WANTS, NOT EVEN HIS COUNTRY THAT HAS SEEN GOOD TO EXIT FROM THE EU TO LESS THE PROBLEM OF IRREGULAR IMMIGRANTS.
A REAL INVASION OF ITALY!
EVEN TODAY AT THE TIME OF COVID, THEY ARE ALREADY SICK IN A COUNTRY THAT HAS BORDERS CLOSED BUT NOT FOR THEM!
PERSONALLY I HAVE NEVER SEEN YOU HERE TO GIVE A HAND, DRESSED IN BLACK MAYBE!
I HAVE NEVER HEARD THAT YOU HAVE MADE MONEY TO THE ITALIANS FOR IMMIGRANTS OR HAVE MADE CONGRATULATIONS FOR THE WORK AND THE HELP GIVEN TO THESE PEOPLE BUT, I DISAPPOINTLY KNOW THAT YOU KNOW ONLY WHAT HAPPENS IN THE BOX AND ON THE TRACK.
YOU THINK OF IT TWICE BEFORE TALKING, LOOK WELL AROUND, AND DO NOT BEAUTIFUL ONLY ON BIG OCCASIONS, BECAUSE WE HAVE DONE ALL THE DAYS HERE!
Best regards from Italy
Have fun on the track
AND ALWAYS: FORZA FERRARI!
Best
Marco
Hello Lewis, see the scene repeating itself in Brazil … White policeman stepping on the neck of a black woman …https://g1.globo.com/sp/sao-paulo/noticia/2020/07/13/doria-diz-que-imagens-de-violencia-policial-contra-mulher-negra-em-parelheiros-causam-repulsa-e-condena-conduta-de-pms.ghtml
hi lewis I think you are a wonderful person.for what you do for the younger people is wonderful.just to let you know I would stand bye you and say black life matters.it doze not matter where you come from we should all be able to live the way we want to
F1 boycotted South Africa during apartheid as did most other sports (sadly not all and F1 a little late).
What did the boycott achieve?
It showed the people of South Africa that the world cared and it showed the Government, their behaviour was unacceptable.
It didn’t end apartheid, but it helped.
Taking a knee is a public display that racism is unacceptable and Black Lives Matter. It is a stain on F1 that 6 drivers chose not to make that display.
To the fools who criticised Lewis for taking a knee, of course all lives matter, that’s a given. Unfortunately some fools need a reminder that Black Lives Matter AS WELL.
I hope to see ALL F1 drivers take a knee before every GP and any driver not willing to show support, you face a very awkward discussion with your grandchildren in the future.
I have to say I have developed a great deal of respect for you and your fight against racism. As a single mum to 3 biracial sons, 1 of which is crazy about F1 he’s 11 now and has been crazy about it since age 5. His dream is to be an f1 driver but he has so much going against him , financial and his ethnicity. As a mum you want your kids dreams to come true and I tell my kids they have the power to succeed at anything they put their minds to but reality is getting into f1 is extremely difficult even for a white person and he feels saddened that the colour of his skin could effect his future. He’s such a great kid, hardworking at school, very bright, god fearing, respectful, kind, cheerful with the cheekiest smile and loved by all his peers. He has a determination though that I hope and pray will help him achieve all he sets out to do. He has never seen the colour of his skin as a problem before until the tragic recent events and all the news of BLM, He has always been proud of his roots and the colour of his skin. He deeply admires all you are doing to stand against racism and to want more diversity in f1 too. Maybe one day with all your hard work he might be racing in f1 too. So please keep up the fight and the awareness, as people are listening, people are talking more and more about racism and they are being educated to something they often felt didn’t exist. I pray that one day everyone can be as equals. God willing ?? Well done Lewis don’t listen to any haters, keep getting your voice heard x
We have been fans for a long time Lewis but you have now lost that. Your “taking a knee” was totally inappropriate. You are a privileged human…part of the HUMAN race. This BLM group are a dangerous Marxist group…go and look at their website!!! The only one we should kneel too is God almighty. You could do so much for far better and more worthy causes than this one that seeks to tear our world down. And you my friend is one they will come after. You have so disappointed so many fans…we are gutted.
I agree…
I like the majority of sane people believe in ending all discrimination but I also believe ALL LIVES MATTER regardless of race, religion, ethnic group, nationality, colour, sex or sexual orientation.
To say BLM is racist, to say ALL LIVES MATTER is not.
Read the BLM webpage then decide if you agree with their policies.
Who will Lewis call if his home is burgled or his family is harmed or threatened, will he expect a defunded police force to turn up – oh there wont be one if BLM has their way, so who will there be????
You become a hatemonger. I was your big fan, I’m not anymore. Aren’t you afraid that karma will find you, somewhere in the corner at 250? I don’t wish you anything bad of course, but don’t be racist towards whites. Because a lot of black people misinterpret!! your clenched fist.
Motosport fan
Lewis
How dare you!
I have supported you throughout your career, and never seen the colour of your skin…in my eyes you were simply a fantastic British driver.
You are now an extremely successful, and rich individual, who has built his career upon the support we as British supporters of formula one have provided.
You are extremely talented, and thoroughly deserve the riches your success has afforded you…but how dare you ridicule others, who do not have a racist bone in there body, to somehow suggest that refusing to ‘take a knee’ is somehow disrespectful?
I am not going to try and disrespect your growth to world champion, as many are trying to do! But rest assured, after your recent comments, I will never again consider you to be an ambassador for the uk in motor sport!
Taking a knee is a symbolic statement brought about by politicians in support of organisations like BLM. I would greatly appreciate you taking a look at the BLM website, and there agenda. As a lifelong fan of yours, I would love to hear your opinion on where this Marxist organisation wants to take this world.
Why couldn’t you just remain the extremely talented icon we all adored? Unless you can convince me otherwise of your agenda, I will never support you again!
Lewis I have no doubt that you will NOT read this but I think someone needs to tell you how hypocritical you are being about slavery.
It isn’t just the black race that have suffered from slavery, if you look back at the HISTORY OF THE COMPANY YOU WORK/DRIVE FOR you will see that during the war they admitted to using 40,000 SLAVES in their factories supporting the Nazi party who were the most oppressive political regime of modern times.
The Nazis differed from other regimes throughout history which used slave labour. Romans and Greeks, for example, valued and revered their forced labourers while the Nazis treated them with immense cruelty using slave labourers like cattle, to be worked to death.
Daimler, which owns Mercedes, admitted as far back as 1986 that it had employed 40,000 forced labourers under appalling conditions during the war enabling it to reap massive profits.
I know this isn’t black history and so is probably of no interest to you but do a little bit of research (there is lots available on the internet) before posing as holier than though about matters that you obviously have no knowledge.
I for one will no longer follow you or your sport any more until you recognise that yours is not the only race, religion, ethnic group, nationality, colour, sex, sexual orientation or group of people who fell they are not treated equally.
I like the majority of sane people believe in ending all discrimination but I also believe ALL LIVES MATTER regardless of race, religion, ethnic group, nationality, colour, sex or sexual orientation.
To say BLM is racist, to say ALL LIVES MATTER is not.
Stop looking down from your prestigious and pampered lifestyle and acting like A DUMB SHEEP LIKE THE PROFESSIONAL FOOTBALLERS AND START THINKING FOR YOURSELF.

Have a good season ,the best for you and “have fun”
thanks,Merci
Gef
I have been a loyal fan since Lewis was racing, I followed your career and always supported you.
Unfortunately now you think the English people think you are a racism when you don’t even live in England and it saddens me.
I was a great fan of Michael scumhaker and I hope you will beat his record.
White lies matter just as much and am very sorry I cannot suppprt you any more and hope bottas wins this year.
I don’t suppose I will get a reply.
Hi I would like to get in contact with Mr Hamilton with reference to a private matter about Animal liberation. It is about a book I have written and I need to check legally I am ok saying what I have said and also I would love him to read it and write a review for it as it is about content that would interest him. I have sent an email to the team address. The book is with the publisher so I am hoping for a speedy response if possible. I want to use my platform to help the innocent and I admire Mr Hamilton for the way he uses his. I really hope you reply and can help me. Thank you.
my friend lewis
I’m sending you this message to make you realise where are we going in this era of over politics
I know you have at heart good intention about fighting racism as a black man myself I understand that
I respect what you did since day once in F1
but there’s something you can’t end and this is racism don’t jump into the hype van specially with black lives matter they are using you for their own interest and worse they really don’t care about black people to start with
mostly black lives matter hates successful blacks like you
if they really cared like they said they with try to raise the black community
up to now outside rioting threatning people and mostly act with pure hatred and racism against non blacks they did nothing
don’t fall into the white supremacie thing because you are the proof that white supremacy doesn’t exist if it was the case you’d never reach such a level of achievement if it was the case you wouldn’t have a chance to get where you were right now
the killing of blacks by cops aren’t that high as the media tried to show you george floyd was the 2nd or 3rd one this year so far last year 9 has been killed the number of black killed by cops is falling
strangely in the CHAZ 4 black has been killed by the CHAZ «police» or the rioters who took over the place where black lives matter should matter but they were the only victims
you talked about inclusivity in F1 by saying there’s no blacks outside yourself in F1
as a driver it’s true you’re the only one don’t forget that willy t ribbs tested a brabham back in 86 and he has been invited by bernie ecclestone
there’s blacks who work in F1 I see it many times over the years
don’t mix inclusivity and well deserved place once again you are the proof that you can reach F1 being black and you have a lot of talent to back this up
I don’t want to see blacks or women in F1 for the sake of inclusivity with no skills to justify their presence
so just focus about racing forget the politics it’s dead weight in your career and want you to end your career just like you started
I know you are pretty busy with racing wich I couldn’t wait any longer!
do what you can do best : WINNING!
do it for your fans friends and family
take care of yourself and I wish to see you in person
Hi Lewis. Good luck in the upcoming season. Wish you all the best. I was wondering if you could do something about the Chinese Grand Prix. Due to draconian laws passed by the Chinese government I was wondering if you could speak out about it or possibly trying to get the race suspended indefinitely. I realize that large corporate sums are involved, but with the new awareness finally taking hold around the world I feel it’s the right time for change no matter what the Color of your skin is. Thanks for taking the time to read this and warmest regards
Nick Gallagher
HI
Cannot find a contact link off the Lewis website so have sent email here.
I have to say that appaling as slavery is there are many facets and the piece below is here to put another facet into the dark and lamentable crime as described by lewis.
Slavery of Africans by Africans
Various societies in Africa and Asia enslaved prisoners of war. Slavery was also widely practiced amongst the Indians in the Northwest Coast and Eastern Woodlands of the United States, as well as on the islands in the Caribbean Sea. Lynn H. Nelson, from the Department of History of Kansas University, noted that African complicity was an integral part of the African slave trade.
“It is difficult to determine when slavery became an important economic factor in African history. Certainly African enslaved each other from an early date; this is a common feature of most societies pursuing an agriculture based on manual labor. By about 900 A.D., however, a regular slave-trade had developed between the Niger River valley and the Muslims of Spain. With Negroes brought from West Africa and Slavs from Russia, the Spanish Muslim capital of Cordoba became one of the greatest slave-markets in the world. With the decline of Muslim Spain, this bulk of this trade shifted to East Africa. By this time, some peoples of Africa had come to depend upon the slave trade, and Zanzibar had become the great slave emporium. Wars between African tribes were not fought to kill, but to take prisoners who could be exchanged with Arab slave-traders for imported goods. It has been estimated that 25% of the slaves taken out of Africa ended up in Muslim lands. Even more important, this centuries-old trade had rooted the institution in the African economy and had established the general pattern of that trade.”[25]
Zayde Antrim has also pointed out that African slavery was in existence well before the arrival of the Europeans.
“Not only was slavery an established institution in West Africa before European traders arrived, but Africans were also involved in a trans-Saharan trade in slaves along these routes. African rulers and merchants were thus able to tap into preexisting methods and networks of enslavement to supply European demand for slaves. Enslavement was most often a byproduct of local warfare, kidnapping, or the manipulation of religious and judicial institutions. Military, political, and religious authority within West Africa determined who controlled access to the Atlantic slave trade. And some African elites, such as those in the Dahomey and Ashanti empires, took advantage of this control and used it to their profit by enslaving and selling other Africans to European traders.”[26]
Hugh Thomas in his book on the history of Slavery, The Slave Trade, has detailed the African involvement in the production of victims for slavery. African monarchs often bought slaves from dealers, in order to sell them again to Europeans, to other Africans, or to Arabs especially. The rulers of Benin, the kings of Ashanti, Congo, and Dahomey; and the Vili rulers of Loango, sold great numbers of slaves over many generations. Jean Barbot, who was on a slave ship during the 17th century said “the slaves [whom the African monarchs] possess and sell are prisoners of war, or, if from among themselves, are condemned to slavery for some crime. But there are also those who have been kidnapped by their compatriots, these being mainly children…”. The Muslims in Africa also had a heavy interest in the slave trade. Hugh Thomas noted that the Muslims traded their African slaves to many countries, selling them as far off as Java and India in the Middle Ages; and even to the Chinese.[27]
Richard Hellie in Slavery in Russia 1450-1725 says,
“In Africa down to the 1930’s, the various tribes continued to raid one another to capture slaves both for domestic use and to sell to outsiders. Moreover, in spite of the picture presented in Alex Haley’s Roots, white slave traders almost never entered the interior in pursuit of prey but rather purchased their cargo from Africans at the ocean front; coastal Africans would not allow Europeans either into or through their own countries …some scholars claimed that slavery in Africa was a response to the international slave trade, but it is now obvious that (Black) slavery was an old domestic institution that was adapted for supplying the international market when it developed.” [28]
Hellie’s view was echoed by Thomas Jackson in American Renaissance.
“Among the Tuareg of the southern Sahara, during the 19th century 70-90% of the population were probably slaves. In the Sahel and the savannah, half the population might be slaves, while in the forests the figure could be as low as 10 to 20 percent. Professor Oliver in “The African Experience” argues that the European and American demand for slaves may not have increased the supply. White slave traders almost never ventured into the interior and were dependent on a varying supply over which they had no control. They followed the flow of captives rather than create it, shifting their bases up and down the coast according to where tribal wars were producing the most slaves. Africa clung to slavery long after it was abolished elsewhere. Between the world wars, Liberia, founded by freed American slaves, was censured by the League of Nations for practising slavery.” [29]
An article from the Mel Fisher Maritime Heritage Society in Florida shows how widespread slavery was at that time.
“At the dawn of the transatlantic trade, slavery was not new, nor were Africans the only people to be enslaved. Slavery is mentioned in the Bible, and most ancient societies including Egypt, China, India, Mexico, Peru and Greece made use of slave labor. Slaves were usually prisoners of war, conquered peoples, debtors or criminals. In Europe, the Roman Empire took slaves from every nation it overcame, including England, France, Spain and Germany. Slavery persisted in the Mediterranean Basin throughout the 17th century.
The institution of slavery was present in Africa long before the arrival of Europeans on its shores – slaves had been taken from parts of the continent since the time of ancient Egypt. In the early 19th century, caravans of 18,000 to 20,000 black Africans were brought to Cairo for resale, and slaves of every color were sold in the great markets of North Africa, even as late as the first part of the 20th century.
…By 1650, most of the coastal states in Europe had possessions in the Americas. The Spaniards dominated Central America, the Dutch and Portuguese colonized in Brazil, and the English and the French had settlements primarily in the West Indies and North America. All of these countries eventually imported slaves from Africa to support their American colonies. European royalty, nobility and leading merchants were the principal supporters and benefactors of the slave trade.”[30]
The Economist admitted that the British, French, Spanish and Portuguese were not the only people involved in the African slave trade.
“In Africa, slavery was accepted as the norm in most societies. Before Europeans arrived, and long after, millions of Africans were marched north across the desert by Arab traders. Most had been taken in war. The guns given in exchange helped wars to multiply and grow larger. Prisoners who might earlier have been absorbed into the victor’s army or workforce, or killed, were now fed to European and American ships seeking human cargo, from Gambia round to Mozambique. Other Africans were sold as slaves because they owed a debt; some even by their own families. Some, like Equiano, were simply grabbed; though only in the early years by Europeans, because that upset relations with the African coastal kings, who wanted to keep control of the trade.”
“Between the mid-15th century and the late 19th, 12m Africans, about a third of them women, made that voyage. Whites had found a new world, and needed blacks to exploit it. Seized – by other blacks, not whites – force-marched to the coast carrying ivory or copper, then inspected like animals, sold and crammed into ships, they made the 30-40-day voyage chained and forced to lie in their own ordure and vomit. Then taken out, inspected again and resold, they were branded and forced to dig in mines, clear land, plant and harvest sugar.”
“Gradually in the 18th century an anti-slavery lobby built up in Europe, notably in Britain, the superpower of the seas. In 1772 Lord Mansfield, a judge, ruled that a runaway slave there could not be forced back by his master to the West Indies. The ruling was interpreted (questionably, but this was the effect) as confirming that there could be no slavery in Britain. In America, it created fears that Britain might try to abolish slavery in its colonies. The desire to maintain slavery was not the least motive for the American war of independence, in which some blacks fought on the British side. In 1807 Britain banned the slave trade, and began using its navy to stop it. But slavery itself did not end in the British Caribbean until 1838, in the United States (in practice) 1865, in Spanish-owned Cuba 1886, in Brazil 1888. The memory of slavery and its lasting social effects sour race relations in Europe and America to this day.”[31]

Hey Lewis, i know this page is managed for you and that theres no doubt thousands of messages to you most probably daily and that you yourself will not ever see this but why not msg you.
Firstly i hope you have kept well and have good prep for the new season and hope you have an awesome opener when we get underway.
Also wanted to share that i was lucky enough to win and A45 the other week and has become my dream car (that i could potentially afford at some point in my life) Since i drove one at MB world. I was living in dreamland and was going to invite you to get away from your hectic lifestyle and get back to just hanging out with an average Joe and i guess a normal family life , since you have now moved on from that due to your talent and devoted father and family. Truely inspirational! I live 20mins away from Snetterton and was going to invite you to show me how to drive the new car I have won. Now you can see why i’m living in dreamland but hey why not? What a story to tell the grandkids when i get old lol.
I guess there are many fans that would give an arm and a leg just to hang out with you but would also splash it across social media, which i would understand but totally does not respect you and your privacy which no matter how famous you are, still fully deserve.
Im also intrested in you and your personality away from what everyone see in the news and social media. Notting Hill (the film) always makes me think this and how the famous are behind social media and the news. I guess this is why i had those thoughts and am living in dreamland.
Anyway, all the best. Hope Roscoe is doing well, you gave Coco the best life she could ever have hoped for. Keep safe and keep that positive energy spreading throughout the world. Im routing for you and cannot wait for the season to begin.
Team LH will smash it this year and bring home a record equalling world championship!
Thanks for reading if you did.

Hi I was wondering if it would be possible for a photo of Lewis to put on a floral tribute I am having made for my brother who was one of your greatest fans. He had a severe heart condition and was given only months to live but unfortunately 4weeks later he passed away.
He was a fantastic brother who at 58years has passed too soon.
I want my tribute to show his passion for you Mr Hamilton as you and your racing team
I am one of your fans and believe that you are currently one of the best drivers.
Lewis as a dog dad I’d like to say sorry for your loss. We love are dog children. Good luck this season and have a great Juneteenth day .Peace! J.R.MAZURE .USA.
Hi, Mr Hamilton how can the poorer people in life get to see or meet you. Seems like once people are rich and famous the people who watched and supported them fall into categories of least contact and importance. I not surprised by this, just wondering how it happens with all famous NOW people. I’m sure I’m not alone in my years of following your career. The good and bad time without faltering, but only those and such as those get close. I will continue my adoration for you and your amazing ability, which I’m sure will surpass your predecessor and cement your place as the GREATEST ever F1 Driver before the sport is forced into demise.

Lewis I have a question for you. You have stated that all statues relating to the history in Great Britain that have even the slightest connection with slavery be torn down. Why then do you work for a company that during WW2 used hundreds of thousands of Jewish slaves to build war machines for Hitler. I personally have nothing against these company’s at these facts are History. Something that cannot be changed. So why is it ok to provoke race hatred in the UK by demanding statues be torn down in the name of BLM, yet earn huge wages from a company built on slavery?. That is very hypocritical. And no doubt you have lost a huge amount of respect from your British fans. After comments like that, many veterans who follow you will now turn our backs on you and Mercedes. You are a sports man and mentor to so many young kids of all races. Yes BLM but so do all other lives no matter there skin colour. To say BLM is racist, to say all lives matter is not.
