Scientologist:
They race cars and stick to interviews about racing, nothing more. Few have interests away from sport, and this is where Hamilton differs.
“There’s a lot more to me than just driving. Driving, while it’s what I do best, is not a huge part of me in the sense that I have a lot more to offer.”
Merch:
Formula One isn’t exactly progressive; it’s almost exclusively white, male and carries with it the lingering whiff of testosterone.
Formula One drivers are put in a box, and if they try to emerge from that box they are open to criticism from the middle aged men who employ and write about them.
Is married:
Yes, he is married.
The 37-year-old, believed to be worth over £230m, has dated supermodels and pop stars – but without properly settling down.
Today, he’s even more desirable and is looking for more success with Mercedes after seven world title wins.
Here’s a rundown of the beauties Lewis has had on his arm.
Dating:
When Lewis was a teenage driver, he dated Celebrity Big Brother housemate Lloyd in 2002.
They met at celebrity haunt 10 Rooms, and had a steamy six month romance that fizzled out because of the long-distance between the pair.
Family:
The owner of the plantation at that time was Alexander Hamilton, Robert’s nephew, who would have gotten compensation from the British Government.
It is a big jump from 1834 to 1930, the year that Lewis’s first known ancestor – his grandfather Davidson Hamilton – was born in Grenada.
