Lewis Hamilton has a flare for the dramatic

Published by dpereda at 2:01 pm under F1, Racing, Racing By Organization Edit This

Lewis Hamilton has a flare for the dramatic and it is intoxicating.  Hamilton won the F1 world championship by just one point.  If that wasn’t close enough, he only managed to get that one point because of a miraculous pass of Toyota’s Timo Glock in the last seconds of the race. In a coincidence, Hamilton lost last year’s world championship by just one point.

Lewis Hamilton is now the highest paid person in sports across the world.  He will bring in a total of 160 million dollars this year.  Tiger woods come in second with about 120 million. Hamilton states that he would race for free and the money is just a bonus on top of doing the hobby that he loves.  Hopefully his boss doesn’t find out.  Only time will tell if there is ever a contract fight for him.  Will he stay with his mentor team at McLaren.
