Driving success

Sir Lewis Hamilton MBE is a seven-time Formula One world champion racing for Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS F1 Team. He is considered the most successful driver in the sport’s history, having broken the record for race wins with 103 victories to his name. Hamilton continues to defy barriers within and outside of Formula 1 as the first and only Black, working-class driver. He launched his research project The Hamilton Commission in 2020, to identify barriers and opportunities for diversity, and a year later, launched his foundation, Mission 44, to build a fairer, more inclusive future in which every young person can thrive. 

In addition to his significant charitable commitments, Hamilton is constantly challenging himself to grow and realise his potential in new ways. His natural creativity has drawn him to the worlds of film, music, business, and fashion. In every venture, Hamilton has proven himself to be an engaged leader and dedicated partner to various organisations, committed to advocating for Black ownership and representation across industries.
