Dejected Lewis Hamilton Finds Comfort in Team LH44 as Fans Chant Encouraging 3-Worded Reminder

Lewis Hamilton is one of the most famous Formula 1 drivers and the world knows him as a racing talent. He is fearless, full of extraordinary energy, redoubtable on track, and wise off track. All these characteristics have made him a seven-time world champion and one of the most renowned drivers in F1 history. However, he has also faced several obstacles in his way to achieving this greatness.

There were rumors flying around that the Brit will not return to the sport after a devastating end to the 2021 season. Nevertheless, he bounced back with the hope of achieving an unparalleled 8th championship. The W13, however, has not performed up to expectations. Due to this Hamilton’s hopes of an 8th title are slipping away.

The 37-year-old is going through a rough patch as well. A Q1 elimination in Jeddah followed by a Q2 exit in Imola has raised criticism. But Hamilton can rely on one thing – his fans. After a tough start to the race week, his fans have sent him a message of support and hope.

Lewis Hamilton receives much-needed support from his fans

The phrase ‘still I rise’ is a term made popular by the American poet and writer Maya Angelou. Over time, this phrase has gained fame in the sports world and it remains to be one of Lewis Hamilton’s favorite words to date. During this difficult period, his fans all over the world have recorded a video of support by using the phrases, ‘still we rise’ and ‘we are with you.’

It is certainly inspiring, to say the least, as the seven-time world champion looks to find his feet back. This message will provide a much-needed confidence boost to Hamilton after a disappointing start. And as always, he thanked the fans for the video on his Instagram story. It read, “You are what keeps me going. Thank you all.”
