Lewis Hamilton is a seven-time world champion in Formula One. His talent and skill behind the wheel were apparent from the first time he entered the sport in Formula One in 2007. The boy from Stevenage had grown into becoming the most successful driver in F1 history.

Hamilton has almost every single record to his name in the sport. He has the most number of wins, pole positions, and podiums in the sport’s history. He is the only driver to win a race in every season he has raced in. This amount of consistency only comes if you are passionate and physically fit.

Hamilton is one of the most ripped drivers in the field. Although he is not among the taller drivers, he applies himself pretty well behind the wheel.
