Lewis Hamilton recently celebrated his 37th birthday on January 07, 2022, and quite unsurprisingly, tributes poured in from all over the world including the likes of a world-famous football player and an American model.
The seven-time Formula One world champion has been missing from the face of the media for almost a month now; The reason being an allegedly ‘manipulated’ end to the 2021 season which saw his rival, Max Verstappen, steal the title right at the cusp of the chequered flag in Abu Dhabi.
Hamilton, was until then, on course to secure his record-breaking eighth F1 title only for the stewards to wreck his hopes with one poor decision. Well, despite Hamilton’s reluctance to show his face out to the public since then, a lot of celebrities made their way to Instagram to shower their wishes for the ‘birthday boy’ on Friday.
