Lewis Hamilton is a seven-time Formula One World Champion, who has won more races than every other driver in history. Although he loves racing and winning, he also does a lot of work for charitable causes and spreads awareness on the various issues that prevail in society.

He is an inspiration to millions of people around the world, especially to young athletes. During the 2021 Qatar Grand Prix, Hamilton used a special rainbow-colored helmet. The formula one driver’s helmet features a prominent pride flag on the top and “We Stand Together” message instead of his usual ‘Still I Rise’ slogan.

“Me just wearing this helmet isn’t gonna change the world. But I hope that whether its kids here are more aware of it, kids back home are more aware of the scenarios in these places. Maybe kids back home in England will be studying it more at school and learning more about inclusivity, “ said Hamilton on wearing the rainbow-colored helmet.

One of those inspired is young Dakota Tucker, a 9-year-old cyclist dreaming of becoming a professional cyclist in the future. She wore Hamilton’s Qatar GP replica helmet during her European Cycling final.

To add to his misery, Max Verstappen lapped him during the Imola GP. Subsequently, Helmut Marko suggested, “Maybe he should have stopped last year”. However, it is believed that Hamilton has hit back with a message on social media saying, “Working on my masterpiece, I’ll be the one to decide when it’s finished.”

Hamilton’s fans will certainly be pleased to hear the message. However, many believe that he is out of the championship race already. The good news, however, is there is still plenty of time for Mercedes to resolve their issues. Can Hamilton and Mercedes bounce back after a dismal start? We will have to wait and watch.
