At the pinnacle of motorsports, a humble young man from Stevenage has risen to become the greatest Formula One driver of all time. Lewis Hamilton’s journey from remote-controlled car hobbyist to seven-time world champion is evidently the stuff of modern legend. Michael Sawyer follows Hamilton’s path and we witness Hamilton’s single-minded determination to reach the top along the way, even as he challenged racial barriers and opposition at every turn.

Beyond his unparalleled on-track exploits – equalling the records held by the legendary Michael Schumacher – Hamilton has used his platform to advocate for social justice, environmental sustainability and diversity, inspiring the next generation by not only encouraging them to pursue their own dreams but by also extending his legacy and impact beyond the track.

As Hamilton nears the twilight of his racing career, this electrifying book by acclaimed professor of African American Literature and Culture, and lifelong Formula One fan, Michael Sawyer, examines his lasting legacy.

Sir Lewis culminates with Hamilton’s potential final act – chasing a record-setting eighth world title at the wheel of the iconic Ferrari team – and shows how he continues to set new benchmarks for greatness.
