4, 6, 7 world championships. A lot of things factored into Hamilton’s success, but he could definitely drive! Since Hamilton’s second championship, I don’t think anyone has done better at making the most of a bad situation! I believe that is why he won championships and not just races. It was the races he didn’t win but maximized his points from bad things/luck during races.
Don't forget he was within a few points of winning 4 more. 2 of those were due to mechanical failures when he was in a position to get enough points to come out on top. Ifs and buts and all that, but had things gone just a little differently Lewis' WC trophy case could have 11 in it instead of only 7.
Wow! Rain in Miami, I’m shocked! Put a track on a giant parking lot with little drainage? What could possibly go wrong? Rain is the only thing keeping this race interesting. FIA needs to remember these are all grown men and let them race in the rain like they used to. Suck it up buttercup!
Formula One’s Long—and Successful—Race to Crack America The sport’s efforts in the U.S. spent decades lost in translation. But with American owners and three stateside Grands Prix, F1 finally has the foothold it has been searching for. Not so long ago—before Formula One was organizing races down the Las Vegas Strip, or in the Miami sunshine, or for half a million fans in Austin, Texas—the U.S. was the one place on earth that felt agonizingly out of reach for the world’s most prestigious racing series. It wasn’t for lack of trying. Ever since F1 began in 1950, organizers had brought Grand Prix races to the U.S., desperately hoping to seduce the American market that understood and embraced its traditionally oval-track motor sports, Nascar and IndyCar. But everywhere they went, the F1 traveling circus ran into a mix of misfortune, incompetence and, worst of all, indifference. This Obsessive Italian Is the Reason Formula One Is Popping Up Everywhere In Miami Sunday, Stefano Domenicali drives home his push to bring his brand of racing to America LONDON—On the evening before any Grand Prix, wherever in the world the race may be, Formula One Chief Executive Stefano Domenicali has a personal ritual. During a rare quiet moment, he steps outside and takes a roughly 3-mile stroll around the circuit. He isn’t just stretching his legs. During his Saturday night lap, the 59-year-old Domenicali is running his own personal inspection. How do the track markings look? Are the ad boards in the right spots? And, before the race goes live to more than 70 million people around the world, is there anything he’s missed? https://www.wsj.com/sports/f1-cars-history-27ab837a?mod=author_content_page_1_pos_2 How about the sport of Formula One
