Just days after losing a major F1 World Cup fight to Max Verstappen, seven-times Champion Lewis Hamilton was honored at a ceremony at Windsor Castle.

Lewis Hamilton  was honored by Prince Charles. His name was even praised by British Prime Minister Boris Johnson.

This makes Hamilton the only F1 driver to be honored with this right behind Sir Stirling Moss, Sir Jack Brabham, and Sir Jackie Stewart. However, alongside Sir Jackie Stewart he is the only other living F1 driver to be honored and the only one ever trained while working on the grid.

in 2021,Lewis Hamilton came close to winning his 8th world record, but due to a controversial end to the F1 title final, the Britons were defeated by Verstappen in the final leg of the race. Hamilton, who turns 37 in January, is also the only black F1 driver in F1 history. He has a contract until the end of the 2023 season with the Mercedes F1 team, when he turns 38, approaching 39.
