British-born Formula One driver, Lewis Hamilton, is one of the best
drivers of the sport ever. With Lewis, the sport has become more
popular, especially with young people in the UK.
Lewis began karting as a hobby at the age of eight. One thing was clear.
He was very talented, and he soon won races and championships.
Today, Lewis spends many hours at the gym every day and doesn’t have much
free time on his hands. Few people know that F1 drivers need to train hard and
be very fit. They need to have strong, muscular bodies and very little body fat.
After winning his first F1 World Drivers’ Championship in 2008, Hamilton has
continued competing in races all over the world and has won more than eighty so
far. Driving is his passion and he's at his happiest when he's behind the wheel.
