Formula One racing driver Lewis Hamilton has been racing since he was only 13. According to a Sports Illustrated article written by Alexander Wolff, Hamilton approached McLaren team principal Ron Dennis at the age of 10 and told him, “I want to race for you one day … I want to race for McLaren.” Three years later, they signed him to their Young Driver Support Programme. He currently races for McLaren-Mercedes Benz. In 2008, he signed a five-year multi-million dollar deal to stay with them until the end of the 2012 season. Later that year, he went on to become the Formula One World Champion.

Hamilton, who is 26 years old, was born in Hertfordshire, England. The son of parents who emigrated from Grenada to the UK in the 1950s, Hamilton’s passion for racing came after his father bought him a radio-controlled car that he raced. At the age of 6, he got his first go-kart. His father worked three jobs at some points in order to remain supportive of his son’s racing.

Hamilton has broken many records in Formula One. He became the youngest driver to lead the World Championship at the 2007 Spanish Grand Prix, he held the most wins and points in his debut season, and he was also the first driver of black heritage to compete in Formula One.

Hamilton began dating pop star Nicole Sherzinger in 2007, the two split briefly in 2010, but are back together. Sherzinger denied rumors the pair were engaged. Which means…there’s still hope for you ladies who think he’s hot! Plus, Lewis can rock a Hugo Boss suit like it’s no one’s business. So what do you think?
