Lewis Hamilton: My Story

Product Information

He looks back in detail at the 2007 World Championship: his four race wins, the frightening crash in Germany, his rivalry with team-mate Fernando Alonso, his special relationship with Ron Dennis, and what it's like living under the spotlight of the paparazzi -- right up to the last race of the season in Brazil. Vê-se um Lewis ainda muito jovem (22 anos), já tendo passado por incríveis altos e baixos na vida/carreira e ainda não tinha se sagrado campeão da F1. To think I came straight from GP2 to be ranked number two in the world is a positive thing and I know we will be strong next year.

So, too, does the day I was confirmed as Fernando’s team-mate, as a race driver in the team, and all the other testing.

It's worth it to read the passage about Nico Rosberg and other F1 racers that he continued racing against a decade latter but apart from that it's not that interesting. In his first season in F1, Lewis Hamilton thrilled the world of motor racing by finishing on the podium in his first nine consecutive races - the first driver to do so in the sport's 57-year history - and drove to victories in Canada, America, Hungary and Japan. Lewis has achieved so much since then but it was interesting to see what was in his mind over a decade ago - long before he became the sports second ever most successful driver.

I know that he cannot do things as well as me but he has a real good go at it and makes me work even harder to make sure I beat him. I had been very young during the 2007 season and I frankly didn't remember much and it was coming from a very young Lewis who was in his rookie season so it wasn't that interesting. He has unbeatable records and such great race moments that would still give you goosebumps if you look back at them.In the end, I lost by just one point, but I proved I had the potential to be involved in more and more championship fights in the future. He rose rapidly through the Junior and Formula ranks, dominating every series with his raw speed and canny race craft. More crucially, nor did it give any sort of details to the infamous Fernando Alonso relationship \ breakdown at McLaren which led to spygate and the removal of McLaren from the constructors championship, this was a major disappointment. After the Turkish Grand Prix, for example, and before I had to travel to Italy, I went home to my parents’ house in Hertfordshire. The most disappointing thing about this book though is the fact that his junior single seater career is skipped over in just one chapter.
