Lewis Hamilton, 2007 Japan Grand Prix winner
Lewis Hamilton is making waves this year as rookie driver to win. He is the first black driver racing in Formula One and the first rookie to win and reach the podium many times as it has in a single season. His fledgling career has resulted in the sale of tickets for Formula One racing to soar in Britain.

Hamilton had a modest childhood, and that shines through his personality. His interest started racing karts at the age of 8. He met his current boss, Ron Dennis (McLaren team owner Formula 1), at 10 years and told him how I was going to be a part of your team one day. Several years later signed Dennis Hamilton on the agenda of a young driver, and he has been at the top of the charts since. Not only is quick but is a driver with fantastic courage and skill.

Hamilton expected to be offered a substantial salary increase this year for his unprecedented success on the track. He has to come in fifth place or better in the next race to secure his place as champion, and the odds are in your favoor.
