Lewis Hamilton is the most decorated driver in Formula 1 history. The British racing star holds the all-time records for race wins and pole positions, claimed seven World Championship titles, and spent the majority of his career dominating with Mercedes. In 2025 he made the seismic move to Ferrari, the sport’s most iconic team, trading the Silver Arrows for the Prancing Horse in what was instantly dubbed the transfer of the decade.

His 2026 campaign is his second season at Ferrari, and the results are improving. On 24 May 2026 he finished second at the Canadian Grand Prix in Montreal, his best result in red so far. He has not won a race since 2024, but the podium in Canada signals his integration with the team is deepening. For a driver of Hamilton’s calibre, the only result that will truly satisfy is a win, and Ferrari fans are watching closely.

Off the track, Hamilton’s personal life is drawing as much search traffic as his lap times. He is widely reported to be in a relationship with Kim Kardashian, which became public in 2026. Hamilton has confirmed nothing in detail, but the reports are widespread and consistent across major outlets. Any further claims, engagement, wedding plans, remain unconfirmed tabloid speculation and should be treated as such.

Hamilton is also one of sport’s most visible activists. He has used his platform to champion diversity and inclusion in motorsport through his Mission 44 charity, and he is an outspoken advocate for sustainability and plant-based living. He was knighted in 2021, becoming Sir Lewis Hamilton, a title that underlines just how far he has transcended the sport itself.
