Well, if you are a fan of the Formula 1 you must have to know who is Lewis Hamilton. Born in 1985 in Great Britain. Nowadays (2020), Lewis is now a 7th time World Champion, having the same tittles as another legend in history of racing like Michael Schumacher. But in this post we are not going to talk about how talented he is or about how many races has he won (almost 100 if you want to know).
Today we are going to talk about someone that maybe you don't expect: his father. Wait, what? Yes, I'm going to talk about Anthony Hamilton. Maybe you don't know, but to be inside of the world of motorracing you need so much money, appart from talent. And money was something that the Hamilton family didn´t have. So, how did Lewis participate in the world of racing then?
Despite of the bad situation of the family, his father Anthony, thinking about his son Lewis and his dream of becoming a great driver someday, decided to get more than one work at a time. Sometimes he even worked 16 hours a day just for his son. His sacrifice gave Lewis the opportunity to compete and to prove how talented he was. So after the years sponsors put dinero in Lewis so his father didn't need to work that hard anymore.
Finally in 2008, he made his debut in the Formula 1 and, as I always say, the rest is history. He's considered one of the best drivers to ever race in a F1 car, and he still has a lot of years to increase his amazing stats with AMG Petronas Mercedes, his actual team.
Lewis showed us that we have to fight for our dreams, but we can't make this road alone. And that's why Anthony has been that importan for him, because he always believed in his son and fought for his dreams. And... What about you? Do you have someone special that help you with your dreams? Do you think you can follow your dreams alone' How was your insipiration? Tell me in the comment section!
