F1 qualifying: All about seven times champion Lewis Hamilton

Lewis Hamilton is a household name for excellence in motorsport and an incredible figure in the history of Formula 1. He is a record-breaking legend with seven World Championships, tying him with Michael Schumacher for the most titles in history. From his first season at McLaren in 2007 through his dominance of Mercedes, Hamilton has rewritten the book on how to be a racing legend. Today, in 2025, he starts a new journey with Ferrari, which is again a massive turn in his career.
The season opener at the Australian Grand Prix drew worldwide attention, as Hamilton debuted in Ferrari’s iconic red livery. While the qualifying session saw him secure eighth place on the grid, fans were reminded of his relentless determination and adaptability. Always the fighter, Hamilton has shown that every lap and every race is an opportunity to push boundaries, which has kept millions heart beats in the race and attracted by his talent.

Lewis Hamilton’s success on the track is truly evident by his impressive fortune that comes with it. As of 2025, his net worth is estimated at $300 million according to Celebrity Net Worth, placing him among the wealthiest sportsmen in the world.
This includes his lucrative contracts, endorsement deals with top global brands, silky Formula 1 pay performance bonuses, and smart investments. In addition, his philanthropic work, including supporting diversity and education through the Hamilton Commission. He has partnered with the world’s top brands like Tommy Hilfiger, Puma and Monster Energy which have made his earnings increase substantially.


The racing star’s dating history includes high-profile relationships, such as his long-term partnership with pop icon Nicole Scherzinger, which ended in 2015. Since then, he has largely kept his love life under wraps, and always kept his fans guessing about the air around his love life. With passing years Hamilton’s name has been linked to several women who were spotted with him and made big headlines for dating rumours with the racing star.
This included Barbara Palvin in 2016, followed by Winnie Harlow in 2017 then Sofia Richie and Nicky Minaj in 2018. But the question remained intact, were they dating? Well, no one really knows and they keep guessing. Lately, his name was linked with pop star Shakira in 2023 but she shook down the rumours by giving an official statement. Then in early 2025, he was spotted having lunch with actress Sofia Vergara in New York. But once again people are still guessing!


Hamilton’s impact extends far beyond his achievements on the racetrack. As a vocal advocate for diversity, sustainability, and mental health awareness, he uses his platform to inspire change and enhance racial inclusivity. His Ferrari debut signals a new chapter not just in his career but in the sport itself.
