Lewis Hamilton has been credited with increasing Formula One’s worldwide popularity by appealing to a bigger audience beyond the sport, thanks in part to his high-profile lifestyle, environmental and social advocacy, and musical and fashion achievements.
He has also become a vocal supporter of campaigning to condemn prejudice and promote more diversity in racing. Hamilton was named one of the 100 most important persons in the world by Time magazine in 2020, and he was knighted in the 2021 New Year Honours.
How long did Lewis Hamilton date Rihanna?
Rihanna and Lewis had been friends for years, but their friendship was said to have reached new heights in 2015.
The couple is assumed to have had a summer romance because they spent so much time together in New York.
However, neither Lewis nor Rihanna confirmed their relationship.
His most recent appearance was in the United States Grand Prix in 2021.
Before the 2015 Monaco Grand Prix weekend, Hamilton signed a contract extension with Mercedes until the conclusion of the 2018 season, reputedly for more than £100 million over three years, making him one of Formula One’s highest-paid drivers.
In the week preceding the 2018 German Grand Prix, Hamilton signed a two-year deal with Mercedes worth up to £40 million per year, making him the highest-paid driver in Formula One history.
