Lewis Hamilton Summary

Lewis Hamilton: World Champion by Andrew van de Burgt

In only his second season of Formula 1, following a breathtaking debut year in 2007, Lewis Hamilton has achieved his childhood ambition to become the youngest-ever F1 World Champion at the age of 23. The Englishman's bravado behind the wheel, coupled with his supreme confidence, self-control and natural talent have already assured his place in motor racing history. Containing a new 80-page account of the often-controversial 2008 World Championship season, this new edition is the complete illustrated story of Hamilton's rise from schoolboy karter to modern-day sporting icon.
