Lewis Hamilton BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Lewis Hamilton has dominated headlines this week on and off the track, starting with a candid revelation that he has sold his entire luxury car collection, previously worth around $16 million. Speaking to media in Baku, Hamilton said hes now more focused on collecting contemporary art with a particular passion for young Black artists and African art, an interest he finds far more rewarding and intellectually engaging than amassing exotic cars. He told GrandPrix.com that if he ever bought another car it would be a Ferrari F40 but these days considers cars more as art than vehicles a shift that marks a significant personal evolution for the seven-time champion.On the racing front, Hamilton was quick in Friday practice at the Azerbaijan Grand Prix but noted to RacingNews365 that the current F1 budget cap means hes basically stuck with the same Ferrari for the rest of the season since most teams have ceased major development to focus on the huge 2026 regulation changes. Hamilton was frank about how this makes the campaign less exciting as he sees out the year with what he describes as a static package, but he did express optimism that next year will bring a flurry of innovation and upgrades.Qualifying saw disappointment as Hamilton was eliminated in Q2, a result he called a huge shock, according to Formula1.com. In Sunday’s race, he found himself mired in the midfield and embroiled in a minor intra-team drama: an attempt to hand eighth place back to Charles Leclerc on the final lap failed after apparent confusion over radio instructions and finish line location. TheRace.com reports Hamilton was apologetic, vowing such mistakes won't happen again, though Leclerc himself shrugged off the error as irrelevant since they were well outside podium contention.Off the grid, Hamilton’s business acumen continues to make waves. Entrepreneur magazine spotlighted the rapid growth of Almave, his nonalcoholic agave spirit brand which has racked up impressive social engagement and sales. Although Hamilton’s earlier vegan restaurant venture Neat Burger has been liquidated, his involvement as a Denver Broncos part-owner and a Lululemon ambassador cements his post-racing influence. Hamilton hinted to ScuderiaFans.com that he may leave the F1 paddock entirely once his driving career ends, focusing on broader ownership and creative projects.Amid a fiercely competitive but, by Hamiltons admission, less thrilling season, these fresh moves and candid admissions feel like a new chapter from a man steadily shifting from sheer speed to legacy building—and the world keeps watching, on the track and beyond.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI
