Lewis Hamilton captured his seventh F1 title on Sunday, after he won the Austrian Grand Prix in a classic display of racing.
The Mercedes driver is on an unprecedented run of dominance in the sport, and while you might think that winning these is becoming old hat to Hamilton, it still clearly means a lot.
On his cool down lap, Hamilton let the emotion pour out of him. You could hear him getting choked up, and then he gave a speech to the racing world, who was hanging on his every word.
“That’s for all the kids out there,” he said, “who dream the impossible.”
After the race, Hamilton also posted a note to social media, in which he talked about his real goal with the win, and his career writ large: a “desire to help push our sport, and our world to become more diverse and inclusive.”
The post came accompanied with a picture of his hand raised in a fist, while wearing a mask.
