i got into F1 a few years ago (DTS season 1). i became Max fan and the whole underdog story(beating a 7 time world champ). but after the 2021 season and how both Max and Lewis handled Abi Dubai. i recognize how mature and great of a human Lewis actually is. i genuinely appreciate Lewis's humility and consideration. big fan of lewis!
no matter whose fan you are, appreciating lewis' sincerety, gratitude and the values he stands for is all LH stans like myself can ask for! I wish more people would be openminded like yourself
@@xxDxxism exactly, it really is only a vocal minority on social media that's so toxic (mainly Max and Lewis stans). Though I utterly despise people who harass people irl just for wearing merch that's different from your favorite team.
Lewis is a legend of the sport. Feel lucky to have lived through his era. Excited to see him go up against the new three headed lion of Max, Charles and George all in top cars/ teams in his final years.
@Cookie I think Lando could hold on a few years because I think when Lewis retires, which we all know might be in a few seasons, Lando and George would make a great team. Lando just needs the car. Mclaren has dropped the ball in recent years.
Well said… if anyone has the composure, determination, and skill to face these guys, it’s Lewis… he’s a living legend and a man of honor and good character… I just want the best for him..
Lewis and Mclaren, "the love is still there". A privilege to witness this man's greatness in my lifetime. Continues to inspire me everyday. Still we rise!
The love is still there despite him never going anywhere near the McLaren garage these days. I don't see why he'd still feel love for the team when none of the senior staff he worked with are there anymore.
@@jacobmassey3897 how do you know that he doesn't ever talk to them? he feels love for mclaren because that's where he started his career and won a title regardless of who is running the team, i don't see why this is hard to understand.
@@vlvtgoldmine I don't appreciate your rude tone. Sorry that I see things slightly differently to you but that dosent give you an excuse to suggest I'm stupid.
@@jacobmassey3897 I don't think Mia intended for the comment to come out as calling you stupid (sorry to speak for you Mia, feel free to correct me), but more like, it is understandable that Ham will always have a soft spot for Mclaren, regardless of his guys not being there anymore, but more because of the opportunities Mclaren afforded him. My comment though was based on what SLH has said in this interview, about paying attention to Mclaren performances, cheering for them and feeling the disappointment/sadness when Mclaren have particularly tough days. And he has made similar comments before, about what Mclaren means to him. I was just borrowing from an old presser with Ferrari Seb, Ham and Max, where Ham offers a drink to Seb and Seb says he'd rather take a red bull, and Max comments "the love is still there"👍.
@@jacobmassey3897 i don't think you're stupid at all! some people love to try and discredit everything lewis says/call him a liar which is why i might've sounded a bit defensive but i definitely was not trying to say that you're stupid :)
I know this season is not what he expected in terms of performance but I think he needed a year without a title fight. Lewis will definitely come back stronger next year
I'm looking forward to Lewis and George coming to blows over the number 1 driver role. Max and Charles are both clearly the top drivers in their teams so Mercedes having 2 drivers challenging for the title could lead to some wheel banging.
Lewis is credit to racing and deserves more recognition . I got into the sport in 2007 following him and he was the wow factor the sport was missing at the time
I was never Lewis' biggest fan but as he's nearing the end of his career, my respect for him is growing with each day. I'd have to say that Seb and Lewis (Fernando too) deserve all the respect from fans, even though we have preferences.
He's really not nearing the end. He's definitely on the other side of the curve but he's no where near leaving. He's gonna be around for like another 5 years probably. He's even said so himself
@@EVSkecthCode Well, yeah. But what I meant by "end of his career", is the number of years he will still be in the sport in comparison to the years he has been in the sport (2007-2022 is quite a number of years). But I get what you meant; well taken 🤝
Enjoyed this interview so much, wish it was longer. Lewis has grown so much over the years, and is generally just a pleasure to watch, on and off the track. Can't wait to see what he achieves next year, with hopefully, a more competitive car
Really love Lewis as a person, he’s seems like a nice person to talk to, funny and very positive orientated. He has such a strong mentality, lots to learn from him. Thank you
Great interview. It’s rare to get Lewis to open up and explain a few of his viewpoints. Nice to hear he’s also someone who struggles with receiving love. Hopefully all the hard work done this year results in a competitive car next year that can challenge for both titles 🤞🏾
I loved this interview. Such quiet skill to bring such an easy, warm, authentic vibe as an interviewer. And Sir Lewis, just what a class act. Gracious and charming and truly what a driver!
How the hell has Lewis been able to handle the last year with all the bull. We all have a lot to learn from him how to conduct yourself even though the pain. I would hope that a lot of these young black men see an interview like this and the conduct of Lewis through his career, how to handle yourself in public because it's not easy. Nice work Lewis. The interview was nicely done good job Steve.
I for one is one of them. Often when I go through tough times I often ask myself "How would Lewis handle this situation?". I use Abu Dhabi 21 as an example and then go from there.
I think the hardest year of Sir Lewis Hamilton's life that he was referring to was 2011. Personally, in his life, that year sucked. Troubles with father Anthony because he had to drop him as his manager to let himself free to further his career in F1, troubles with his girlfriend at the time, Nicole Scherzinger, which was on and off until 2015 when they stopped. It affected him so much mentally; even his performances on track in 2011 were reflected by his mood on that day/week. Former McLaren mechanic, Marc "Elvis" Priestley commented on this: back then in 2011, and continuing with the Mercedes mechanics in 2015, the mechanics joked "It was to better for lap time to focus efforts on keeping their relationship good, than anything we could put on the car." Hamilton was later able to mend and grow the relationship with his father and now has grown into a healthier man mentally. Proud of him. ❤
Very illuminating to hear Lewis admit that he struggles with receiving love and admiration from others. As someone who has difficulty even receiving the slightest compliment, it's interesting to see someone of his stature deal with the same phenomenon.
@@Bahamuttiamat At least he didn't call his mom and dad to defend him from Checo on social media. What's Jos Verstappen gonna do? Write another angry blog on the Max Verstappen website?
Lewis continually impresses with his integrity, sportsmanship, centeredness... He's really a unique and special driver and I'm glad i got to see this all unfold.
I'll be honest, I'm a Max fan but I love watching Lewis during interviews. He's incredibly humble and has such a great attitude to everything. I hope he has a better year in 2023.
Steve Jones is so genuine, that’s why Lewis is so relaxed, and opens up to him. They both like F1 for its basic purpose, fast racing, all the other crap that goes with it is just noise. Brilliant interview as usual from channel 4 👌
I hope I meet this man one day. I remember the day after he won the 2020 championship in Turkey. He posted on Instagram about mental health, how to stay positive, don't give up, keep fighting and live in the present. That day I found out my father was diagnosed with Alzheimer's and I was in a bad way. His post changed my life trajectory, I'm forever thankful to him for that.
Everytime I watch an interview of Sir Lewis, I think to myself : this is the best, another one comes out and I go oh this is the best, now I am wondering : how many 'best' do I have? Nevertheless this is beyond amazing, I smiled all through.
@@blackgirlsrock264 There's this guy he has a TH-cam channel calming that he can read people through their speaking and body language his channel is Max Beaumont. He called Lewis fake, George friendly, Max humble, and Charlos and Charles besties.
Standing ovation!💯 Well said! At the end of the day, Lewis is a legend not because of racing stats but how he stands up for more than just driving around on a track to get a trophy! 2022 he didn’t win ANY races but he is still larger than life both as a leader in the team, a racer and personality in the paddock! Think about it…didn’t win a single race but when celebrities visit the track, they all want to meet Lewis! Barely made a few podiums but still the biggest name in the sport! That speaks VOLUMES about him as a person!
What a kind and eloquent man. Such a clear view on things, so positive and appreciative and incredibly humble! That´s what defines champions. Thank You, Lewis and lets go big time next year!
Lewis agreeing to do the early testing just shows how much he wants the No.8. After all the winning, all the titles, all the poles, he still chases greatness. Icon 👑
boy just raced 3 diffirent gens in his whole season the only one can challenged seb in his prime the only one can challenged prime KIMI and alonso in his first season its so good that it takes 15 years straight just to make him lose
Lewis,you’re a truly a decent human being and an absolute legend,I’ve followed your progress from karting until now and I’m so proud to have witnessed your amazing rise in F1,thanks for the wonderful memories…..Peace.
For me, this Legend is the GOAT 🐐 Raced and beat the best in several generations, had countless 10/10 unstoppable drives, and drove a whole new fanbase to F1 that represented diversity and inclusion, to which he actively promoted. His decision to back and stick with Mercedes at least equals the legend of Sr Stirling Moss. With titles matching Schumacher it's safe to say he's chilling with the gods in motorsport. 🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆 This is just insane!
Wow!! What an interview this was, simply enjoyed every minute listening to Lewis. He’s truly the g.o.a.t on and off track, such an incredible person. wish him well always💜
I really became a fan of Lewis this year. Seeing the positivity he brought to the team even on the toughest of weekends. I'm hoping Mercedes are back towards the front in 2023.
Can we take a minute to appreciate how good Steve Jones is as an interviewer….. he is definitely up there with Brundle now in making drivers feel relaxed and gets them talking.
Lewis Hamilton has the best skills set in a formula 1 car and demonstrates his expertise also helping individuals within his team and surrounding out side of his workplace by raising awareness by including Children who are at Schools to learn and be inspired to get the best out of every detail of their daily lives and just like him to go faster.
Yes...even being a super casual fan of the sport, following it on the edges because of Schumacher and then Hamilton, I totally agree, that super nice but cocky kid who oozed talent on the track and charm in interviews has matured into such a supremely good human. His legend will be forever, he will be remembered when others are long forgotten.
Lewis...I know that he is a legend, but he is more than that. Every time he is a true inspiration, every year he is better and better. True champion, a real human beeing and example 💜💜💜
@@F1nonBritishbiasFans Really? If You have a problem with Lewis, It's not mandatory to watch this king of interview 😉 or reply to my comment. I didnt mention Max....Then go and support Max, leave comm in his page, not here
@@maxverstappenworldchampion8290 Yes he is. He is also 38 and Max 25. Last time i checked in sports we don't compare people just about to retire. to careers that are just getting started. The reality is Max is going tonown EVERY f1 record by the time he is done.
@@F1nonBritishbiasFans 😂😂😂 that’s your wish . The reality is different. When Seb won 4 in a row what did people say ? In 2017 and 2018 when Seb was leading what did people say ? I think you don’t understand how dominant and consistent you need to be win that much . If Max doesn’t lose the careless crashing even when he has the best car in the grid it’s gonna be very hard . Brazil was a classic example and Max said he in went to that corner knowing well Hamilton will not yield so he went in expecting to crash …. That’s why Schumacher and Hamilton have same championships but Schumacher lost a whole season in 97 for crashing someone to the wall . 94 he crashed Damon to the wall . Hamilton doesn’t crash easily that’s one thing Max should learn . Max is one of the most dangerous drivers in terms of how many crashes he has had
I genuinely feel grateful to have grown up supporting this legend through it all being an F1 fan since after Michael's days and learning about his story as I grew up after being a baseless Schumacher fan and never doubted his grind and skill through many bad times/"hate" or whatever you want to call it, I feel great to have witnessed the greatest of his time break every wall down and speak so well mostly about it all 😏🙌
That skydiving story is so real. I have gone up with people who talk a ton of stuff but when they get to the door their legs give out and they beg not to go 😂😂😂😂😂😂
You get the impression that he cannot manoeuvre the car how he wants because of how it's currently built. I hope God will grant him a car he can manage how he wants so he can get back to winning ways in 2023. As a Sport's Person, and a Human being, he has become a shinning star.
The first ever f1 race I watched was also his first ever f1 race, I remember watching him win his first championship and all 6 that came after. He's one hell of a driver and deserves a little more respect for the legend he is 🙌
An incredible human being. He’s Sir Lewis for a reason. Praying Mercedes can give him a championship wining car next year. He deserves to win his 8th WDC
Me 2!! Wich year you think he's talking about was the worst year of his career? Of course 2021 was a difficult one but I'm guessing the 2016 season teambattle with Rosberg
Guys, everyone, especially us competitive people, we have to protect ourselves against hate. Meaning, we can't dislike someone or talk smack simply because you think you are better. At the end of the day, you gotta earn that mess because history/time is not kind to ANYONE that is ok with winning regardless of how they got it including being gifted the win or cheating for it. That's why, whether Max or his fans like it or not, we will debate his first championship till the end of time. Let's get back to why we are here in the first place. Fangio, Moss, Senna, Hunt, Mansell, they didn't have time to think about that crap because most of their talent was absorbed by trying not to die! And that alone made it about who has the biggest balls and who is able to conquer all the elements to come out on top. Not this elementary bullshi* we are currently on about. Merry Christmas, God bless and see y'all next year 💪🏾
Even if Lewis never beats Michael's record in the future, just to have made it that far is still an achievement. Remember Lewis shared the track with all the greats, Alonso, Kimi, Seb, Schumi, Button. Can you imagine how many world champions he has raced with in his early days
Lewis is so calm in these most recent interviews. Before he was a little curt, when answering questions. He's over 35 now, he's like I don't have time for the BS. Yes, please ask me about Max for the 90th time today??? Cool. Imma get through this and then go sky dive. ✌🏽
I love both Max and Lewis, and I know it’s normal for rivals to don’t always like each other. But how I wish both of them would be on good terms and that we could have some good wheel to wheel racing between them. They are the two best drivers on the grid and I hope we just get some good fair racing between them. But as it looks now, with how Lewis and Max race differently against each other it’s a shame. They have good wheel to wheel with everyone else. I hope they find some middle ground between them.
If you’ve watched F1 for long then you know who is the crashing king and who doesn’t know how to race wheel and wheel , just check the races you’ll see
Max and Lewis seems to be one of the most tame rivalries compared to the historic rivalries in the past, Prost and Senna. Schumacher and Hakkinen. Lauda and Prost. Hill and Schumacher. Even Hamilton and Alonso was less trifling than what we have today. The fans on respective sides however is a completely different story. I may like one over the other but both are still the very best at what they do which is their passion of racing
Wow what an amazing man Lewis is, magnificent on and off the track, had goosebumps listening to that interview. Indeed the way he dealt with last year's rip off was inspirational and a great example to children, the guy was sporting and gracious and that will be remembered probably more than any of hos WDCs. Hope he gets more success in the furlture and of course nothing like that travesty of Abu Dhabi ever happens again. Good luck Lewis you're a legend, the goat and our king. 🏎️🏁😁👍

It has been a pleasure watching him grow as a driver and as a human being. A champion on and off the track. Keep shinning goat.
Yes...even being a super casual fan of the sport, following it on the edges because of Schumacher and then Hamilton, I totally agree, that super nice but cocky kid who oozed talent on the track and charm in interviews has matured into such a supremely good human. His legend will be forever, he will be remembered when others are long forgotten.
Well said!💯
What an amazing person! Always interested in listening! True True Legend ! Thank you!
What a humble man. Living legend imo.
Lewis...I know that he is a legend, but he is more than that. Every time he is a true inspiration, every year he is better and better. True champion, a real human beeing and example 💜💜💜
Yeah he was really good this year. Lewis 0 wins Max 15. I don't want to see when he does bad then.......LMFAO
@@F1nonBritishbiasFans Really? If You have a problem with Lewis, It's not mandatory to watch this king of interview 😉 or reply to my comment. I didnt mention Max....Then go and support Max, leave comm in his page, not here
@@F1nonBritishbiasFans Lewis is the most successful F1 driver dead or alive
@@maxverstappenworldchampion8290 Yes he is. He is also 38 and Max 25. Last time i checked in sports we don't compare people just about to retire. to careers that are just getting started. The reality is Max is going tonown EVERY f1 record by the time he is done.
@@F1nonBritishbiasFans 😂😂😂 that’s your wish . The reality is different. When Seb won 4 in a row what did people say ? In 2017 and 2018 when Seb was leading what did people say ? I think you don’t understand how dominant and consistent you need to be win that much . If Max doesn’t lose the careless crashing even when he has the best car in the grid it’s gonna be very hard . Brazil was a classic example and Max said he in went to that corner knowing well Hamilton will not yield so he went in expecting to crash …. That’s why Schumacher and Hamilton have same championships but Schumacher lost a whole season in 97 for crashing someone to the wall . 94 he crashed Damon to the wall . Hamilton doesn’t crash easily that’s one thing Max should learn . Max is one of the most dangerous drivers in terms of how many crashes he has had
Lewis Hamilton is a fighter a strong champion, watch him 2023 he will bounce back. Never give up Still he rise LH44 💜🥇🏆👊🏾
Respect to Lewis for his resilience and skills in F1. He has a good attitude and work ethic and is such an inspiration.
Thanks for sharing, Lewis Larbalestier-Hamilton the Best of his generation as a racer and incredibly humble.
I genuinely feel grateful to have grown up supporting this legend through it all being an F1 fan since after Michael's days and learning about his story as I grew up after being a baseless Schumacher fan and never doubted his grind and skill through many bad times/"hate" or whatever you want to call it, I feel great to have witnessed the greatest of his time break every wall down and speak so well mostly about it all 😏🙌
I really enjoyed this interview - I've always been a Lewis fan. Let's hope their car gets them back to the sharp end next year!
I love Lewis man
He's more relaxed this year which is fantastic to see!
#bless
nothing to prove
@@protopigeon he's already had it all of course he has nothing left to prove
The man was just chilling the whole year. Imagine giving him a worthy car and he gets serious next year...
That skydiving story is so real. I have gone up with people who talk a ton of stuff but when they get to the door their legs give out and they beg not to go 😂😂😂😂😂😂
love this... feels like last couple of years have made him show more of his humanity... ah true role model of and on the track
You get the impression that he cannot manoeuvre the car how he wants because of how it's currently built. I hope God will grant him a car he can manage how he wants so he can get back to winning ways in 2023. As a Sport's Person, and a Human being, he has become a shinning star.
Lewis, what an exceptional gentleman.
The first ever f1 race I watched was also his first ever f1 race, I remember watching him win his first championship and all 6 that came after. He's one hell of a driver and deserves a little more respect for the legend he is 🙌
This is such a good interview.
Surprised it hasn't more views. Lewis is very inspirational
Lewis really loves bullying people into skydiving 🤣
Great interview tbh, tend to be the same old F1 interviews but this is was different.
An incredible human being. He’s Sir Lewis for a reason. Praying Mercedes can give him a championship wining car next year. He deserves to win his 8th WDC
Lewis is just an amazing human being!! So easy to love him
Fantastic driver. Person. Awesome. GOAT.
The man has lightning in his eyes. Quick af.
I will be waiting for that book AND documentary! Lewis LEGEND!
Me 2!! Wich year you think he's talking about was the worst year of his career? Of course 2021 was a difficult one but I'm guessing the 2016 season teambattle with Rosberg
That year
The GOAT! he's had many up and downs, but he still kicks ass after all of it. The face Fernando had when Lewis first arrived was priceless.
beautiful message about gratitude and looking to positivity! you have a beautiful soul
An exemplary human. We'll see you in 2023, Sir LH.
You guys always deliver quality interviews. Great job
Great driver, and even greater human being
This was his grounding year. it's only gonna spur him on. 8 is coming.
Great wrap up 👌
The best 2 ever do it.
Guys, everyone, especially us competitive people, we have to protect ourselves against hate. Meaning, we can't dislike someone or talk smack simply because you think you are better. At the end of the day, you gotta earn that mess because history/time is not kind to ANYONE that is ok with winning regardless of how they got it including being gifted the win or cheating for it. That's why, whether Max or his fans like it or not, we will debate his first championship till the end of time.
Let's get back to why we are here in the first place. Fangio, Moss, Senna, Hunt, Mansell, they didn't have time to think about that crap because most of their talent was absorbed by trying not to die! And that alone made it about who has the biggest balls and who is able to conquer all the elements to come out on top. Not this elementary bullshi* we are currently on about.
Merry Christmas, God bless and see y'all next year 💪🏾
I enjoy watching Lewis interviews. So refreshing and interesting. Smiled throughout. ❤
Indeed, it’s a great act.
“Somebody’s mother posting something” - We all know who he’s talking about here!
Wait who? Lol
@@Louisianagirl-l7c max’s mum posted saying that checo cheated on his wife
@@saraahgupta5925 that team dynamic next season is going to be horrific
@@randomdaveUK definitely a chance that Daniel might take the seat for 2024.
@@saraahgupta5925 WTF!!!!! Madness 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Even if Lewis never beats Michael's record in the future, just to have made it that far is still an achievement. Remember Lewis shared the track with all the greats, Alonso, Kimi, Seb, Schumi, Button. Can you imagine how many world champions he has raced with in his early days
What record does Michael have that is better than Hamilton ? 7 titles each . Hamilton more wins ,more podiums ,more poles ….
@@maxverstappenworldchampion8290 omg Hi Max

@@maxverstappenworldchampion8290I wish toxic Max fans would go away!🤡
As a Max fan big respect for Lewis! Let’s hope for a nice fight between goat Lewis and goat Max upcoming season!❤🎉
Respect
@@tivelfarrell1855 ♥️
Respect 🎉
It’s Max fans like u we’re thankful for having 🙏🏽🤝 gotta have the respect at least
Respect. Max's channel 4 interview was also what made me respect him more
Lewis is so calm in these most recent interviews. Before he was a little curt, when answering questions. He's over 35 now, he's like I don't have time for the BS. Yes, please ask me about Max for the 90th time today??? Cool. Imma get through this and then go sky dive. ✌🏽
Love this guy ❤ gratitude attitude
Great interview, Steve, you hit the nails on the head whilst keeping the respect. Looking forward to '23!
Why does everyone have to preface comments with “I’m not a Lewis fan”, is it impossible to pay respect to the man without saying that first?
Lol
Bc if ur a fan and give him love people call u a dts fan boy
Great interview, and loved Lewis’s words on Seb..
He’s such a lovely lovely lad how can anyone dislike ihim
Ask the toxic, racist Orange Army that question.🙄
I love both Max and Lewis, and I know it’s normal for rivals to don’t always like each other. But how I wish both of them would be on good terms and that we could have some good wheel to wheel racing between them. They are the two best drivers on the grid and I hope we just get some good fair racing between them. But as it looks now, with how Lewis and Max race differently against each other it’s a shame. They have good wheel to wheel with everyone else. I hope they find some middle ground between them.
If you’ve watched F1 for long then you know who is the crashing king and who doesn’t know how to race wheel and wheel , just check the races you’ll see
Max and Lewis seems to be one of the most tame rivalries compared to the historic rivalries in the past, Prost and Senna. Schumacher and Hakkinen. Lauda and Prost. Hill and Schumacher. Even Hamilton and Alonso was less trifling than what we have today. The fans on respective sides however is a completely different story. I may like one over the other but both are still the very best at what they do which is their passion of racing
@@maxverstappenworldchampion8290 yes, max verstappen, the guy who was crashed more in 7 years than Hamilton in 15 years
Wow what an amazing man Lewis is, magnificent on and off the track, had goosebumps listening to that interview. Indeed the way he dealt with last year's rip off was inspirational and a great example to children, the guy was sporting and gracious and that will be remembered probably more than any of hos WDCs. Hope he gets more success in the furlture and of course nothing like that travesty of Abu Dhabi ever happens again.
Good luck Lewis you're a legend, the goat and our king.
🏎️🏁😁👍
Had a much stronger season than the points reflected. Made a few more mistakes than usual but pace wise was right up there since Canada
When they get that car right that he is helping to develop, he should be back to winning
Worst year was 2011 I’d imagine
Yep that's my guess as well. Personally, in his life, that year sucked. Troubles with father Anthony because he had to drop him as his manager to let himself free to further his career in F1, troubles with his girlfriend at the time, Nicole Scherzinger, which was on and off until 2015 when they stopped. It affected him so much mentally; even his performances on track in 2011 were reflected by his mood on that day/week.
Former McLaren mechanic, Marc "Elvis" Priestley commented on this: back then in 2011, and continuing with the Mercedes mechanics in 2015, the mechanics joked "It was to better for lap time to focus efforts on keeping their relationship good, than anything we could put on the car."
Hamilton was later able to mend and grow the relationship with his father and now has grown into a healthier man mentally. Proud of him. ❤
Supporting Lewis for his 8th title next year .
Great guy!
The greatest ever!! The other drivers on the grid are not even close to reach his level
Cmon Verstappen is now better than he ever was
@@Querientje what are you smoking?
Fantastic interview with a truly amazing individual.
Sir Lewis Hamilton just so you know I can come back and say I witness your legendary achievements
My goat
