Lewis Brings His Girlfriend Home

By: Tim Neale

Lewis Hamilton visits his home town unnoticed.

Lewis Hamilton took his girlfriend, Pussycat Dolls singer Nicole Scherzinger, to see Quantum of Solace in his hometown of Stevenage last week.

Lewis Hamilton is F1 World Champion

By: Tim Neale

Congratulations to Lewis Hamilton…

On becoming the youngest Formula 1 world champion. Lewis came fifth in the Brazilian Grand Prix to clinch the title. The race was won by Felipe Massa, but this was not enough to win him the championship title if Lewis came in fifth.

On the second to last corner of the final lap Lewis overtook Timo Glock to win the championship by 1 point. I was literally on the edge of my seat for the end of the race. An excellent end to an excellent season.

Lewis went to school in Stevenage, and is a big local hero. Listening to him talk on the TV yesterday you never would tell he spent time here. He sounded like he had a French accent.

I am looking forward to next season. I am thinking I may go to the British Grand Prix to watch it live.
