Lewis Hamilton has spoken of his "lonely journey" in F1 after again calling for more diversity in the sport.
Hamilton debuted with McLaren in 2007, securing a third-placed podium finish in his debut Grand Prix in Australia. He came desperately close to an historic world title win that season, but missed out in the final race to Kimi Raikkonen.
He has since gone on to become one of the greatest drivers in the history of the sport, equalling Michael Schumacher's record of seven world titles. Only a dubious safety car procedure at the 2021 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix cost him an eighth world crown to Max Verstappen.
