It's Burberry. I did a lot of research, and came across this 18th-century gardener that through slavery times came over from Africa to Wales & became the first black gardener in Wales, so through adversity really triumphed. So that's really where the inspiration has come from.

It has been over two years since Hamilton last won a Grand Prix in F1.

For me, this whole journey has been massively emotional just because I have so much love for this team. Of course we exist to win and when you’re not winning, your perspective has to shift. And it’s just been about chasing and it’s about improvement. It’s about coming together. How can we make improvements? How can we get back to where we want to be and rallying and everyone out?
Lewis Hamilton said in an interview with CBS
