Lewis Hamilton so far in his long and illustrious career has had many successful outings in Brazil and most recently during last season’s Brazilian Grand Prix the Brit after starting from P10 was able to storm through the grid and was able to get to the chequered flag ahead of the rest of the competition.

Lewis was able to finish ahead of his fiercest rival Max Verstappen who came second followed by Hamilton’s former teammate Valtteri Bottas.

This season’s Brazilian Grand Prix is scheduled to take place on the 13th of November and given now that Hamilton has got the honorary citizenship of Brazil, the scenes in Brazil are going to be crazy when the time comes for Formula One to head to Brazil.

Lewis is a fan favorite in Brazil and is adored by fans for the thrilling and slick moves that the Brit can pull off every now and then. At the moment Mercedes are not where they want to be in terms of extracting performance from the car but they are progressing.

There are still quite a few races to go till November and Hamilton would be hoping that by the time Brazil approaches his team would be able to get on top of their problems so that he would have the chance of winning the race in Brazil and put on a great show for his die-hard fans.
