Hamilton has enjoyed a𒉰 plethora of success during his F1 career, winning over 100 raღces.

During his time, Hamilton had the pleasure of driving some of the most dominan🤪t cars in♊ his F1 history.

Most notably, the Mercedes W11 from 2020 - which is widely-regarded as the fastest car i🌞n F1 historꦯy due to its ridiculous levels of downforce.

The COVID-hit c⛄ampaign meant the W11 didn’t get the chance to tackle high-speed venues such as Suzuka or the Circuit of the Americas.

However, when asked what his favourite F1 car is, he picked one of the 🐼iconic McLaren’s - the MP4/4.

The MP4/4 won all but one of the races in 1988 as Ayrton Senna beat Al𒀰ain Prost to the title.

"It was more like a go-kart back then, because they literally had big huge ﷽tyres with mecཧhanical grip."
