Hamilton made his F1 debut with McLaren and scored a podium finish at Albert Park in Melbourne in his first race with the team. He was also famously one point short of winning the world championship in his rookie season in 2007.
In 2008, he defeated Felipe Massa by passing Timo Glock on the last lap to claim his first world title. Since then, he has won six more world titles with Mercedes.
Also, the 37-year-old is the only F1 driver to have won more than 100 races and won more than 100 pole positions. In addition to racing, he has also been known internationally for his activism and fashion collaborations.
