Moments after crossing the line to win the USGP in Austin, Lewis Hamilton dedicated his third world title to his family. The newly crowned world champion then added more praise during the FIA presser, hailing “my Dad, coming from nowhere, he never wanted his kids to struggle the way he did, so the effort that he put in was just remarkable.” Pictured above are Anthony Hamilton and his son in the wake of Lewis’ maiden crown with McLaren-Mercedes in 2008.
