Lewis Hamilton Reveals the Significance of number 44 to his fans and family – “It’s the number that…”

Lewis Hamilton mentioned that his car number ’44’ has a special significance in his personal life and also has a connection to his childhood. In 2014, Formula 1 allowed drivers to choose their own numbers for their cars.

Hamilton, who had previously raced with different numbers on his cars owing to his position in the championship, chose number 44. Speaking to F1.com, the Brit revealed that he had always raced with ’44’ on his car before entering the sport.

“That’s the number we raced with for many years, and then when I joined Formula 1, I had to be whatever the team asked me to be, and then further into my career they then decided to allow the drivers to choose their one number and that would be their number forever, and I went back to the number where it all started,” Hamilton said.

It’s the number that my family recognised the most, it’s the number that has been loyal to me and to my fans,” he said.”
