A decade ago, a ten year old boy of Afro-Carribean descent approached Ron Dennis, stating that his ambition was to drive for the Woking-based team. Ron Dennis saw potential in this young boy, for it is his money that has underpinned LH’s success at the karting and junior formula levels..
Needless to say, Hamilton will have enormous pressure – not only from the Ronster & double WC Alonso, but also from the British media…
Quoting the times..
“he could become a black sporting icon of the stature of the American golfer Tiger Woods, with the potential to earn millions”
Would it only be a matter of time (and we have a long winter ahead..) before the young lad (who is yet to start in a GP) believes that he’s WC material much on the lines of Button?
I hope not
