Driving The F1 Feeling
The straps are pulled so tight there is
zero movement in the seat. My feet
are at the height of my hips, if not
higher, but it feels extremely com-
fortable.
The steering wheel, with its plethora
of switches, is shunted into place on
the quick-release mechanism. It’s
surprisingly close to my face, liter-
ally no more than six inches away.
A quick test reveals I can turn the
wheel left and right 90 degrees no
problem, and easily reach the engine
cut-off switch to my bottom right.
I’ll need that later.

The Team with 100% Season Win rate
Brawn GP was a Formula One constructor, created in 2009 by a management buyout of
Honda Racing F1 Team led by Ross Brawn, after Honda announced their withdrawal from
the sport in late 2008. The team only competed in the 2009 FIA Formula One World Cham-
pionship, with drivers Jenson Button and Rubens Barrichello. On its racing debut, the
season-opening 2009 Australian Grand Prix, the team took pole position and 2nd place in
qualifying and went on to finish first and second in the race. Button won six of the first sev-
en races of the season and on 18 October at the Brazilian Grand Prix, he secured the 2009
Drivers’ Championship and the team won the Constructors’ Championship. Barrichello
won twice and finished third in the Drivers’ Championship. The team won eight of the sea-
son’s seventeen races, and by winning both titles in its only year of competition became
the first to achieve a 100% championship success rate.

The Successor
On 16 November 2009 it was confirmed that the team’s engine supplier, Mercedes-
Benz, in partnership with Aabar Investments had purchased a 75.1% stake in
Brawn GP, which was renamed Mercedes GP for the 2010 season. After Taken over
by Mercedes Formula One team, Mercedes has become one of the most success-
ful teams in recent Formula One history, having achieved consecutive Drivers’ and
Constructors’ Championships from 2014 to 2019. Its 2020 drivers are Lewis Ham-
ilton and Valtteri Bottas. In 2019, they beat the record Michael Schumacher and
Ferrari set in 2004 which was 5 consecutive championship doubles, with Mercedes

Hamilton Supporting Black Lives Matter Slogan The Rising Champion
13 Lewis Carl Davidson Hamilton
borned on 7 January 1985 is a British
racing driver currently competing in
Formula One for the Mercedes-AMG
Petronas Formula One Team. A six-
time Formula One World Champion,
he is widely regarded as one of the
greatest drivers in the history of the
sport, and considered by some to be
the greatest of all time. He won his
first World Drivers’ Championship
with McLaren in 2008, before moving
to Mercedes in 2013, with whom he
has won a further five titles. One of
the most successful drivers in the
history of the sport, Hamilton now
is a 6 title championship holder by
2019.
By 2020, Lewis Hamilton Achieved
one of the greatest Achievement which
is to have the same race win as Mi-
chael Schumacher. Michael is a 7 time
F1 world champion. Listed in the 2020
issue of Time as one of the 100 most
influential people globally, Hamilton has
been credited with furthering Formula
One’s global following by appealing to
a broader audience outside the sport,
in part due to his high-profile lifestyle,
environmental and social activism as
well as his exploits in music and fash-
ion. Hamilton has been targeted by
racist abuse throughout his career and
has been outspoken in his criticism of
racial politics in Formula One as well as
advocating for greater diversity in the
sport. His treatment by British newspa-
pers has also been criticised for carry-
ing racial bias, and some have pointed
to Hamilton’s race and physical appear-
ance as reasons behind his perceived
unpopularity among a portion of motor-
sport fans.
The Legendary Champion
Michael Schumacher borned on 3 January
1969 is a German retired racing driver who
competed in Formula One for Jordan Grand
Prix, Benetton, Ferrari (where he spent
most of his career), and Mercedes upon his
return to the sport. Schumacher is widely
regarded as one of the greatest Formula
One drivers ever, and is regarded by some,
including six-time world champion Lewis
Hamilton, as the greatest of all time. Schu-
macher is the only driver in history to win
seven Formula One World Championships,
five of which he won consecutively.
Schumacher won five consecutive drivers’
titles from 2000 to 2004, including an unprec-
edented sixth and seventh title. In 2002, Schu-
macher won the title with a record six races
remaining and finished on the podium in every
race. In 2004, Schumacher won 12 out of the
first 13 races, and went on to win a record 13
times as he won his final title. Schumacher
retired from Formula One in 2006, after finish-
ing runner-up to Renault’s Fernando Alonso.
Schumacher returned to Formula One in 2010
with Mercedes. He produced the fastest qual-
ifying time at the 2012 Monaco Grand Prix, and
achieved his only podium on his return at the
2012 European Grand Prix, where he finished
third. In October 2012 Schumacher announced
he would retire for a second time at the end of
the season.

The Futuristic Concept FIA Logo
During 2019, the FIA announced its plan
for the 2021 race seasons. After more
than two years of work involving the most
detailed analysis of the sport’s on- and
off-track operations, the FIA and Formula
1 have confirmed the future direction of
the sport with the publication of a com-
prehensive set of new regulations that
will define the series from 2021 onwards.
Presented at the Circuit of The Ameri-
cas in Austin by Formula 1 Chairman and
CEO Chase Carey and FIA President Jean
Todt, following ratification by the World
Motor Sport Council, the regulations are
targeted at promoting closer racing and
more balanced competition, as well as
bringing economic and sporting sustain-
ability to Formula 1.
