Mercedes Formula One World Champion Lewis Hamilton

 Two-time Formula One world champion Lewis Hamilton
pledged to seek more silverware in the sport as he turned 30 on
Wednesday.
"I'm going for number 3!!" the Briton said at the end of a posting on
his Facebook page.
"It is hard to believe that 30 years have passed. So many great
memories. I have lived my life to fullest & am grateful for the years
I've had ... I hope I get to see many more years & create more
memories."
Hamilton also thanked his parents, with his father, Anthony Hamilton,
working in multiple jobs to finance his son's motorsport career.
Hamilton has been in F1 racing since 2007 and has 33 race victories.
He won the first world title in 2008 while at McLaren and in 2014 won
a fierce duel against Mercedes teammate Nico Rosberg for his second
trophy.
Mercedes are expected to dominate again this season which starts in
March 15 in Australia. The first tests are from February 1 onwards.
