“I really do feel like now I’m one of you, finally' Seven-time F1 world champion Lewis Hamilton has officially been made an honorary citizen of Brazil ahead of this weekend’s BrazilGP 🇧🇷
“It is honestly the greatest honour for me to be here receiving and accepting the citizenship,” said Hamilton.“When I arrived here in 2007, the love that’s grown through the experiences we’ve had, and particularly 2021, knowing you guys would cheer me on the way was one of the most special moments of my entire life.”
Lower House Speaker Arthur Lira described Hamilton as “a Briton by birth and a Brazilian by heart” and called him “a hero for all Brazilians”.
