Finally a story about Lewis I can identify with, just the overhanging tree problem not the mansion unfortunately

A private driveway?! This guy is living on a different planet to us mere mortals.

Actually quite funny banter from Lewis here: https://fb.watch/cx6_LQY3Dz/

That’s not very ‘green’ is it? Though I suppose it is quite vegan.

TBH with that story, he's fked whatever he does; ignore the neighbour, keep the tree and look aloof and inconsiderate, remove the tree and risk the ire of the eco brigade.

Anyway, I really hope he's channeling Ryan Reynolds when he's looking at buying a football team. I don't follow football at all, but seeing Hollywood actors advertising Ifor Williams trailers is just epic.

Despite some of the headlines, he's not actually 'buying Chelsea', just part of a large consortium of investors chipping in. I'm sure he has 100s of investments all over the place.

Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney actually own Wrexham AFC via their own company.

Still the best celebrity endorsement. Ever.

I see Hamilton has made the number 5 spot on the Sunday Times top 100 Giving List. That's based on the percentage of their wealth given or generated for charities.

The story about the phone call regarding his mothers death is lovely, you can see how much affection he still holds for him. Somebody told a similar story about Lewis on the F1 podcast a few years ago too, James Allison I think.

Thank you for sharing that.
Wonderful!

Stewart being Stewart. A bitter, patronising little prat.

It's really sad how Stewart has always had such an issue with Hamilton. JYS was a bit of a hero figure to me a long time ago, these days I find him more and more embarrassing and disappointing.

Does he pay any UK tax or still for many many many decades based in Monaco / offshore thus avoiding UK taxes?

I don’t have the faintest idea. Nor do I see how it’s relevant to the topic being discussed.
