Lewis Hamilton once jokingly said that his dad, Anthony Hamilton, perceives himself as a better driver than the seven-time world champion. He added that, given an opportunity, his father would love to be a professional racing driver in F1.
Hamilton is renowned as one of the greatest F1 drivers by his fans, which is largely backed by statistics. The 39-year-old holds seven world championships, 105 race victories, 202 podiums and 104 pole positions across 356 race starts. During his stint with Mercedes, the team won 8 Constructors' titles, resulting in a sensational era of dominance.
However, despite his heroics on the track, Hamilton's dad thought he was a better driver in comparison. In his interview with Top Gear recorded on August 28, 2014, the British driver elaborated on his relationship with his dad, Anthony Hamilton.
