The Stevenage racer claimed his first title in just his second season, 2008, driving for McLaren-Mercedes. After moving to Mercedes-AMG, Hamilton took back-to-back titles in 2014 and 2015, and has now added a fourth championship to that tally.

2007 AUSTRALIAN GRAND PRIX
Hamilton qualified his McLaren-Mercedes fourth for his first grand prix, then made a stellar start to jump past double world champion team-mate Fernando Alonso.
Alonso eventually jump Hamilton during the pit stops to finish second behind Ferrari's Kimi Raikkonen, but third place on his debut marked the Brit out as a major talent.
