For Lewis Hamilton, the recent Grand Prix in São Paulo was a very special occasion. By taking part in the race at the Autódromo José Carlos Pace, he achieved what only former champion Fernando Alonso had managed before him: the seven-time world champion contested his 400th Grand Prix.
However, there is one key difference between the two Grand Prix stars when it comes to reaching this milestone: unlike the Asturian, who made his 445th Formula 1 start in Brazil last week, Hamilton has not taken a break; he is currently competing in his 20th consecutive Grand Prix season.
In the Interlagos paddock, Hamilton’s 400th Grand Prix start was naturally a talking point, and Formula 1 champion Kimi Antonelli also had his say on the matter. The 20-year-old, who will have to keep racing until at least 2041 to join the 400-Grand Prix club, gushed: “He’s incredible. First of all, it’s remarkable how he still manages to deliver such top performances at his age – just like Fernando.”

“The fact that he still approaches his work with the same hunger and determination is both cool and inspiring. And it’s a good sign for me too. I’m only 20 and I hope that, at the age of 41, I’ll still be competing in Formula 1 races and battling it out at the top,” explained the Mercedes driver.
“It’s incredible what Lewis has achieved; he’s already broken many records and is still doing so. I’m very happy to be able to compete against him – it’s a great privilege. I hope there will be many more duels in the future,” added Antonelli, who took over Hamilton’s seat at the Mercedes works team when Hamilton moved to Ferrari.
