Sir Lewis Hamilton finally gets his knighthood!
Lewis Hamilton has finally been honoured by his country with a knighthood just weeks after receiving the trophy for his seventh Formula 1 world championship equalling the all-time record set by Michael Schumacher.

These now appear to have been satisfactorily resolved, with the UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson reportedly personally stepping in to approve today's award.
