Lewis Hamilton 於1月7日迎來40歲生日!

在F1賽車史中,Lewis Hamilton是首位──更是唯一的黑人F1車手,隨著2024年F1賽季落幕,在賓士效力超過10年的Sir Lewis Hamilton 正式告 別Mercedes-AMG 車隊,並於2025年轉戰 Scuderia Ferrari ,尋求他拿下世界冠軍「第八勝」的可能性,象徵與賓士車隊合作無間的全盛輝煌時期正式劃下句點。但,Hamilton始終做的比「一位賽車手」更多:以行動支持黑人平權運動、成立基金會支持青少年發展,並積極推動少數族裔在賽車相關領域的能見度,甚至將賽道化身為他華麗的伸展台...(Lewis Hamilton常選擇少數族群或黑人設計師的作品)。

延伸閱讀:睽違945天王者歸來!Lewis Hamilton奪銀石大獎賽冠軍,創單一賽道最多冠軍紀錄!Hamilton:「我們沒有失去希望。沒有放棄。」

或許多數人認為賽車手出生非富即貴,不同於一般車手有著含金湯匙出生的富貴家庭,Hamilton的父親是靠著打四份零工,才勉強支撐他參加賽車比賽的夢。而從小,他便提前感受到世界對有色種人種的冷酷與歧視,學齡時他不僅因為黑人膚色遭到同儕排擠,甚至一度被退學,「你永遠做不到……你不可能做到。」這些負面聲音從孩提時代便圍繞著他,但Hamilton明白,淚流滿面解決不了問題,唯有行動才能反擊。

直到現在,Lewis Hamilton 更積極提倡種族平等,在 2020 年的 F1 賽季中,他多次在賽前穿著支持「Black Lives Matter」運動的服裝,並在獲勝後跪下表示支持。Hamilton 還成立了 Hamilton Commission,目的是調查並解決英國賽車運動中的種族不平等問題,這項委員會專注於為少數族裔背景的年輕人創造更多機會,進入 STEM(科學、技術、工程和數學)領域。

「Powerful Beyond Measure」(力量無可限量)這句刺青烙印在Hamilton的胸前,也詮釋了他在賽道上創下的傳奇紀錄。而在賽道之外,Hamilton 用自己的方式重新定義了成功,讓全世界看到,冠軍不僅只在追求勝利,更致力於為世界帶來正向改變!以下帶你看 Lewis Hamilton 12句人生金句。

1. 這是關於為平等而奮鬥,為每個人爭取一個更美好的世界。“It’s about fighting for equality, fighting for a better world for everyone.”

2. 你只需要接受真實的自己、並以自己為榮,這正是我所努力的方向。“You just need to be accepted for who you are and be proud of who you are .That is what I’m trying to do.”

Tatler Asia

3. 「大多數時候,我們都在設限。我們永遠不應該為了讓他人感到……更好,而調暗自己的光芒。」 “We limit ourselves the majority of the time. And where it really hit me hard is: We should never have to dim our light in order to make others feel….”

4. 對於全球非裔族群而言,時尚是一種自我保存的方式。時尚是韌性的象徵,我迫不及待想探索並放大那些被低估的聲音。“For Black people across the diaspora, fashion is self-preservation. Fashion is resilience, and I can’t wait to further explore and amplify our underrepresented voices.”

5. 我並不想成為其他車手的翻版——我希望成為獨一無二的自己。“I don’t aspire to be like other drivers – I aspire to be unique in my own way.”

6. 但當你真正熱愛自己所做的事時,就會拍拍灰塵,繼續奮戰下去! “When you really care about what you’re doing you brush it off and keep fighting!”

7. 在賽車中,每天都有新的學習,總有進步的空間,我相信這適用於人生中的一切。“In racing there are always things you can learn, every single day. There is always space for improvement, and I think that applies to everything in life.”

8. 我生來為賽道而戰,注定要贏得每一場勝利。“I was born to race and to win.

9. 你可以擊倒我,但我會以雙倍的力量重新站起來。“You can knock me down, but I get up twice as strong.”

10. 從我還是個孩子開始啊,規則...我一直都不喜歡被規定要做什麼。“Since I was a kid—rules...I’ve never loved being told what to do.“

11. 我覺得大家都期待我會失敗,因此,我期待自己能夠獲勝。“I feel like people are expecting me to fail; therefore, I expect myself to win.”
