Looking back at his record-breaking career under the banner of the Mercedes star: Lewis Hamilton is the world’s most successful Formula 1® racing driver of all time. He won seven World Championship titles in a Mercedes-Benz-powered car – the first in 2008 with the McLaren-Mercedes MP4-23 and six more with Silver Arrows. Now Hamilton and the team are parting ways, and the Mercedes-Benz Museum is celebrating the legendary champion with a very special presentation. Through to 6 January 2025, six of his title winning vehicles will be on display in the Great Hall on the entrance level. Entry to the Great Hall is free of charge. His 2020 World Championship car is on proud display in the permanent exhibition in Legends Room 7: Silver Arrows – Races and Records.

The guests from the company, motorsport and the team honoured the champion for his outstanding unbeaten achievements in motor racing and for the brand, and for fairness, diversity and inclusion.
