The seven-time Formula 1 champion now has a personal assets of £ 385 million and underlines its immense success both on and next to the route.

Hamilton is approaching the 400 million. -Pfund threshold and competes David Beckham as one of only two athletes who make it to this year's prestigious list. At 40 he is also one of the youngest people.

An essential part of his massive wealth is based on his top-class switch to Ferrari, who confirmed last year, which made him the highest paid driver in F1 history. Reports estimate that his long -term agreement is evaluated by more than 100 million GBP per year, with the basic content, the notes, the image licensing and the bonuses associated with performance are taken into account.

His creative activities, including the introduction of his production company Dawn Apollo films and cooperation in fashion, have also contributed to his growing empire and showed his business sense.

So far, the 2025 season was disappointing for Hamilton and Ferrari. Despite the occasional lightning of his legendary talent, the recurring problems of the team with the reliability of the car prevented him from being a consistent podium threat and selling it in the race to drive the title.

The cumulative assets of the 350 listed people and families, including Hamilton, is £ 772.8 billion GBP, a burglary of three percent compared to 2024.

Since its financial dynamics continue to increase, it is not only plausible to achieve 400 million GBP – it appears inevitable.

Although the recent results have been mixed on the route, Hamilton is still a great presence in the F1 world – and shows no signs of slowing down.
