Lewis Hamilton is not only on the track with his Mercedes! The seven-time British F1 world champion is one of the richest sportsmen in the world. Last year Hamilton put a house worth about $ 43 million up for sale. It is a property in which Justin Timberlake, Harry Styles, Jake Gyllenhaal also lived.
The dream home is located in Tribeca, south of Manhattan, New York The strangeness of the story is very singular: despite Lewis bought the property, he never lived there! And in fact the logical consequence of this was the listing of this luxurious house in Manhattan.
The house for sale extends over three floors, including a huge glazed terrace, for a total of over 2,700 square meters. Inside there are five bedrooms, six bathrooms, a private swimming pool, a library and a professional kitchen.
The three floors can be reached via an internal and private lift. The buyer remained anonymous and a Seattle-based company managed the purchase in his/her place. The property Hamilton sold isn’t the only luxury dream he owns though.
The Mercedes champion also owns another penthouse in New York, and a $ 20 million mansion in London. Some highlights about Lewis Born of a mixed couple, with a father of Caribbean descent and dark complexion and a mother with a fair complexion, Hamilton is the first mulatto driver in history to have participated in a Formula 1 grand prix, as well as the first to win a world title.
Since his debut in the top category, Hamilton has won at least one race and one pole position during the world championship, making him the only driver in the history of the highest formula to have succeeded from the first season for fifteen consecutive years.
With seven world titles he is the most successful Briton of all time, as well as the only Anglo-Saxon to have managed to triumph for four consecutive editions (in 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2020). His race number is 44. He is also owner of the “X44” Electric SUV team, in the Extreme E championship.
