Sky Sports just 'proved' Lewis Hamilton will win an eighth title – here's how!

Lewis Hamilton passed a 'lie detector test' as the seven-time world champion promised that he would keep driving until he wins an eighth world title.

Hamilton and Michael Schumacher lead the way with the most world drivers' championships won, with seven apiece – and it appears Hamilton is determined to cement his place atop the rankings.

In a feature during the Sky Sports TV broadcast, the Englishman was asked if he would win a record-breaking eighth title. He gave it a lot of thought, looking at the desk before raising his eyes with a steely determination, and saying: "Yes!"

Good news for any fans who were worried that Hamilton may be discouraged by the Mercedes car's poor performance.
