Hamilton’s exit from Mercedes has been commemorated in style, with the champion receiving a series of special tributes from his team.

The Mercedes star also drove his old championship-winning cars at Silverstone prior to his exit, whilst he also embarked on a farewell tour back at the Brackley factory.

Hamilton leaves behind an incredible legacy with the team, where he joined Michael Schumacher on seven world titles in 2020, his sixth with Mercedes.

Recently, a Topps trading card from his record-breaking season depicting Hamilton, has recently sold for an extraordinary amount.

The card sold for over $1 million, which ensured Hamilton became the first driver to sell a card for this amount, breaking his own record of $900K.

Undoubtedly, Topps will produce their trading cards for the 2025 season, where Hamilton will debut in red and will feature the first card of the champion at Ferrari.
