Lewis Hamilton’s father Anthony Hamilton is set to take on a role within the FIA as part of a new young driver development programme.
Hamilton, who has been working in an advisory capacity over the last 18 months for the FIA, is understood to be “very motivated” to take on the new role.
The 65-year-old is expected to be confirmed in his new role in June when the FIA launches its Young Driver Development Pathway.
Lewis Hamilton has appeared not to be on best terms with FIA president Mohammed Ben Sulayem, who has been impressed with Anthony’s advisory work.
Lewis claimed Ben Sulayem used words with a “racial element” when urging F1 drivers not to swear on the radio as he compared them to rappers.
As recently as on Thursday ahead of this weekend’s Emilia Romagna Grand Prix, the Ferrari driver criticised the saga around swearing after the FIA reduced the fines for using offensive language.
Racing Bulls rookie Isack Hadjar was left in tears after crashing during the formation lap before the race started at the Australian Grand Prix but was consoled by Anthony Hamilton
“It is ridiculous. I don’t really know. Nothing I say is going to make any difference to it,” said Hamilton.
“It seems a bit of a mess there at the moment. There are lots of changes that are needed, for sure. But it doesn’t really affect me. I don’t see what’s happened since then.”
Anthony Hamilton has been advising the FIA since the end of 2023

It’s a big ask, but Palace have shown they have quality to upset City
It was February 15, 2024 and there was a feeling of sadness, discontent and chaos at Crystal Palace's training ground.Roy Hodgson appeared on the brink of losing his job. Results had nosedived and the fans were furious. Their club were lacking direction on the pitch and seemingly had none off it. Oliver Glasner was being lined up to stop the season meandering towards a relegation scrap. Somewhat surprisingly, Hodgson was still set to hold a pre-match press conference ahead of their next game against fellow strugglers Everton.Yet as assembled journalists gathered outside the club's Beckenham training base, something else was brewing. Stood outside the gates, news broke that the audience with Hodgson had been pulled with just over half an hour's notice.The former England manager had been taken ill during the morning's training session. He was en route to hospital […]

Lewis Dunk back in Brighton & Hove Albion squad for game against Liverpool after hamstring injury
Lewis Dunk is back in the Brighton & Hove Albion squad for the final home game of the season against Liverpool on Monday.The long-serving captain sat out last Saturday’s 2-0 win at Wolverhampton Wanderers as a precaution, because of a minor hamstring issue.Head coach Fabian Hurzeler confirmed Dunk’s availability this morning during his press conference for Liverpool’s visit.AdvertisementHurzeler’s side kept a first clean sheet in the league for ten games in the victory at Molineux, with Adam Webster replacing Dunk in the centre of defence alongside player of the season Jan Paul van Hecke.It was Webster’s first start since sustaining a hamstring injury in the FA Cup quarter-final exit on penalties against Nottingham Forest at the Amex Stadium in March.Dunk has not been an automatic choice after previous injuries this season.

Statistiky legendární, ale zase předčasný konec. S Ovečkinem přešli Capitals jen jednou druhé kolo
V celé sérii dal Ovečkin jediný gól z přesilovky pět na tři, zaznamenal celkem 14 střel, v hodnocení plus/minus posbíral 39letý útočník tři záporné body, z toho dva v posledním zápase. A fanoušci mu vyčítají zejména situaci před vítězným gólem Caroliny.Za stavu 1:1 Ovečkin pálil vedle a pak se vydal až k zadnímu mantinelu ve snaze napadat rozehrávku Hurricanes. Na rychlý návrat už nezbyly síly a kapitán Capitals měl jako na dlani akci soupeřů, která vyvrcholila střelou Andreje Svečnikova z úhlu, jež zaskočila gólmana Logana Thompsona.Ovechkin is obese. He turns the puck over then does nothing. Don’t even think he realizes he’s playing playoff hockey. Makes me appreciate Crosby so much more pic.twitter.com/GQAArvViYR— dylan (@dizzywizzydylan) May 16, 2025 „Myslím, že Ovie byl v play off skvělý, i když třeba statistiky nebudou tak lichotivé,“ zastal se největší hvězdy týmu kouč Spencer Carbery.Ovečkin v základní části nastřílel 44 branek za 65 utkání, překonal také historický gólový rekord Waynea […]
