Yes he should as others have done with nowhere near as much success. Whether anyone should be knighted and whether the honours system should be scrapped is a completely different question.

That’s the crux of it. Didn’t Andy Murray get his after 1 Wimbledon win? Sir Chris Hoy? I think most agree that a lot of knighthoods are ridiculous these days but by the standards they currently use, Sir Lewis Hamilton is inevitable.

Not for me why should we knight a tax exile living in Monaco? I would rather knight a key working earnings £25,000 a year and paying their income tax and NI.

I think everyone would agree with you, in an ideal world. Unfortunately that’s not how the honours tend to work these days.

A hell of a lot of rich sportsmen/businessmen (and women) avoid tax where possible. I’m not sure why Hamilton gets so much stick for it in particular though. He was a prominent name in the Panama papers stuff though wasn’t he...
