LEWIS HAMILTON says his campaign to promote equality means more to him than a seventh world title. We’re going to continue to fight for more championships, we’re going to continue to try and improve and continue to race and do what we love doing. Perhaps, given that the title takes second billing to his work for equality, Hamilton says he is not thinking about matching Schumacher’s total this weekend. Hamilton admits it took some convincing from Ross Brawn and Niki Lauda — who were both working for Mercedes at the time — when they first approached him about signing. “I love racing and the challenge and I don’t think that is going to change any time soon.”.
