LEWIS HAMILTON has been congratulated for winning the 2021 F1 world title after Red Bull were found to have breached the salary cap. Red Bull were found guilty of overspending last year, when Verstappen controversially pipped Hamilton to the title in the final race of the season. But some are already congratulating Hamilton for being 2021 world champ, before the punishment is confirmed. “Congratulations Lewis Hamilton and Mercedes AMG on a well-deserved world title in 2021.”. One said: “All hail the 2021 F1 Champion, Sir Lewis Hamilton.”. Another wrote: “Sir Lewis Hamilton, the only legitimate World Champion of 2021.”. Verstappen narrowly beat Hamilton to the title in 2021 by eight points after winning the final race of the campaign in Abu Dhabi.
