The message from Serena is also one of motivation as Lewis is currently eight points behind rival Max Verstappen with two races to go. If he were to win the driver’s championship, it would be his record-breaking 8th title. 

Both athletes are absolute legends in their respective sports and are still going strong. The manner in which the British driver has been performing in recent years has been phenomenal. The American superstar has been the most dominant player in the women’s game in the modern era.
