(29 Aug 2020) LEWIS HAMILTON DEDICATES F1 POLE POSITION TO CHADWICK BOSEMAN
After clinching the record-extending 93rd pole position of his distinguished career, Formula One world champion Lewis Hamilton stood proudly on top of his all-black Mercedes and crossed his arms in memory of a hero of his own.
  
The British driver dedicated his latest exceptional drive at the Belgian Grand Prix Saturday (29 AUG. 2020) to American actor Chadwick Boseman, who died of cancer on Friday at the age of 43.
  
“A superhero died last night so that was really weighing heavy on me today," Hamilton said. “I was so driven to deliver a good performance today so I could dedicate it to Chad.”
  
Boseman played Black American icons Jackie Robinson and James Brown before inspiring audiences as the regal “Black Panther” in Marvel’s blockbuster movie franchise.
The film inspired the cross-armed “Wakanda forever” salute that became a pop culture landmark.
