Rolls revealed the world’s most expensive new car
QUOTE OF THE MONTH
❝I’ll be damned if I’m going to win all these championships and not use it to make a change
SIR LEWIS HAMILTON tells Autocar why he’ll continue to speak out on social issues
Beyoncé and Jay-Z are no strangers to awards. For example, Beyoncé has won more Grammys than any other female in history, while her hubby holds the record for the most wins by a rap artist. That said, neither of them has ever won one of the most coveted prizes in the automotive industry: an Autocar Award.
Yes, in June, we handed out trophies to the best cars and most inspiring figures in the car world – although because the world is still not normal, we filmed a video at Brooklands instead of holding a big ceremony. We gave the top prize to Hyundai’s visionary boss Euisun Chung and a well-deserved Editor’s Award went to Sir Lewis Hamilton. Such is Autocar’s pull that we managed to secure exclusive interviews with both of them for our bumper awards special issue.
