Understandably, this was an important recognition from Cullen. The New Zealander has arguably played a massive role in Hamilton’s successful career.

“She’s focused, selfless, and she makes my weekends peaceful. Every day I wake up, whatever time it is, she’s just positive – never a single day has she been negative, so that’s very, very important.”
In a harsh environment like Formula 1, friendships and bonds are arguably tough to forge. However, the Cullen-Hamilton bond is one for the books.
