Second would be the play that bears his name.

Third would be the watch company. I likely would not even think of a race driver with the fantastic luck of driving the fastest car on the field by far. Yes, he is very talented, and can squeeze every bit out of it, but from what George Russell showed, it is the car, not just the driver.

Which is why I prefer pool....there it's the skill and knowledge of the player, not the cue. Pool pros play with a cue made by whoever pays the best sponsorship money. Currently, that seems to be a brand called predator. But really, it's like Nike and shoes...the equipment used doesn't matter as much as the talent of those using it. Does anybody think if Hamilton switched to one of the perennial also ran low bucks teams, they'd win the championship?
