Sky Sports Champions League •

Lewis Hamilton revealed he shed tears when Arsenal secured the Premier League title, ending a 22-year drought. The Ferrari driver, an Arsenal supporter since age 5 when his sister insisted he choose the Gunners, posted 'COYG' on social media after Manchester City's draw confirmed the championship.

Hamilton emphasized the emotional significance of the victory, recalling he was 19 when Arsenal last won in 2004—three years before his F1 debut. He praised Mikel Arteta's leadership, predicting Arsenal will "go from strength to strength" and drawing parallels between Arteta's management and his own approach in Formula 1.

After celebrating Arsenal's success, Hamilton now focuses on the Canadian Grand Prix with Ferrari. The seven-time world champion acknowledged Mercedes' current dominance but expressed hope for improved performance, stating the team has worked hard to analyze and adjust their approach after recent disappointing results.
