British World Champion Grand Prix Drivers


In 2010 Royal Mail released a commemorative sheet of 10 stamps featuring Britain's 10 Grand Prix World Champion Drivers. From Mike Hawthorn to Jenson Button this one is a
perfect collectible. After Lewis Hamilton and Jenson Button won their Championship in 2008 & 2009 respectively there was lot of speculation on whether Royal Mail will issue a commemorative stamp to honour them or not , but it seems worth the wait. The only other 2 countries which comes next in the list of most number of Drivers won the championship country wise is Brazil and Finland , each having 3 drivers. A perfect 10 seems to be a record , safe for Britain for at least few years from now.
