British Formula One driver Lewis Hamilton will receive his knighthood on Wednesday despite his controversial loss of the world championship on Sunday in UAE's capital, Abu Dhabi.

He is due to attend an investiture at Windsor Castle to be honored for his services to motorsports.

The 36-year-old was given his knighthood in the New Year Honors list in 2020 following pressure on Prime Minister Boris Johnson to approve the appointment.

Hamilton, who matched Michael Schumacher's record of seven world titles in 2020, will be appointed just days after he was denied a record eighth Formula One crown.

Red Bull's Dutch driver Max Verstappen grabbed his first-ever championship title after going head to head with Hamilton.

Verstappen stormed past his title rival in the closing stages of the Grand Prix season finale at the Yas Marina Circuit, having benefitted from a late safety car decision.

Mercedes, Hamilton's team, are expected to appeal again after two protests they made against Verstappen's victory were rejected by stewards.

The appeal must be lodged within 96 hours from the moment they indicated their intention to do so.
