He wrote on Instagram: “Called Sky Sports F1 and asked if they could cover my journey in life.

“To be honest, I am usually contacted by the media to use me to find information about Lewis as I feel they are not prepared to support me, my voice or story.

“But today Natalie Pinkham and her team made me feel valued, heard and that I MATTER. Not just because of who I am associated with, but because of what I have achieved on my own.

“Such an amazing opportunity that I have used to the best of my ability to inspire and help others.”
