My Ride: Mini Cooper
I will be going to see him in july 
A lifelike statue of reigning world champion Lewis Hamilton was unveiled by London's Madame Tussauds wax museum on Wednesday.
The McLaren driver in December underwent 300 measurements for the immortalisation, which was reported to have cost nearly $230,000.
His figure is complete with his full McLaren overalls and race gear, depicting him holding his helmet and gloves.
