One of the reasons why Lewis Hamilton actually agreed to purchase the Denver Broncos is for a social cause. The Briton is known for being an activist and wants more diversity in the American sport.

Starbucks chairwoman Mellody Hobson made Hamilton aware of the opportunity and the latter grabbed it. The team is having an awful season with only 2 wins to 5 losses.

Hamilton understands that there is a lack of black ownership in the NFL and would like to take this opportunity to make others aware. He understands that there is plenty of work ahead with the team.
