Lewis Hamilton: Mercedes driver knighted by Prince Charles days after F1 heartbreak
Lewis Hamilton - named in the 2021 New Year Honours list - was denied a record-breaking eighth Formula 1 world title on Sunday after a controversial decision from race director Michael Masi saw him beaten by Max Verstappen on the final lap of Sundays Abu Dhabi Grand Prix
A knight is a person granted an honorary title of knighthood by a head of state (including the pope) or representative for service to the monarch, the church or the country, especially in a military capacity.
Sports person living in Monaco and driving for a German team. hmmmmm...
The title isn't what it was. (Not just LH)

He's also done and spent a lot on good causes, unlike for example Sir Philip Green! Also, he's the most successful British driver by a country mile so his recognition is well deserved. Sir Jackie Stewart 3 titles etc.
I wasn't picking on LH, I could list numerous names I don't think Knighthoods are appropriate for, including the 2 you mention. Sir Ray Davies from The Kinks? Yet someone like Alan Turing is just a mere OBE after all he did at Bletchley Park.
Yep, many worthy people unrecognised and many unworthy people decorated! 
In the current climate I think Sir Lewis is a most worthy recipient for all he has achieved on the track and off, however, all this started years ago when people were getting Knighted after a running couple of laps of the track under a "let's Knight everybody and everybody wins at everything" policy.
And no Sir Jason and Dame Laura Kenny. I think LH is fitting for the honour.
But missing out the two most highly decorated Olympians seems a bit sh***. They probably don’t vote for the Conservative Christmas Party though.

A new look to Eau Rouge next year as Spa gets a face lift.

"Sometimes, drivers have a little too much to drink, though."
"One example is Max Verstappen, who overindulged a bit after winning his maiden F1 World Championship in 2021."
The Red Bull driver stated :-
“So it was a lot of fun."
"Of course, when I woke up, it wasn’t so fun. I maybe regretted that final drink.”
