Prisons are beyond crowded and theres a new outbreak in the heroin epidemic. If its time for a change, it would be hard to find a leader more different than michael botticelli. The president s new director of National Drug control policy isnt a cop. Hes lucky he didnt go to jail himself. And we knew that things had changed the first time we used the nickname that comes with his job, the drug czar. Michael botticelli its actually a title that i dont like. Pelley why . Botticelli because i think it connotes this old war on drugs focus to the work that we do. It portrays that we are clinging to kind of failed policies and failed practices in the past. Pelley are you saying that the way we have waged the war on drugs for more than 40 years has been all wrong . Botticelli it has been all wrong. Pelley blunt force didnt knock out the drug epidemic. 21 million americans are addicted to drugs or alcohol, and half of all federal inmates are in for drug crimes. Botticelli we cant arrest and incarcerate addiction out of people. Not only do i think its really inhumane, but its ineffective and it costs us billions upon billions of dollars to keep doing this. Pelley so what have we learned . Botticelli weve learned addiction is a brain disease. This is not a moral failing. This is not about bad people who are choosing to continue to use drugs because they lack willpower. You know, we dont expect people with cancer just to stop having cancer. Pelley arent they doing it to themselves . Isnt a heroin addict making that choice . Botticelli of course not. You know, the hallmark of addiction is that it changes your brain chemistry. It actually affects that part of your brain thats responsible for judgment. Pelley that is the essence of michael botticellis approach addicts should be patients, not prisoners. He did it in massachusetts as director of Substance Abuse services. There, his initiatives included a high school for teens in recovery, and expanding drug courts, like this one in washington, d. C. , where offenders can choose treatment over jail, and the charges can be dropped. applause you know that there are people watching this interview and theyre saying to themselves, oh, great. He wants to open the jails and let the drug addicts out. Botticelli i think we have to base our policy on scientific understanding, you know, and weve had really great models and evaluated models to show that we can simultaneously divert people away from our criminal Justice System without an increase in crime. And it actually reduces crime. Pelley botticelli pursues reform with the passion of the converted because he, himself, is recovering from addiction. Back in 1988, he was a University Administrator whose car slammed into a truck. Botticelli was drunk. In truth, hed been drunk for years. Did you love drinking . Botticelli i would say that i probably had an unhealthy love affair with drinking. You know, i grew up as this kind of insecure kid, you know, kind of making my way. And, you know, drinking took all of that away, you know . People drink and do drugs for a reason, because it makes them feel good, you know, until it doesnt anymore. Pelley is it true that, after the accident, you woke up handcuffed to a gurney . Botticelli i did. I did. And, you know, you think to yourself, how did i get to this point, you know, in my life . Pelley that point included imminent eviction from his apartment because the booze had washed away all the money. Botticelli a very wise judge said to me, michael, you have two options you can either get care for your drinking problem, or we can continue with criminal proceedings. Pelley it was at that point that you walked into this church and went to the 12step meeting down in the basement . Botticelli yeah, i did. Pelley what was that first meeting like . Botticelli its hard for me to talk about this, and not from a sense of sadness. From a sense of tremendous gratitude. This was the first time that i raised my hand and said that i was an alcoholic and that i had a problem. And what the miraculous thing about that movement is that people rally around you in ways. You know, addiction is such an isolating incident in your life. You feel alone. And, you know, when you admit. When you come into a fellowship like this and people just surround you and say, we will help you, that youre not alone, that weve been through it before, and you will get through it, just gives you such great hope. Pelley hes been alcohol free for 27 years. Today, he oversees a 26 billion budget across 16 government agencies. Just over half of the money goes to drug enforcement. What do you say to those who argue, and there are many, that if you lock down the southern border, you solve the drug problem . Botticelli i think its overly simplistic to say that any one single strategy is going to really change the focus and change the trajectory of drug use. Pelley for example, he says the heroin crisis was created here at home. Botticelli we know one of the drivers of heroin has been the misuse of pain medication. If were going to deal with heroin and heroin use in the united states, we really have to focus on reducing the magnitude of the Prescription Drug use issue. Pelley many pain drugs are opioids, like heroin. And the number of opioid prescriptions has risen from 76 million in 1991 to 207 million today. Botticelli we have a medical community that gets little training on pain, gets little training on addiction, and quite honestly has been promoting and continues to promote the overprescribing of these pain medications. Pelley some are born addicted. We met botticelli at massachusetts general, where dr. Leslie kerzner weans infants off of opioids. Leslie kerzner im just going to give him this little bit of morphine right in his cheek. Pelley in the last decade, the number of expectant mothers on opioids has increased five fold. Kerzner if they dont get the treatment, they could have a seizure, and thats what we really worry about. Pelley but how does a person who is addicted to prescription pain medication find themselves on heroin . Botticelli Prescription Drugs and heroin act in very similar ways on the brain. And, you know, unfortunately, heroin, because of its widespread availability, is a lot cheaper on the streets of boston and many places around this country. Pelley heroin is cheaper than prescription painkillers . Botticelli it is. So, a bag of heroin could be as cheap as 5, 10. Pelley more than 120 americans die of drug overdoses each day. That is more than car wrecks or gun violence. To save lives, botticelli started an experiment in 2010 with the quincy, massachusetts, police. Lieutenant Patrick Glynn is head of narcotics. Patrick glynn when someone dies of an overdose, the Community Becomes very, very small. Everyone knows each other, even in a large city as ours. Just recently, in the past four to six months, some of our officers have lost children. Pelley in a city of about 100,000 people, did i just understand you to say that some of your officers have lost children to drug overdoses . Glynn yes. Pelley how many . Glynn two did. Two. They. Two of them lost sons. Pelley in what period of time . Glynn within the last six months. Pelley botticelli helped arm every quincy officer with naloxone, a nasal spray antidote for overdose. Lieutenant glynn saw it work on an unconscious addict. Glynn within about 45 seconds to a minute, they started to move around, their eyes fluttered, and they began to sit up and speak. Pelley must have looked like a miracle . Glynn its surreal. Pelley and they got to the victim in time due to a controversial innovation called the Good Samaritan law. One of the changes that came under botticellis administration was that someone involved in drugs, if there was an overdose, they could call 911, and they would not be arrested for having drugs on the premises. Glynn correct. Pelley what difference did that make . Glynn that opened the floodgates of people calling 911. Pelley today, 32 states have a similar 911 law, and naloxone is carried by more than 800 police departments. In massachusetts, botticelli helped make treating addiction routine healthcare, so patients can get their opioid treatments now in a doctors office. Things have been going really well for you. Well figure out the path you can walk down to stay in recovery. Pelley and today, the Affordable Care act requires most Insurance Companies to cover addiction treatment. Botticelli i often say that Substance Use is one of the last diseases where wed let people reach their most acute phase of this disorder before we offer them intervention. Youve heard the phrase hitting bottom. Well, we dont say that with any other disorder. So the medical community has a key role to play in terms of doing a better job of identifying people in the early stages of their disease, in doing a better job at treating people who have this disorder. Pelley notice that word disorder. Botticelli prefers it to addiction. He wants to lift the stigma by changing the language, as he did this past october in a rally on the national mall. Botticelli we must choose to come out in the light and be treated with dignity and respect. So lets stop whispering about this disease. Pelley botticelli sees a model for the change in attitude in the gay rights movement, which he has also lived. Hes been with his husband, david wells, more than 20 years. At what point were you comfortable talking about being a gay man . Botticelli before i was comfortable talking about being an alcoholic. Pelley the alcoholism was harder . Botticelli you know, even kind of feeling that moment of hesitation about saying that im in recovery and not about being a gay man shows to me that we still have more work to do to really destigmatize addiction. Pelley but its addiction to legal drugs alcohol and tobacco that kill the most americans, over half a million a year. Botticelli does not believe in adding another drug to that cocktail with the legalization of marijuana. Youre not a fan . Botticelli im not a fan. What weve seen, quite honestly, is a dramatic decrease in the perception of risk among youth around occasional marijuana use. And they are getting the message that, because its legal, that it is. Theres no harm associated with it. So, we know that about one in nine people who use marijuana become addicted to marijuana. Its been associated with poor academic performance, in exacerbating Mental Health conditions, linked to lower iq. Pelley botticelli worries the Marijuana Industry is quickly adapting big tobaccos playbook. In the 1990s, Tobacco Companies appealed to kids with flavored cigarettes and joe camel. Today, the nearly 3 billion Marijuana Industry promotes sweetened edibles and buddie, a mascot for legalization. You are never going to be able to talk all the states out of the tax revenue that will come from a burgeoning Marijuana Industry. It will just be too seductive. Botticelli you know, thats, quite honestly, my fear is that states are going to become dependent on the revenue. Pelley it becomes a codependency. Botticelli it becomes an addiction to, unfortunately, a tax revenue thats often based on bad Public Health policy. Pelley as for his own recovery, botticelli says it gets easier, though he still attends those 12step meetings that he called miraculous. There are people watching this interview right now who are addicted to drugs, are alcoholics. And they cannot stop. And to them, you say what . Botticelli that theres help. That theres hope. That there is treatment available. If i, in some small way, can help people to see that there is this huge, incredible life on the other side of addiction, you know, i will feel accomplished in my job. Made a simple tripvere chto the grocery storeis anything but simple. So finally, i had an important conversation with my dermatologist about humira. He explained that humira works inside my body to target and help block a specific source of inflammation that contributes to my symptoms. In clinical trials, most adults saw 75 skin clearance. And the majority were clear or almost clear in just 4 months. Humira can lower your ability to fight infections, including tuberculosis. Serious, sometimes fatal infections and cancers, including lymphoma, have happened; as have blood, liver, and nervous system problems, serious allergic reactions, and new or worsening heart failure. Before treatment, get tested for tb. Tell your doctor if youve been to areas where certain fungal infections are common, and if youve had tb, hepatitis b, are prone to infections, or have flulike symptoms or sores. Dont start humira if you have an infection. Ask your dermatologist about humira. Because with humira clearer skin is possible. A box. Whats this . It takes worn out things and makes them better.

Whitaker this week, the curtain goes up on the most anticipated movie of the year, star wars the force awakens. Its the first new star wars in a decade, and the first to be made without creator george lucas. Three years ago, lucas sold his empire to the Walt Disney Company for 4 billion. Enter j. J. Abrams, the director handpicked to reignite the fan fervor, and who is under tremendous pressure to make sure disneys big bet pays off. Hes been called the Steven Spielberg of his generation, and we learned spielberg helped get him the job. When abrams took us behind the scenes, we found a 49yearold man fueled by a childlike enthusiasm for the magic of movies, and a movie thats going to hit some classic star wars notes. Six weeks before the premiere, we dropped in on a hollywood scoring session for the force awakens. Composer John Williams, who won an Academy Award for the first star wars film, was back, along with the iconic refrain he wrote 38 years ago. Take a look behind williams. Thats not some awestruck groupie. Thats the movies director, j. J. Abrams. I saw you up here with your video camera, taking. J. J. Abrams oh, well, this is. This is, like, momentous, you know John Williams conducting his star wars music. I mean, as a fan, i cant even believe i get to be here. Whitaker abrams saw star wars when he was 11, and never outgrew his passion for the film. On this day, when he wasnt in the middle of the orchestra, filming on his phone, he was racing around the soundstage, here the fan. John williams do you think it could work . Abrams let me just think. Yeah. Its incredible. Whitaker . There the director. Abrams we may need to make the bumbadabada. Repeat those bars just because it might be a little bit longer before we get into the interior of the transport. Whitaker i see you running around. I mean, youre very. Abrams really . Ive. Ive felt so calm today. Whitaker yeah. This is you, calm . Abrams really, this is me, oh, god. Whitaker this is you, calm . Abrams yeah. Whitaker is it intimidating, in any way . Abrams uh. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Its. There are moments of just abject terror, as to what. What were all taking on. Whitaker what hes taking on is this the force awakens. Disney is counting on abrams to expand the universe of star wars fans, while staying true to george lucas original vision. And the diehard fans their expectations are out of this world. The force its calling to you. Whitaker when the official trailer was posted online, it was viewed 112 million times in just 24 hours. Nothing will stand in our way. Whitaker talk about the force. The fans are a force to be reckoned with, and its intense. Abrams it is. Whitaker its not just the fans here; this is global. Abrams its not a movie. Its a. Its. Its bigger than all of us. Its a. Its almost a religion for people. Whitaker what grabbed you about star wars . Abrams the experience of it was so profound and so moving and so funny and so sweet that, for me, as a kid, it blew my mind. And it was just. It said, anything is possible. Whitaker abrams has been working on the force awakens nonstop for three years. Hes managed to keep a tight lid on it. This is one of the few clips disney has released. He told us his movie is set about 30 years after return of the jedi, the final film in the first trilogy. At the end of that movie, the good guys had vanquished the empire and subdued the dark side. Or so it seemed. What has been going on in that galaxy . Abrams return of the jedi seemed to end pretty happily. But the walk off to the sunset is always a misleading thing, because, well, then what . And so, one of the things that i think you see in this movie is that things didnt just end happily, and that the idea of the force both the dark and the light side are at a classic star wars place, which is in a desperate moment. Whitaker a moment which forces a new generation to step up. Finn we cant outrun them. Rey we might in that quad jumper. Whitaker stepping into a lead role 23yearold newcomer daisy ridley. Her character is rey, a desert scavenger. John boyega is another new face. He plays finn, a disillusioned storm trooper. Finn ive got nothing to fight for. Whitaker your universe seems to be a more diverse place, by gender . By race . Abrams mmhmm. Whitaker what do you think the impact of that is going to be . Abrams when we started casting the movie, it felt incredibly important to me that the movie look like the world in which this movie is being released. Whitaker abrams didnt just direct the movie; he wrote it with lawrence kasdan, who wrote two of the original star wars with lucas. Abrams knew from the start he would tell a story that blended the new with the old. Taking his cue from the first trilogy, he made authenticity paramount, shooting in farflung locales, like this desert in abu dhabi. The sets were built from scratch; the explosions were real. Were there times when you stepped back from being the director and you were just the fan on the set . Abrams it was very hard to be in the 125degree heat in abu dhabi with actual storm troopers running through this village that we had built, and not have moments constantly of holy. What the. . You know, i cant believe im here. It was constantly happening, and i had to suppress that and say, yep, okay, lets do it, and, like, put that away, because the job was not to be a wideeyed fan boy. The job was to be the director of the movie. Energy and action whitaker as the director, he managed a cast and crew of almost 1,000. He set limits on Computer Generated imagery. Most of abrams creatures, like the new droid bb8, were crafted by hand, including his own. Abrams we knew we had to have a hero droid that was not a familiar one. Whitaker and you came up with a concept, like, by sketching it out . Abrams i drew the dumbest little thing. I just. I drew Something Like. Like this. Whitaker he gave his sketch to the creature department, a group of about 100 artists and designers. They made a puppet. Abrams and the puppeteer came out with bb8, and he was moving around. And it was, like oh, my god, it lives. Rey where do you come from . Whitaker we watched as abrams worked on a scene where the droid meets rey for the first time. Abrams maybe we could connect them so its not so separate. Mmhmm. Whitaker so hes going to fit the pantheon r2d2, c3po. Now, bb8. Abrams from your mouth, sir. From your mouth, sir. I dont. I. I hope so. Whitaker only a handful of people have seen the finished film. One of them is abrams wife of 19 years, katie mcgrath. They have three children, a Charitable Foundation she oversees, and a harry met sally rapport. Katie mcgrath i love the movie. I really love the movie. And im sort of picky, and im a little, you know. Abrams brutally. Brutally honest. Mcgrath im. Im honest. And at the end of the day, its a movie. You know, this is not curing cancer. This is not eradicating poverty. This is. This is making a movie, right . Right . Thats what you believe, right . Abrams im sorry, she lost me after, this is just a movie. I was like. Whitaker Jeffrey Jacob abrams grew up in hollywoods backyard, not far from the big studios. But when he took a tour of a movie back lot at age eight, he knew hed found his calling. What in particular drew you to it . Abrams i think the thing that was so cool is the whole thing felt like a magic trick, that it was. It was every aspect of illusion, of creating something that seemed like it was actual. Actually happening and real. Whitaker he picked up the familys home movie camera and tried his own sleight of hand. Now, we seek revenge whitaker he admits his earliest works werent that good. But he got better. He won a teen Film Festival and got written up in the los angeles times. Thats him in the middle. The article caught the eye of Steven Spielberg. He reached out to the young filmmaker, who reminded him of himself. Today, spielberg is abrams friend, collaborator, and a big fan. What first struck you about him . Steven spielberg he just reminded me of a cartoon character that was so full of Magnetic Energy and ideas coming out of him, sometimes just, like, sparks flying in all directions. He was just absolutely, deliriously, madly in love with the film business and with making movies. Whitaker the kid in abrams is on display at bad robot, his santa monica production company. He says this quirky place is a grownup version of his childhood bedroom with toys, an art area, and a place for special effects. Here, about 90 employees churn out a constant stream of movies, tv shows, video games, and apps. Abrams stage manages it all. Hes kind of, like, all over the place. Is it difficult . Mcgrath i dont even try. It can give you a bit of a complex if. That you dont have enough hobbies in your life, but he. Whitaker youre. Youre not doing enough. Mcgrath no, no. And im doing plenty, by the way. But this is a whole other ballgame. You know, he. Abrams im right here, guys. Mcgrath i know. This is so weird. Abrams bill, its like sixth sense. Bill, katie. Whitaker but its good energy. Mcgrath no, its great energy, actually. Whitaker he sold his first screenplay in college. He went on to write or cowrite five more movies, including the blockbuster armageddon. He made several tv shows. The cult hit lost, about plane crash survivors on a mysterious island, won him two emmys. Youre going to be okay, do you understand me . Abrams cut. That was awesome whitaker after that, his rousing remakes of flagging franchises Mission Impossible and star trek grossed more than 1 billion worldwide and earned abrams the reputation as the remake king. He found himself in a financially lucrative but creative rut. He decided to move on from sequels. Then, fate in the form of a conversation between Steven Spielberg and star wars producer Kathy Kennedy changed his destiny. Spielberg and i just said, kathy, theres only one director that really should undertake this daunting, epic task, and thats j. J. Abrams. Whitaker his daunting task to justify disneys 4 billion investment, plus the estimated 200 million it cost to make the movie. Wall street will be disappointed if it doesnt bring in more than one and a half billion dollars. Whats going on in his head right now . Spielberg oh, j. J. Is terrified. Theres a lot of pressure on j. J. To start paying disney back for, you know, the franchise they bought from. From george lucas. Abrams you just know that there will be people, no matter what you do, that will have issues with some aspect. You just know that there is some number that is being thrown out there that will not be hit. You just know. Whitaker fans have snapped up more than 50 million in advance tickets. In hollywood, they started lining up outside the theater a week ago. The force seems to be with abrams. Mcgrath hes got a long way to go, still, for what hes potentially able to do, in my opinion. Abrams thank you. Whitaker you think hes got another gear in his filmmaking . Mcgrath i hope so. You better. Were running out of sequels. Right, babe . Come on. Isnt. Thats enough what do you do after star wars . Whitaker whether the force Awakens Soars or disappoints, j. J. Abrams is ready for this allconsuming threeyear rocket ride to be over. Abrams i said to someone recently, its like ive had the greatest. In this movie, ive had the. The greatest roommate ever for too long. Like, its just time for him to move out. He just. He needs to get his own place, and i just need to figure out, you know, whats next. How does the new star wars begin . John williams records the music for the opening scene. On 60 minutes overtime.

In terms of global popularity, glamour and speed, it is considered the pinnacle of motor sports. Most americans havent heard of its biggest star. His name is Lewis Hamilton.

But if you do like speed, buckle up, because youre about to experience the indescribable rush of driving one of the fastest race cars on the planet. Lewis hamilton nothing can really prepare you for when you get in the formula one car. Knowing that youre driving a multimillion dollar car, and if you crash it, its going to cost a lot of money and they might not give you another chance, is scary. Rose it is said that youre at one with the car. Hamilton yeah. Its like youre strapped to a rocket. I mean, its like, how do you control this rocket . Its like a raging bull. Its wild. Its sexy. Its fast. Rose Lewis Hamilton was the fastest in 2008, when he clinched his first World Championship at the brazilian grand prix. You will never see a more dramatic conclusion to any motor race.

Rose you want to crush everyone. Hamilton i do. Rose at the italian grand prix last september, he did just that as the ferrari faithful and the cream of European Society looked on. Hamilton in his mercedes was the ultimate driving machine, winning the pole position, recording the fastest lap, and leading the race from start to finish. Congratulations, lewis. Rose in racing, thats called a grand slam. When it was over, hamilton was so relaxed, it was as if he had just driven around the block. So, how does it feel, this one . Hamilton this weekend is the best ive ever had. Ive never been quickest in every session and all qualifying sessions and the race. Ive never, ever done that. Rose worldwide, formula one generated more than 2 billion last season, but remains a niche sport in the united states. F1 executives hope hamilton can change that.

Rose youre a role model . Hamilton i hope so. Rose you are, in fact, the face of formula one. Youre the guy. So, all of a sudden, formula one looks to you and says, you know. Hamilton we need you. Rose we need you. laughter they need you. Hamilton well, i think we need each other. Rose no race car driver becomes a champion without a team. And a fast car. We went to mercedes f1 headquarters in england to see the one hamilton drove last season. You said the top speed of this one is what . Hamilton 200. 220, 230. Rose how does that compare to indy or nascar . Hamilton well, this car will kill both of those cars. Rose kill them . Hamilton kill them. The speed in which we get to. To a 100 miles an hour is probably similar to. To an indy car. But its what this car does through a corner. Its like a fighter jet on wheels. Rose the aerodynamic wings of the car allow it to hug the ground and take corners at over 100 miles an hour. Hamilton says the forces can be five times his body weight, or five gs. He drives to the limit, and sometimes beyond, like when he blew a tire qualifying for the 2007 european grand prix. Whats it like to hit the wall . Hamilton the Journey Towards it is kind of exciting. Rose really . What makes it exciting . Hamilton because you lose control. Rose and yet, theres an exhilaration when its out of control for you. Hamilton true, yeah. I. I cant really explain that. Rose perhaps its because hamilton has never been seriously hurt in a crash. A generation ago, one or more drivers could die each season, like his hero, ayrton senna. Its considerably safer today. Hamilton it is. Formula one was a very dangerous sport. It still is dangerous, but the danger factor is also the exciting part. Rose it wasnt possible to drive in hamiltons race car, so we borrowed the fastest ride we could find. This is the fastest mercedes . Hamilton yeah. laughs rose nine miles from the teams base is silverstone, home of the british grand prix. We drove straight onto the same track where hamilton has won three times. What are we at now, about 100 . Hamilton doing 140 right now. Rose 140 . Im on one of the great race tracks in the world with the greatest driver in the world. How good is that . Hamilton this is good fun. Rose and my heart is somewhere up around my ears. Unbelievable, lewis. But tell me about driving. Talk to me about what youre doing. Hamilton i know that i have to hit the curve right here, so theres. Theres an ideal apex. Rose see there, thats not the way i wouldve anticipated hitting the curve. Hamilton you press the music . Rose laughs i did. I hit. Oh, boy, that was my heart. Races are won and lost in the turns. Drivers are looking for the most efficient angle or line through each one. Hamilton so what youre trying to do when youre driving a racecar, you notice theres lines im taking. So right now, the next one is the left. So im going to be as far over to the right as possible. Rose so its going to be a left. So youre going to be as far as you can to the right . Hamilton yeah. And basically, you want to make. You want to turn as little as possible. brakes squeal rose you want to turn as little as possible . Hamilton yeah. Rose yeah. Rose do they make too much of this idea that great drivers can feel it throughout their body . Hamilton yeah. I can feel it, but i know my. I know my boundaries. I know the limits to the car. Rose before Lewis Hamilton was old enough to drive, he was already a racing prodigy. He got his first Remote Control car at age five. Not long after, he beat the British National champion on a bbc childrens show called blue peter. And we have a winner who won the race . Lewis, well done rose and then he got a secondhand gokart for christmas from his father, Anthony Hamilton. Anthony hamilton its quite a unique story. Because normally, racing drivers come from a long line of, you know, previous successful sports people. But here we were, just a normal family. All of a sudden, weve got this young, precocious talent. And not only that, you know, were the only black family on the grid. Not only that, lesser equipment to others. Rose six years old, and he said, i want to be a formula one racer. Anthony hamilton yeah. Thats all he ever said till he got there. Rose while other kids played, young lewis drove. In only his second year racing gokarts, hamilton became the champion of britain. Anthony hamilton and its like, hang on. Lewis can become a british karting champion with his father as mechanic, then the world is his oyster. Rose and what did you know about racing . Anthony hamilton absolutely nothing. Rose Anthony Hamilton had to teach himself racing so he could then teach his son. He worked as a computer manager for the railroad, but he took on odd jobs to finance lewis dream. Father and son spent hundreds of hours here at the rye house kart track in a suburb north of london. What does rye house mean to you . Lewis hamilton rye house was my school. Rose and the most important lesson was when to brake. You helped him appreciate the benefits of braking later. Anthony hamilton yes. Rose that happened on this track. Anthony hamilton yes, absolutely, absolutely. That very corner over there. Rose yes. Anthony hamilton . Right on the bend. He learned to brake later, harder, and keep the speed on the gokart. Lewis hamilton the best drivers were braking here, and he would make me brake later than them. Rose and that contributed to your dominance . Lewis hamilton yes. And it still does today. Rose young Lewis Hamilton was so dominant, he got his first pro contract at 13. Despite the success as the only black family in the sport, the hamiltons did not always feel welcome at the track. Lewis hamilton yeah, i mean, i had parents come to me, other drivers parents would come up to me and be sort of, you dont belong here. Go back to wherever you came from. Rose so what does it say about you that you survived all that and became the World Champion . Lewis hamilton my dad would always say, do your talking on the track. So i get on the track and id drive the wheels off the car. Rose a few years after the hamiltons won their first World Championship in formula one, the wheels came off their relationship. Lewis no longer wanted his father to be his manager. Lewis hamilton so it was a point where i was like, dad, i just want you to be my dad. And that was incredibly hard for him to take, and it was hard for me to. To be able to do it. It had to be a hard break at the time. Rose and how hard was it for him to take it . Lewis hamilton that bridged a gap between us that was, like, the grand canyon. Rose did it affect your racing . Lewis hamilton absolutely. Yeah. Rose disappointing results mounted, as did crashes, like this one in the 2011 belgian grand prix. Hamiltons father was convinced his absence was a factor. Anthony hamilton i couldnt understand it. What do you mean you dont need me . So that hit me pretty hard. But it was. It was probably the best thing, you know. Hes not a boy anymore. He wasnt a kid anymore. He was a formula one World Champion. Rose what would you do different . Anthony hamilton my desire for him to be so successful took me over from being the father to more manager. And thats probably the thing i would. Rose you wish youd stayed more father. Anthony hamilton yeah. But if id have stayed the father, i. He probably wouldnt have been as successful. Rose four years after their professional split, Lewis Hamilton won his second World Championship in abu dhabi. Prince harry congratulated him over the radio. Prince harry lewis, well done. Youre an absolute legend. Rose and waiting in the garage was Anthony Hamilton. No longer a manager, now just a proud dad. Lewis hamilton what he did for me, i can never pay him back. The only thing i can do is make sure that every time im in the car today with the opportunity that hes helped create get and give me, ive got to grab it with both hands and never take it for granted. How good does that sound, lewis three times World Champion . Lewis hamilton, its the greatest moment of my life. Rose hamilton clinched his third World Championship this past october in austin, texas, at the u. S. Grand prix. Now managing himself, he claims to be the happiest hes ever been. We believed him, not because of something he said, but because of the way he drove. Lewis hamilton the way i drive, the way i handle a car is an expression of my inner feelings. laughter rose oh, boy. I hope youre enjoying this as much as i am. Lewis hamilton i have the best job in the world. I love this. Rose go, man, go. This cbs sports update is brought to you by ford. Im james brown with scores from nfl today.
