Lewis Hamilton is incredibly grateful and will never forget the people who helped lay the foundations for his successful career in F1, claims former McLaren chief Ron Dennis.
Hamilton broke onto the F1 world with McLaren in 2007 after emerging as one of the world's top young racing talents.
The Briton won his first World Drivers' Championship a year later.
Hamilton has gone on to secure five more titles since leaving McLaren for Mercedes ahead of the 2013 F1 campaign.
"
Lewis has matured over the years," Dennis told Sky Sports News. "It's inevitable, because it comes with age. What I like about him is he doesn't forget.
"Our relationship was very much positioned as father and son, surrogate father and son. And I don't think Anthony would ever be uncomfortable with that [description]. And I don't always agree with some of the things that he says or some of the things he does. But I can know one thing; he will never, ever not appreciate the help that he received from certain people, his father and most definitely myself.
"But, as I said, there's a few things and things he's done that I don't completely approve of. I'm not a big fan of tattoos but, whatever the outcome, I'm sure he will never forget."
