The 23-year-old grand prix star is now the proud owner of the posh Grenada Grand Beach Resort. And he has been given beachfront land worth £10million by the Grenadan government in return for promoting the island, where his grandad Davidson lives. Hamilton will also become the face of the Caribbean island's tourism drive for the next four years. The land deal caused a stir on the island, where the beachfront is rented to the rich by the government. But lawmakers announced yesterday it was all "above board". Former PM Keith Mitchell said Hamilton's image would bring in badly needed revenue. Hamilton is expected to earn £75million over the next five years. In February, the F1 wizard was guest of honour at Grenada's independence day celebrations. And he reportedly flew Pussycat Dolls singer Nicole Scherzinger to the Caribbean paradise in a private jet after his victory in Monaco in May.
