McLaren's Lewis Hamilton plans to start the Formula One season under new management after a year-long search for the right person to take care of his business affairs.
"Nothing has been signed or fully firmed up," said the 2008 world champion after giving Reuters a breathtaking blast around a wet southern English airfield circuit in a fiery orange McLaren MP4-12C sports car.
"But I'm really hopeful in the next week or so we should hopefully have an announcement... definitely before Australia," he added.
Hamilton, Stewart to swap cars
LONDON: McLaren's 2008 Formula One champion Lewis Hamilton and NASCAR's double title winner Tony Stewart may swap cars later in the year as part of a promotional event for a mutual sponsor.
"It's an event that potentially we will be doing," Hamilton told Reuters, emphasising it was still in the planning
stages.
