Dec.15 (GMM) Speculation about Lewis Hamilton’s long-term future has intensified after it emerged that his father and former manager, Anthony Hamilton, has quietly registered a new company in the UK.
According to UK corporate records, Hamilton Sr has set up a business called HybridV10, alongside associated trademarks including Hybrid World Series, Hybrid World Commission, Hybrid Grand Prix and HybridV10 World Motorsport Festival.
The activities are listed under television production, advertising and sports-related ventures.
There is no indication that the seven-time world champion is directly involved, but the move has fuelled suggestions that groundwork is being laid for a post-F1 project as Hamilton enters the final year of his Ferrari contract following a horror debut season in red.
Hamilton, 40, has already built a portfolio beyond racing, including film production company Dawn Apollo Films, which recently produced the Hollywood feature F1, and his non-alcoholic tequila brand Almave, alongside his Mission 44 charity.
Speaking after the Abu Dhabi finale, Hamilton admitted he was eager to disconnect. “I can’t wait to get away from all this,” he said.
“At the moment I’m only looking forward to the break. Just disconnecting, not speaking to anyone. No one will be able to get in touch with me this winter.”
Amid reports that Hamilton’s detailed technical dossiers have irritated some within Ferrari, team boss Frederic Vasseur moved to shut that down.
“When I sometimes read in articles that we received reports from the drivers requesting changes, I have to honestly say that some people are a bit naive in this regard,” Vasseur said.
“Because we receive reports from the drivers after every race. It’s nothing unusual for a driver to send the team a report saying, ‘Ok, we need to do this and that.'”
