Hamilton enters frame for '07 McLaren seat
Lewis Hamilton's dominance of GP2 over the weekend has reportedly made Ron think a bit more seriously about adding him to the shortlist for the second McLaren seat.
He says they aim to have the best drivers available and Lewis has only added to those options (or something like that) If a younger driver really excels then why shouldn't he step straight into a top seat... I know traditionally, it hardly ever happens but if he continues to sweep up this year then it would be daft to waste him in an uncompetitive car when he could do a good job straight away? If he doesn't get a McLaren race drive what are the other racing options open to him that will allow Ron to hang onto him rather than let him go on a contract he's not in control of elsewhere? |
