A new manager has stepped in to handle the career of 2008 Formula 1 World Champion, McLaren driver Lewis Hamilton.
After years spent alongside his father Anthony, Lewis Hamilton will now be managed by Simon Fuller's XIX Entertainment company.
XIX also handles the famous British footballer David Beckham, his Spice Girl wife Victoria, tennis star Andy Murray and actor Sir Michael Caine.
His father Anthony was an instrumental figure in guiding Lewis into F1 and to the world title.
The two split at the beginning of last year and Hamilton has recently said that after a rocky period the two are now back on better terms.
In a statement, the 26-year-old McLaren driver said Fuller and his team "shared my ambitions for the longer term".
