Lewis Hamilton loses long-time F1 ally as he announces split with Mercedes coach

Lewis Hamilton will no longer be supported by his long time performance coach and paddock ally Angela Cullen, the Mercedes star has announced.

Cullen has worked with the seven-time world champion for the last seven years. She is regularly spotted by his side and acts not only as a coach, but as a rock for the British racer in the paddock.

But that relationship is about to come to an end. Hamilton announced on Friday through a social media post that he and Cullen will no longer be working together. He posted several photos of them together along with an emotional message.

"For the last seven years, Angela Cullen has been by my side, pushing me to be the best version of myself," he wrote. "I am a stronger athlete and a better person because of her.

"So today I hope you'll join me in wishing her the very best as she takes her next steps to pursue her dreams. Thank you for everything Ang, I can't wait to see what the future has in store for you."
