Motor Racing | Formula One : McLaren says Hamilton to leave, Perez to join


LONDON - Former Formula One champion Lewis Hamilton will leave McLaren and will be replaced by Sauber's Mexican driver Sergio Perez at the start of the 2013 season, McLaren said in a statement Friday.Hamilton is reportedly to move to Mercedes but there was no immediate confirmation.

"It's entirely appropriate that I should take this opportunity to pass on our thanks to Lewis. He wrote a huge chapter of his life and career with us, and was, and always will be, a fine member of an exclusive club: the McLaren world champions' club," team principal Martin Whitmarsh said.
