Hamilton no longer managed by father - Formula 1 news - GPUpdate.net

He says several times "I am 25 now and my own man." WTF???

But if you have to say it, then you are not as mature as you think you are.

Honestly, I would prefer not having my dad as my manager. I would much rather have a father like Button's where he's at every race watching and supporting like a parent. I would be grateful for what Hamilton's father has done to help him, but it would just seem odd to me having a parent be your manager as well.

I think he wants to party and doesn't want his Dad watching his every move.

It's natural. But the way he handled it - so close to the season - was bad IMHO.
