TAG Heuer backs Lewis Hamilton

McLaren-Mercedes Benz protege Lewis Hamilton has been named as one of the TAG Heuer ambassadors alongside the likes of David Coulthard, Kimi Raikkonen, Tiger Woods, Marion Jones, Sarah Fisher and, most recently, French CART driver Sebastien Bourdais.

Hamilton, who is 18, is currently competing in the British Formula Renault series but has been earmarked by McLaren since 1998 as being a star in the making.
