Lewis Hamilton has reportedly ended his partnership with his long-time professional associate ahead of the 2026 Formula 1 season. This development follows sightings of the seven-time world champion with Kim Kardashian in both the Cotswolds and Paris recently, sparking rumors of a romantic involvement between the two.
According to reports, Marc Hynes, 47, has decided to leave his role working closely with Hamilton to join the newly formed F1 team, Cadillac. Hynes previously served as the chief executive of Project 44, Hamilton’s management company, from 2015 to 2021, before reuniting with Hamilton last year to manage his racing logistics at Ferrari.
The separation between Hamilton and Hynes is described as amicable, as part of a broader restructuring within Hamilton’s team as they gear up for the upcoming F1 season. Recent changes also include Ferrari announcing the replacement of Riccardo Adami as Hamilton’s race engineer with Cedric Michel-Grosjean.
Despite a challenging first season with Ferrari, Hamilton expressed optimism after setting the fastest lap during testing in Barcelona. Fans are eagerly anticipating his performance in the upcoming season as the F1 landscape undergoes significant changes in 2026.
Off the track, speculations about Hamilton’s relationship with Kardashian continue to swirl, with reports describing them as ‘inseparable’ and strategically avoiding public appearances. They have been seen coordinating their schedules to spend quality time together amidst their busy work commitments.
