Hamilton, return to McLaren in 2015?

The 1 F2015 drivers market is more lively than ever after the announcement of Sebastian Vettel's farewell to Red Bull, destination Ferrari, and Fernando Alonso to Prancing Horse. Although the Spaniard's next team is not yet known but there is still talk of a possible, albeit complicated arrival at McLaren, Lewis Hamilton is also in the running for a seat in the Woking team, powered by official Honda engines from next year .

According to F1 Today, Hamilton visited the McLaren factory three weeks ago to sign a contract to return to driving next season for the team that brought him to his F1 debut. “Lewis was at the factory three weeks ago. He arrived by helicopter, he had about a two hour conversation with management and then he left with a big smile on his face. He signed, I assure you. He hasn't made the seat yet, but it will probably happen in the future” declared a source within the team, who remained anonymous.

As for Alonso, in addition to the rumors about McLaren, there are those about Lotus and a possible sabbatical but the rumors that Hamilton is joining McLaren could allow the Spaniard to join Mercedes. Jenson Button's future still remains an unknown: McLaren seems intent on keeping Kevin Magnussen and the Englishman would have received an offer from Porsche to race in the WEC.
