When a driver moves teams, it is usually for one of three reasons:
1) Animosity within the team
2) The prospect of a more competitive car
3) More money
And in the case of Lewis Hamilton’s recent move to Mercedes from McLaren, the latter seems the obvious choice if you believe the stories.
However…
Perhaps there is more to Hamilton’s move then meets the eye. With regulations set to change once again for 2013, his decision could have more depth than simply money.
