Lewis Hamilton has signed a new five-year contract with McLaren.
The deal for Hamilton, 23, who enjoyed a stunning debut year in Formula One last year, runs through until 2012.
Hamilton was pipped to the F1 title in the last race of a season that was marred by his frosty relationship with former team-mate Fernando Alonso.
The British driver led the drivers' championship for much of the season before ultimately finishing second to Ferrari's Kimi Raikkonen.
