Marc Hynes, a trusted ally of Lewis Hamilton since Britain’s junior series racing days, once played a pivotal role in managing the seven-time world champion’s business ventures, including his beloved Project 44. However, he parted ways in 2021, only to be back with Hamilton to assist him in “racing activities” ahead of the 2024 F1 season.
Hynes is not only Hamilton’s trusted friend, but he also managed both his business affairs and functioned as the CEO of Project 44. Despite their long-standing partnership, they parted ways in 2021 on healthy terms since Hynes intended to pursue other motorsport opportunities. Though the two headed in different directions professionally, their friendship remained unaffected.
Now though, it is reported that Hynes will be rejoining Hamilton’s endeavors, but this time, his role will be concentrated on “racing activities. A spokesperson from Hamilton’s team told The Telegraph:
“Lewis is looking forward to the beginning of the new Formula One season and he will be working with Marc Hynes, his long-term friend and former colleague who will be providing his expertise to assist Lewis on the track.
“Marc will be solely focused on racing activities and supporting Lewis’s commitment to bringing the fight back to the top spot.
Consequently, Hamilton has more reasons to be happy as Mercedes develops the 2024 title contender, which according to team boss Toto Wolff, “feels like a car for the first time in two years.”
