Lewis Hamilton was the one who decided to end his long-time partnership with physio Angela Cullen, Toto Wolff has revealed.
It was announced on Friday that Hamilton will no longer be able to count on the in-person support of Cullen on race weekends. She had worked as his physiotherapist, personal assistant and trusted confidant for seven years, but the two have now split.
Both posted emotional messages on social media about the end of their partnership which painted a picture of a mutual decision. But Mercedes team principal Wolff has strongly hinted that it was Hamilton who decided that a change was needed.
