Formula One enfant terrible Lewis Hamilton is again in the spotlight this week as fevered speculation over his future dominates the build-up to the Singapore Grand Prix. The 27-year-old Briton lies second in the standings behind Ferrari&rsquo;s Fernando Alonso, after a consummate drive in Italy brought his third win of the season and renewed hope of a second world title. <img alt="" src="http://images.mid-day.com/2012/sep/ham.jpg" style="width: 400px; height: 339px; " /> Chilled out: McLaren&rsquo;s Lewis Hamilton of Britain during a promotional event in Singapore on Wednesday. Pic/AFP Formula One is embarking on a four-stop Asian swing, from Singapore&rsquo;s glittering, skyscraper-studded night race, to Japan, South Korea and India, which may settle this year&rsquo;s unpredictable title race. But the precocious Hamilton&rsquo;s off-track affairs are dominating headlines after he admitted his future was undecided at long-term employer McLaren, and a reported cooling of relations with teammate Jenson Button. The 2008 world champion brought a sharp rebuke from Button after he tweeted sensitive team information during this month&rsquo;s Belgian Grand Prix. His muted victory celebrations in Italy were widely noted. In the run-up to Singapore, the 14th of 20 races, Hamilton stressed he was &ldquo;happy with McLaren&rdquo; &mdash; but said he had not committed to any team next season, when he is out of contract. Mercedes are courting his signature. &ldquo;No, I haven&rsquo;t committed to any team as yet. I don&rsquo;t have a timeline either,&rdquo; Hamilton said, at a promotional event in Mumbai. &ldquo;I won my first world championship with McLaren and I am happy with their background, the people and environment there,&rdquo; he added. It is the latest in a series of distractions for Hamilton, whose 2011 season was affected by problems with his girlfriend, Pussycat Dolls singer Nicole Scherzinger, and who lost his aunt to cancer last month.
