The Next Lewis Hamilton

Lewis Hamilton, look in the mirror ... and you may see Leonardo Panayiotou on your tail.
The go-karting prodigy has just secured £15,000 in sponsorship - aged just four.
And Leonardo trains at the circuit where Formula One star Lewis made his go-kart debut as an eight-year-old.
Leonardo hits speeds of more than 50mph in a 60cc machine and practises for up to 15 hours a week at the Rye House Kart Raceway in Hoddesdon, Herts.

Course manager Steve Cutting said: "He is the most outstanding driver I've seen for his age. From his first day he had no fear and could handle speed. He's set for an incredible career and has years on Lewis!"
Leonardo, of Cheshunt, Herts, is not allowed to compete until he is eight but his timed laps beat drivers three or four times his age.
Dad Jason, 34, said: "He lives and breathes racing. He was born to drive."
