Red Bull motorsport advisor Helmut Marko has said that Lewis Hamilton is a topic for the team to consider for next season.
Hamilton was linked with a move to Red Bull during the winter after his McLaren appeared well off the pace during testing. The 2008 world champion has since quashed such rumours, although admitting that "I'm going to be in Formula One for some time, and you never know which way the wind will take you."
Hamilton has declared himself pleased with the progress made by McLaren and was second behind Sebastian Vettel in Melbourne. But with Mark Webber only signed up until the end of 2011 and comprehensively beaten by his team-mate Vettel, Marko said the team would have to keep Hamilton in mind.
"First we have to see how the season goes for Mark and what he decides," Marko told Sport Bild. "Definitely with his aggression and his speed, Hamilton must always be a topic. Our philosophy is to have the quickest drivers together in our team."
