Formula One supremo Bernie Ecclestone believes 2008 world champion Lewis Hamilton is now unsure whether to leave McLaren or join Mercedes

"I don't think he knows what he will do," Ecclestone told ESPN.

"These last couple of races he has been doing very well. Before that, why he was upset I don't know, but he was definitely going to move no matter what.

Hamilton was initially offered a pay cut of a third on his Â£10million-per-year ($16.2 million) deal by McLaren, putting him on a par with teammate Jenson Button.

That was understood to be McLaren's final offer, however, it has now been suggested the team have increased that by a further Â£2million ($3.2million).
