Technical head Paddy Lowe could be about to follow newly-retired Formula One world champion Nico Rosberg out of the door at dominant Mercedes.

The motorsport.com website reported multiple sources “with good knowledge of the situation” indicating that Lowe, who has helped Mercedes win three successive constructors’ titles, was set to join rivals Williams.

Mercedes, who were rocked by Rosberg’s retirement announcement only five days after he won the title at the end of last month in Abu Dhabi, had no comment on rumours about Lowe that have been rife since September.
