Lewis HamiltonLewis Hamilton has revealed that he made a deal with McLaren boss Ron Dennis to keep some of the trophies he has won for himself.

The team usually keep all the trophies won by their drivers, but the new world champion has made an agreement with Dennis to keep some of the silverware for himself.

"They do keep all the trophies and I'm respectful of that," Hamilton said at Mercedes-Benz Stars & Cars event in Stuttgart this weekend.

"But I made a deal with Ron that I would get to keep the ones from my first podium finish, my first win, my first Monaco win and my first championship, so I'm happy with that."
