Hamilton not required by prosecutors
De la Rosa still to speak

Oct.11 (GMM) Contrary to reports on Wednesday, Lewis Hamilton will not be called up by Italian prosecutors in the near future.

The sports daily La Gazzetta dello Sport had suggested that, following Fernando Alonso's two-hour interview in Modena this week, his McLaren teammates may also be asked to contribute to the criminal investigation as witnesses.

The German newspaper Bild, however, cites a McLaren spokesperson as clarifying that Hamilton will not be involved in the espionage case in Italy.

McLaren test driver Pedro de la Rosa, however, is likely to be called as a witness by Modena magistrate Giuseppe Tibis, but only after the conclusion of the 2007 season next weekend in Brazil, Bild reported.
