Valtteri Bottas says there is no ulterior motive behind his decision to become more involved in his own management after a minor reshuffle of hꦆis personal team.

The Finn, a podium winner this yeaꦚr in Canada, is yet to determine where he will be racing in 2017, though many predic♏t he will remain with Williams.

C🃏oming a year after failing to land a potential drive at Ferrari, though Bottas has been mentioned as a possible Kimi Raikkonen replacement once more, he maintains he simply wants more say in the way his future i🧔s determined.

"There are no changes in my management, everything is still the same, but I'm going to be taking a b💝it more care of some things. There's nothing more to add, really, there's no drama, no story behind it, it's just I'm keen to be a bit more involved, that's all.

"For sure I still have my management but I'm quite keen to be a bit more involved. I think this is t💙he way to go but it's not a massive changꦬe

"t would be nice to know as early as possible because if you carry on through the sum𝔉mer it doesn't help. It would be ꦯnice to know as early as possible but sometimes it's not possible, so we need to go with the time and see how it ends up."
