Damon Hill could be out of the Williams team for next season's Formula One championship according to a report in the specialist magazine Autosport.

Frank Williams is believed to have reached agreement with German driver Heinz-Harald Frentzen, according to a source close to the team who is quoted as saying: "I know that a deal with Frentzen has already happened. I think it is wrong a guy like Hill goes in there and gives his all and then his feelings, his career and emotions are treated in this way."

But both the Williams team and Michael Breen, Hill's manager, have denied the rumours insisting Hill will not be moved out. Hill, whose contract ends this year, is reportedly aiming to arrange talks about his future ahead of this Sunday's German Grand Prix at Hockenheim.
