Nicole Scherzinger and Lewis Hamilton are back together, the racing driver has confirmed.

In January, the 25-year-old Formula 1 star and the former Pussycat Doll, 31, said they were splitting to concentrate on their careers - but the pair, who vowed at the time to remain friends, are an item once again, after finding a happy compromise with their work life balance.

Lewis said: "Things are good. She's working really hard on her album and on Dancing With The Stars and I can't wait to see how well she does with that and hopefully I can get over and support her."

He added: "She's supporting me with my racing so we're focusing on our careers and we're doing our best to stay in touch and keep strong."

However, Lewis said there was "no truth" in rumours of marriage.

The McLaren driver, who begins this season's Formula 1 campaign at the weekend in Bahrain, confessed he was in the best physical shape of his career, and his ultra-fit training partner Nicole should receive some of the credit.

"We go to the gym together quite often and she goes running with me," he said. "She does her own programme and I do mine and it's pretty cool."

He added: "We try not to compete on many things because she can keep up with pretty much anything."

Lewis was speaking at the launch of his new alternate reality game from Reebok, secretlewis.com.
