The Mercedes driver has not even started the negotiations to extend his F1 deal which currentl🍎y expires at the end of this year, i🧸t is claimed.

“Stories claiming Hamilton is closing in on a £60m-per-year deal bankrolled by INEOS boss Sir Jim Ratcliffe, a one-third owner of the Mercedes F1 team, are uꦑnderstood by Sky Sports to be without foundation,” the UK F1 broadcaster reported.

Hamilton has sat at No1 in the list of 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:F1 driver salaries for so🙈me time and that is expected to continue when his new deal is formalised.

Now 38, he enters 2023 aiming for the all-time record eighth championship but must hope that his team provides him with the machinery needed to battle 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Max Verstappen.

"We are so aligne🐲d,” Toto Wolff, the💙 Mercedes team principal, said about his star driver’s contract talks. 

“It's just a matte😼r of him physically being back in Europe, sticking our heads together, wrestling a bit, and then leaving the room with white smoke after a few hours."

Hamilton has spent the꧟ offseason in Antarctica and Los 🌌Angeles.
