Despite Wolff’s suggestion that a deal could be final🔯i🦩sed ahead of this weekend’s race, there has been no further news.
And 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:no announcement about Hamilton’s future will be made this week, according t൩o Sky Sports F1’s David Croft.
While Hamilton refused to div🥀ulge too much information, he did confirm progress has bee🦄n made over a new deal.
“It’s the same as the previous two r🍸aces, there’s not really anything to add at the moment,” Hamilton said. “But as soon as I have something, I’ll let you know.”
When questioned about Wolff’s remark that “we are talking more days than weeks” before his future is resolved, Hamilton responded: “We had a good meeting recently. 𝔍They are very complex, contracts, so it’s not just a simple driving contract.”

Hamilton was then ask﷽ed if the reason for his p🌜rotracted negotiations was down to him ironing out terms for a post-racing ambassador role with Mercedes.
“I can’t tell you what I’m trying to p🌜u♌t in my contract,” he replied with a grin.
And what about Hamilton’s push for diversity and inclusion♕?
"We already covered a lot 👍of that already in the previous contract,” he explained. “We have an amazing group of people in the factory that are really focused on Ignite.
"There has been huge progress within our team since we first had serious conversations♓. With Mission 44 I'm really proud of where we have got it to. We are now funding 25 or 26 different organisations out there.
"Starting to really have an impact and hopefully we will ♑have a fresher chain coming through with more diversity."

The 38-year-old stre💝ssed ﷺthere is no need to rush his contract negotiations and reiterated that he has no plans to quit F1 any time soon.
“Right now 🌊I’m focused mostly on planning to be here, racing for still a decent chunk of time," Hamilton insisted.
“You’✃ve got to explore all avenues in the sense of how you can continue to e♕xpand your partnership with such a great organisation.
“It’s not as easy as just saying ‘go ahead’ - and I don’t have to be in a rush.”&🍷nbsp;
Hamilton’s comment about “racing for a decent chunk of time” was particularly intriguing in light of a 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史🅠:report that emergeꦫd in The Daily Mail later on Thursday night.
According to the B�ꦓ�ritish newspaper, Hamilton has demanded a five-year contract worth £250m to re-sign for Mercedes.
The contract saga will no doubt continue to �✅�be the talk of the F1 paddock for the rest of the weekend in Montreal.
