F1 | Mercedes, Wolff sure: "Hamilton will renew"

He is alone “a question of time” before Lewis Hamilton signs new Mercedes deal, words of Toto Wolff. According to the Manager of the German Scuderia, the relationships between the Englishman and the team are excellent, especially after the last world championship in 2017, which is why there will be no second thoughts regarding the drafting of the new contract. The 33-year-old is linked to the Brackleky stable until the end of this season, but only for a few months an extension offer has been made for another three seasons with a big adjustment on the salary.

"Lewis has become a key pillar within the team and continuing together would be the most logical choice", Wolff said. "Discussions are ongoing, but there is a lot of optimism between the parties. For a new agreement it is only a question of time. We will finalize the final details and affix the signatures."

During the pause he added: “AWe had a good winter. There's always stress when designing a new car, but everything was normal. In general this time of year is always busy."
