Toto Wolff would like Lewis Hamilton to extend his contract with Mercedes beyond the end of 2020. It is thought that talks about his future will take place after this season ends. Many think that Hamilton could move to Ferrari but Wolff thinks that there is no reason for him to do that. 

"As long as we can provide Lewis with a winning car, Lewis has no reason to consider switching to another team," said Wolff to The Sun. "We also have no reason to look elsewhere."

"What we said to Lewis is that we want to close the season at a high level, breathe for a moment and then discuss what will happen in 2021. 

"As Ferrari will undoubtedly also look at the options they have. They have a good line-up at the moment, but it does occasionally cause some friction, so they will also think of:" What do we want in 2021?"

Hamilton has had an incredibly successful time at Mercedes and as long as he keeps winning he will have no reason to leave the team.
