Lewis Hamilton has already indicated several times that he can continue in Formula 1. Hamilton has even indicated before that he may be able to continue for another three years in the sport. Although Hamilton denied that the contract negotiations with Mercedes had begun, team boss Toto Wolff hopes that it will come soon.

"We're having good talks and I'm pretty sure we'll be able to sign a contract soon," Wolff said to Canal +. Hamilton has been untouchable in the world of Formula 1 for years. Mercedes, despite the age of their top driver, can still see with glowing eyes how Hamilton is performing at top level.

Ideal teammate?

In addition, Wolff Valtteri sees Bottas as Hamilton's ideal team mate. He won the first race of the year and "the difference with the situation we had with Nico (Rosberg) and Lewis is that we now have a good atmosphere". Wolff especially emphasizes the good cooperation between Bottas and Hamilton with regard to Hamilton and Rosberg: "We do not have that suspicion that existed between the other two".
