Four-time world champion has a valid contract with Ferrari by the end of the year, but there are quite a few naughty rumorsto Nemec rejected the one-year contract and that the opinions on duration of the new contract. The same goes for cries, which would be significantly lower.

If both sides cannot agree during the negotiations, they would Marc Surer wanted to Hag pri Mercedes replaced Valtteria Bottas, whose contract also expires at the end of the year. “Why not Mercedes? I don't know if Lewis Hamilton would accept him as a teammate, but that would be great,”The Swiss told colleagues from Speed ​​Week. In German manufacturer would have a German in the car again.

Marc Surer believes that if Sebastian Vettel does not stay at Ferrari and if he wants to win another title, he will not go to McLaren, but rather to Mercedes.

"When Nico Rosberg retired, it was very bad news for the company," so Surer. "Ferrari knows exactly where it wants to go, so they have an advantage in negotiations. Vettel has a very lucrative contract at the time. Clearly, he will have to accept a lower salary. This is not about a lack of respect, but about a high level of poker." If Hag eventually leave Ferrariwhereas no new agreement could be reached, Surer he thinks his next stop wouldn’t be McLaren.

Perhaps, however, Vettel could succeed Hamilton instead of Bottas at Mercedes, who is demanding an astronomical amount to extend his contract with the Silver Arrows despite the crisis.

Swiss explain: “If he wants to win the world title, he will not move to Woking to McLaren. It would take too long there, especially since the new rules have been moved. Otherwise, they will progress in the engine, as they will now have Mercedes, but I don't think they will fight for victories next year, let alone for the title,”He concluded Surer.
