Lewis Hamilton in Mercedes they have repeatedly pointed out that due to the overload of this season, discussions on a new contract have not yet begun. After winning the race VN Emilija Romanje in Imola, it is Hamilton told the media that there was no guarantee that he would continue racing next year.

When they said this Hamilton statement Wolff, he said: “I think if I were to decide to leave Formula 1, which I don’t think is going to happen and I hope it won’t happen, I think we’re going to have a pretty unusual racing market out there. I think it was a moment and emotions, we are all very happy and also very tired. It's exactly the same for me." Wolff led the team Mercedes through the entire title-winning phase, and is now set for the season 2021 changed his position. “I think we go with Lewis together in a way that we have a symbiosis in the team and that it matters where our heart and our mindset is for next year."

Toto Wolff emphasized once again that his role could be different in the future, so he is also playing with the idea of ​​a successor, and he would dedicate himself more to the family.

"But I said this is my team. I am a very proud co-owner of Mercedes and I am not going anywhere. My role may change in the future and that’s something he asked and I don’t think anything is safe. Like Niki Lauda in the ’70s, when he could wake up one morning on the track and say he wasn’t having fun anymore. I think this can happen to anyone. But we want to continue this journey, because we are not done yet. Lewis, me and the whole team know we’re not done yet. In my case, it’s pretty clear. You need to place the pen on the document at the right time. I focused on bringing both addresses home first, as it wasn’t pleasant to spend days with lawyers when you’re focused on what’s going on on the track,”He says of his condition Wolff.

For Lewis Hamilton, however, he says he will also remain in Formula 2021 in the 1 season, as soon as he also wins the racing championship title, they sit down at the table and start negotiations.

"Lewis and I are very similar here. It just didn’t seem right to me to sit down at a table before the championship was over. There will come a time when the racers' championship will also be decided and we will have a few months before the first race of the new season in Australia is scheduled,”He explains Wolff primer Hamilton.
