Lewis Hamilton and Mercedes are a long way apart in their stances over a new contract, it has been claimed.
Hamilton’s current deal is due to expire at the end of the Formula One season and discussions over a new contract have stalled. Mirror Sport understands that the seven-time champion wants to stay with the Silver Arrows but the details are proving difficult to iron out.
Mercedes chief Toto Wolff has made it clear that he also wants Hamilton to stay and has frequently hinted that an announcement will be made soon. But that has not happened and the Daily Mail says that there are ‘widely contrasting views’ about the next contract.
