I’m guessing a suspension switch would be too much for them to handle at this point (and I would bet they aren’t the only team to make that decision). |

Forbes says Max is on $70m. I don't understand why they'd pay $100m for Hamilton at this stage of his career, he's almost doubled his salary. FWIW, Max’s base is $50m, the additional $20m came from win bonuses. That said, I’m not shocked that Ferrari would pay Hamilton $100m. It’s a vintage Ferrari move. |

Or is his contract structured in a way where with performance bonuses it's worth up to $100m? Probably can't be answered yet, but I have a feeling that's what it really is. I'm sure he's still making loads of money though, and to that I say good for him. |

Come on I know you don’t even believe the nonsense you just wrote. 🫨😉 He tied Alonso and missed out on the championship by one point in his rookie year. He has lost out to his teammate 3 times total.  Which does compare reasonably well to this guy if you ignore the ill advised come back attempt in a midfield car. There were those that didn't like him either. Part of that is a tendency to want to cheer for the underdog. If you win several championships, you aren't the underdog. Expect to see the same thing with Max. It isn't rational, but it is a thing. He also initially retired at age 38.

Interesting. So it sounds like Hamilton and Leclerc will be getting along just fine if this report has any validity, and Sainz knew he was losing the seat to him weeks ago.

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By exDefensorMilitas: I was just adding some more info to the discussion. Matter of perspective I suppose. Max gets the setup he likes or Max is able to take advantage of a sharper car, which in most cases is going to be a faster car? A bit of both really. Absolutely. Everyone is so quick to argue and put down someone who likes a different driver, and we all wind up missing the truth. And the truth is often somewhere in the middle.
