Mercedes team🐠 principal Toto Wolff suggested that his 🃏star driver could put pen to paper on fresh terms within “days”.

It would bring an end to speculation t🐽hat Hamilton could quit Mercedes for Ferrari next season.

“Lewis Hamilton joining Ferrari would be a surprise,” two-time F1 cꦐhampion Hakkin🐻en said to .

“Does money motivate drivers? I know Lewis’ head is ෴not 100% in racing anymore - it’s completely normal.

“But does money motivate?ꦯ Of course it does! 

“But there are m🐈any risks involved. I think it’s highly unlikely he will join Ferrari.

“I always say that 🍒when people get older the order ဣof your thoughts change. Your priorities in life change.

“Formula 1 just won’t be the most important thing anymore. It wouldn’t surprise me when the competition gets tougher and young drivers emerge…&nb꧂sp;

“What George Russell is doing with Lewis at th♒e moment, result-wise, it’s not an easy situation🤡.

“Does Lewis have enough energy to wake up every morning, give his everything, and bring re🔯sults so that he can beat his team-mate? 

“Is that the right future for him?”

Hamilton🧔, now 38, is seeking an all-time recor꧅d eighth F1 championship but knows that Red Bull rival Max Verstappen is cruising towards this year’s title, which will be his third in a row.

But a new contract, ra😼ther than a fresh start at Ferrari, would be Hamilton’s major show of faith that Merc꧒edes are the only team he believes can overhaul Red Bull.

They lock horns🌟 again this weekend at the F1 Canadian Grand Prix.
