I seriously have my doubts about that figure !!

 

Me too, particularly as the Guardian is hardly autosport.

They could be throwing in WDC and win bonuses I guess.

[GoldenColt]

I think we'll have a signed contract before the Monaco GP. Just a gut feeling.

The soap opera surrounding this contract is getting ridiculous.

I think it's moreso this topic.  I mean, they have all year to sign the damn thing, or not.

"Riverside" sounds like a good name for a soap opera. I can even picture the synopsis. 

 

"This week on Riverside, Lewis and Nikki have a lover's tiff"

Tut, tut. I thought better of you.

Ha ha good one...But ...  It's bound to happen.  Lewis has had a spat with everyone he's been involved intra-team perhaps

  the exception of Heikki.

I've always believed he'd stay at Merc. Sometimes the speculation is more dramatic than what's actually going on.

[TheRacingElf]

With just a few days before the Monaco GP, when are we going to get the announcement of them expecting the contract to be signed before Canada you think?

[AustinF1]

Should be any day now. Wednesday?

[Ducks]

Thursday morning?

Ooh, she's going to kill me when she sees that!

Who's the lady?

[oetzi]

I can't be certain, but I think it may be the ever-popular Katie Price.

She looks far to young (and pretty) to be Jordan, I mean Katie Price...

I think if Toto watched this he'd have no second thoughts about giving Lewis Hamilton whatever he wants in his contract.

 

[Norm]

I am sure Hamilton watches it daily.

Great video. It really shows how lucky we are to be able witness this era of F1.

Hamilton is a value at any price.

[bogi]

I think Lewis arrived for contract signing,

Should have turned up in the La Ferrari. That could have spooked poor old toto.

If Lewis is smart, loyal and grateful, then I'm sure that Toto appreciates that

I bet the Merc was well enough designed not to get your hands filthy if you touch the door on your way in or out.

[AustinF1]

Lewis set to have first choice for Monaco Q3 running...

Interesting comments. Seems like a lot of those folks don;t follow F1 much and/or have not even read the article.

So all this speculation about Ferrari in the mix was just jokers/bonkers .....

 

 

 Press conference.

 

 Q: (Dan Knutson - Auto Action and Speedsport) Lewis, I'm sure you looked at all options but you also said it was an easy decision to stay at Mercedes. So how much did you look at other options besides Mercedes?

 

LH: I didn't really at all. I said to Mercedes from the get-go that I wasn't planning to speak to anyone and I believe that they did the same.

I think it was more some posters who were willing their own driver into the Merc by hoping LH won't sign

We don't need two threads to discuss the contract.
