Lewis Hamilton and Mercedes have yet to finalise a new contract for the seven-time world champion as we near summer break.

It appears that an agreement has been close for a number of weeks now, with the finer details – rather than money or the length of the contract – being worked on. The final race of Hamilton’s current contract is just over four months away, and talks have been ongoing for some time.

Lewis Hamilton’s three podiums in the past four races indicate that he is still performing at the peak of his abilities. He is a consistent performer, who shows no signs of slowing down.

At Silverstone, he told Sky Sports that he believes he has another five years left in him. However, as it stands, he does not have a contract in place for 2024. It will be intriguing to see what happens at Hungary. Lewis leaving Mercedes for another team (Ferrari) is unlikely – but this is Formula 1!.
