Former Formula One team boss says Mercedes can't do without Hamilton


Mercedes can't do without Lewis Hamilton, according to Eddie Jordan. The seven-time world champion is yet to sign a new deal with the Silver Arrows and his deal ended last month. The problems are reported to be Hamilton's contract demands. Hamilton has won six world titles in the last eight seasons for Mercedes. Ex-Formula one team boss Jordan knows that Hamilton is special to Mercedes. ''Lewis is just the icing on the cake. He's the guy everyone wants to talk to after the race. Of course, Mercedes will say that success is also to do with the car and that he is the best in that car, and I won't deny that. However, I still believe that if Mercedes think they can achieve this success with another driver, then they are dreaming,'' Jordan said in the Sporting Life podcast. However, the former Formula One team boss does not think that Mercedes is dreaming. ''If there is one thing I am sure of in Formula One, it is that Mercedes and team boss Toto Wolff are not dreamers. Wolff is very intelligent and he knows the value of Lewis. They will sit down together and come to a solution. Formula 1 needs Lewis Hamilton'', Jordan concluded.
