Lewis Hamilton hints at Mercedes contract demand he will make to Toto Wolff during talks


Lewis Hamilton has won his seventh world championship at the weekend after his performance at the Turkish Grand Prix. And the 35-year-old has dropped a hint on what he wants to be included in his new contract at Mercedes. Hamilton has long made it clear that he plans to stay with the team into 2021. Toto Wolff has also indicated on numerous occasions that he expects the British racing superstar to continue with the Silver Arrows. When asked on BBC whether working in more time for himself in the contract will be an important part of the talks, Hamilton said with a smile: "Potentially. That's always going to be a part of the conversation. I need more time. And I think this year has shown that for example you can work from home. "So I'm sure there will be a lot of Zoom days in the contract other than actual present days which means I have to fly less, which is good." Hamilton also went on to state his desire to continue in F1 to help further in his hopes of achieving more diversity in the sport. "I would love to stay, I still want to be here," he added. "I still feel young. I still feel energised and hungry. What's crazy is that yes I won this seventh title, but we have another big, big fight to win and that's for racial equality across the board. And diversity in my sport, which I thought I would have helped shift just by being here but I realise that's not the case."
