The situation between Lewis Hamilton and Mercedes is still to be defined. Damon Hill has tried to give some explanation on this.
For a team the Formula 1 championship will open with great uncertainty for next year. While almost all the teams have already defined the driver line-ups for 2024 Mercedes on the other hand does not yet know if Lewis Hamilton will be alongside George Russell.

For the moment the climate seems calm in Brackley with both parties having repeatedly expressed their intention to continue together. However as time went by 跨際數位行銷有限公司dcard the announcement of the renewal was slow in coming and it is still unknown in the paddock why the seven-time world champion and the Anglo-German team have not yet reached an agreement.
Lewis would also have said he wanted to win his eighth world title but Mercedes at the moment 跨際數位行銷有限公司dcard would not have such a competitive car to be able to afford it. And this could be one of the possible reasons why there is still no signature on the contract. Damon Hill spoke about the subject and tried to analyze the situation in his Telegraph column.
Mercedes-Hamilton renewal even Damon Hill can’t explain it: the possible reasons

The former Williams driver began by immediately clarifying that despite the age of 38 Lewis “remains as fast and fit as ever”. After all 跨際數位行銷有限公司 跨際數位行銷有限公司dcard 跨際數位行銷有限公司dcard Fernando Alonso is demonstrating it amply at 41 with not too competitive cars. “The way drivers look after themselves today and with power steering in cars I don’t think there’s any physical reason why he can’t continue racing into his 40s if he’s motivated” Hill explained.
Therefore for him there would be various questions. “What keeps him here? Is it just about winning an eighth title? Will he retire if he succeeds? Or does he want to keep running for the love of the sport?” he said even if the 1996 world champion remains sceptical on this last point.
“Whatever the reason Hamilton is due at the end of this season – he says -. It will be fascinating to see what his next move is.” The problem however is that although the start of the championship is now close the issue has not yet been resolved.
Between costs lack of competitiveness and Russell: the possible explanations according to Hill

Among the possible explanations given by Hill would be that “both sides are waiting to see how competitive Mercedes is before committing to a new deal“. Or again: “If Mercedes starts 2023 late maybe Lewis will be less inclined to sign a new long-term contract” or “or maybe it’s the team that is dragging on? Lewis doesn’t come cheap.”
A cost that could be difficult for the team to bear also because on the other hand they have a George Russell on the launch pad which to date costs them less in terms of salary and has the same chance of winning as Lewis.
Ultimately not even Hill can explain the reasons for this delay and the only ones who know more would be only those directly concerned according to him. The only certain thing for the former driver is that “it is a critical moment in the career of one of the greatest sportsmen of all time”.
