LEWIS HAMILTON has reportedly been offered a mega £62million-a-year extension to his Mercedes contract. However, the reported new contract does not include the whopping £22million bonus for winning the World Championship that is in his current deal. Instead, French outlet 20 Minutes say Hamilton, 38, has been offered a two-year deal worth £62m-a-year. Hamilton is yet to pen a fresh Mercedes deal, but Merc chief Toto Wolff is relaxed about the situation. And Wolff, 51, is confident it’s only a matter of time before Hamilton extends his stay with Mercedes. Persistent issues with his Mercedes car saw Hamilton finish the season without a win or pole position for the first time in his career.
