MERCEDES could reportedly part ways with Lewis Hamilton at the end of the F1 season. The report suggests that the prospect of this has been raised by “many Hamilton detractors”. While there is still every chance that the 38-year-old could extend terms with Mercedes. Meanwhile, Hamilton was recently told Mercedes are up to 12 MONTHS in development behind rivals Red Bull. Indeed, Hamilton claimed he had “never seen a car so fast” after Verstappen breezed past him on lap 12 of the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix. Consequently, Mercedes have admitted they need to look at changing their W14 car concept altogether, with “radical” changes set to be introduced.
