Hamilton’s current deal with Mercedes expires at the end of the season, fueling traditional speculation that the 38-year-old is rejoining the team that helped him win six of his seven world titles , will still withdraw from the series.

It even sparked wild speculation about a possible move to Ferrari, which was quickly refuted by all parties.

Both Hamilton and Wolff have often said they could hammer out a new deal without too much difficulty, and after Sunday’s Spanish GP, Hamilton gave his firmest hint yet that a renewal was imminent.

Asked in his post-race press conference if a new deal was in the works, Hamilton laughed and said: “Well, I haven’t signed anything yet, but I think we’ll meet Toto tomorrow. So hopefully, We can accomplish some things.”

Hamilton’s words were echoed by Wolff when he was asked by Sky Sports F1 when Hamilton’s new deal would be reached.

“I think we just need to find time to sit down and have a cup of coffee. It will take half an hour,” he said.

Hamilton believes his Mercedes contract situation has had no impact on his performances, but admits it will be easier for him and the team to focus on challenging Red Bull in 2024 once the deal is over.

“Well, you can see today: my grades, my performances are not affected by that,” Hamilton explained.

“I think it’s always in the back of your mind, so once that’s done, you can focus more on the future.

Also read:

“But as I said, I’m trying to work as hard as I can with this team. I see so much power in a team and I think they’re still very hungry.

“Today’s podium was truly special; the excitement of seeing all the people I’ve worked with in such a short time.

“When we go back now, there will be energy in the office. But these people don’t take two seconds to enjoy themselves and be happy.

“Then they’ll go back to the books and try to figure out how we can win the next game. That’s what I love about them.”
