It was in 2013 when Lewis Hamilton and McLaren broke up their relationship and the brit became Mercedes driver. But, from woking the door of a rewelcome is not close at all. Zak Brown tolds in sport24 that they would be glad to have the brit in the team again, probably when Fernando Alonso retires from F1.
Despite de 4 times World Champion didn’t say a single word about this, Mercedes team principal, Toto Wolff, did. The former driver said that, despite the brit contract expires on late 2018, they will work for a new one. By the way, Hamilton it’s able to speak to other teams until the deal of a new contract is reached.
“I don’t think there’s a team in the pitlane that wouldn’t be interested in having Lewis drive for them, us included”, tells Zak Brown, McLaren CEO. “If anyone got Lewis, it would be great for the team. He has a great history here and he is very friendly with the shareholders.”
The important think is what Hamilton thinks about all this. The dominator on this hybrid era that began on 2013, won 3 champinships, being the first one reached with McLaren in 2008, winning Felipe Massa and Ferrari on the last race at the Brazilian GP. But actually, McLaren it’s not attractive for the brit and things must change a lot for being atractive, at least on the sporting side.
