Lewis Hamilton has still not signed a new contract with Mercedes and that is causing some speculation. How sharp does Mercedes dare to play this game? According to Eddie Jordan Mercedes cannot do without Lewis.
Hamilton has won six world titles in the last eight seasons for Mercedes. Each year Mercedes provides him with the best car, but he still has to beat his teammate. While many people feel that anyone in that car would win, Eddie Jordan knows that Hamilton is special to Mercedes.
”Lewis is just the icing on the cake. He’s the guy everyone wants to talk to after the race. Of course Mercedes will say that the success is also to do with the car and that he is the best in that car, and I won’t deny that. However, I still believe that if Mercedes think they can achieve this success with another driver, then they are dreaming,” Jordan said in the Sporting Life podcast.
