Hamilton signs single-year contract extension with Mercedes
Lewis Hamilton has signed a one-year deal to remain at the Mercedes Formula One team until the end of 2021, putting an end to a lengthy negotiation period between team and driver.
Hamilton, who has driven for Mercedes since 2013 and won six of his seven titles with the team, had previously signed multi-year deals with the world champions but on this occasion has only committed to one more year.
Negotiations over his new contract started in December last year and have been the source of extensive speculation as they have dragged out over the past two months.
