What's his leverage? Only drive I could see him going for is Aston Martin. That way he'd still end his career with Mercedes, only driving with a Mercedes engine in the back in all of his career.
Who would he replace, Alonso or Stroll jnr though?
Ferrari?
I'd pay good money to see him at RedBull. It'd spice up the multi year dominance I bet.
His leverage is he is Lewis Hamilton. He brings so much value to Mercedes in terms of marketing and brand, on top of being an amazing driver. He can step away if he chooses to. Is that more costly to Mercedes than losing him?
Definitely. Doesn't hurt to have another team offering mega bucks to up your salary though :)
