Lewis Hamilton's on £641,000 a week at Mercedes, now highest paid British sportsman

Formula One champion Lewis Hamilton today signed a new 3-year deal with Mercedes worth in the region of 100million pounds. That means he will be making around £641,000 a week.

Mercedes unveiled the news that the 30-year-old, whose contract was due to expire at the end of this season, would be remaining with the team on the eve of this weekend's Monaco Grand Prix.

Hamilton has signed a three-year deal which will keep him at the British-based outfit until the end of the 2018 campaign. The double world champion will also become Britain's highest-paid sportsman. 



Hamilton's new contract is worth £100million over three years. He will become Britain's highest-paid sportsman... 

So, what Hamilton will take home...
  • per year = £33,333,333
  • each week = £641,026
  • day = £91,575
  • per race* = £1,571,429 
 * Based on a 21-race calendar
