Daniel Ricciardo: “I can’t decide how much my salary should be, but for now I have done a good job, winning two victories “.
Lewis Hamilton: “Are you in front of your teammate? Yes, I would say that this is enough as an argument in your favor, and we all know that Max earns much more than you “.
Daniel Ricciardo: “Lewis is very nice and is supporting me, if at the end of the year he should stop I can offer him to become my manager, what would be your percentage of the agreed salary “?.
Lewis Hamilton: “We can discuss it.”
After the 2018 Monaco Grand Prix, this nice curtain was staged between Daniel Ricciardo and Lewis Hamilton at a press conference. The theme of a Ricciardo Hamilton manager is back in the limelight today in the press room in Monza. The seven-time world champion was in fact questioned about the rumor according to which the Australian could consider joining Mercedes as a third driver in 2o23.
Hamilton commented on this scenario: “A driver with his talent deserves to race, if I were his manager he would race“Lewis joked between the serious and the facetious also because he added looking towards Ricciardo “I’m not going to retire soon, I’m sorry my friend”. The Stevenage driver is expected from an Italian Grand Prix in comeback from the back of the starting grid due to the fourth power unit of the season made necessary by the knockout of number three due to contact with Fernando Alonso during the first lap of the Grand Prix of Belgium.
“We are making a lot of progress with the team. We still don’t know if we will be as competitive this weekend as last, we will find out. I will try to recover from the bottom to the best of my ability. in Monza I won 5 times. It is a historic, unique circuit, the fastest on the calendar with a splendid audience where overtaking is easy. But it is not at all easy to race on this track“concluded Hamilton.
