On Thursday ahead of last weekend’s Italian Grand Prix, Mercedes announced contract extensions for both Hamilton and168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史: George Russell, keeping them at the team until the end of 2025.

It brought to an end a raft of speculation about Hamilton’s future - a𝓡nd how long he would remain in F1.

Rosberg - who spent four seasons as Hamilton’s teammate at Mercedes - thinks it’s only good news for the team - and Toto Wolꩵff - moving forward

“Stability, 💯calmness,” Rosberg said on the podcast. “It leads to uncertainty, even if the leadership, if Lewis hasn’t signed yet. It puts stress because what if Lewis prefers to go surfing at the beach? 

“Big problem. It puts stress on someone like Toto, who won’t show it because he’s an incredibly good neg🌳otiator and incredibly cold. But it puts stress.”

While Mercedes sit second in the constructors’ championship, they 🧜are no clo♈ser to challenging Red Bull than they were last season.

R🌸osberg has suggested Mercedes look at Red Bull’s RB19 and take ins💯piration from it to improve their own performance.

“Analyse the Red Bull car,” he added. “Christian Horner was telling me that he thinks next year will 🃏💖be closer because everyone will copy their car. That was his thought after Monza.

“All teams need to do that, understand what Red Bull is doing and go down that route, as much as possible🍸. 

“That’s what McLaren did, to some extent, and it wo🃏rked wonders straight away. All teams will do that. Also, under🐈stand what McLaren did to make such a jump, they’ve done an exceptional job.”
