Helmut Marko: Lewis Hamilton ‘annoyed’ that Max Verstappen overtook him as F1’s top earner
According to a report from Forbes, Verstappen earns the most a♚t an astonishing $60 million, while Hamilton is second on the list - for the first time since pre-2013 - at $55 million.
While Verstappen’s base salary with Red Bull is lower, it 🔜seems his dominant run of success has rewarded him with a sizable bonus.
Marko’s quotes come after reports of Ferrari making a suꦯbstantial £40 million o🐲ffer for Hamilton to join the team.
Marko believes that money could be a key motivating factor for Hamilton to ensure he’s earning the 🦄most money on the grid.
"There are two things that really annoy Hamilton," Marko told F1 Insider. "Firstly, that he is no longer world champion and will find it difficult 𒆙to become one again in the future.
"He knows there is no place for himও at Red Bull. And whether Ferrari will be better for him in t❀erms of sport than Mercedes is not set in stone.
"In addition to the spo𝄹rting perspective, Lewis is anything but happy that he is no longer the highest-earning driver in F1. `This is Max Verstappen now. ꦏAt least that he could change with Ferrari's help."
Hamilton is out of contract at the end of 2023, but all signs are൲ pointin🅰g towards him remaining with Mercedes.
