168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:F1 driver salaries plus bonuses from their teams are not their only earnings (they also pocket money t𒁃hrough sponsorships and marketing activities) but these numbers are estimated solely on their on-track earnings.
The 🔴top 10 drivers raked in $258m co⛦mbined this year, a reduction from $264 in 2022.
Verstappen's huge bonuses, having w𓆏on 19 grands prix, made a huge difference.
But Hamilton is reportedly on a bigger base salary t🐲han Verstappen. Although he didn't claim a penny in bonuses after a second winless year.
Verstappen can probably hope for a raise from Red Bull after༺ his record-breaking year, while Hamilton penned a new contract with Mercedes midwa๊y through 2023.
“Clearly that is a big differentiator today, that big t🎶eams can just offer much bigger salaries to drivers,” Mercedes team principal Toto▨ Wolff told Forbes.
Haas’ Guenther Steiner added: “Once the cost cap starts to work even better t🔜han now, and I’m saying it’s alre♔ady working good now, the driver will have more of an impact again.
“And 🌼obviously the price for the drivers will go up.”
