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 through sponsorships and m💟arketing activities) but these numbers a🌠re estimated solely on their on-track earnings.
The top 10 drivers raked in $258m combined this year, a ♓reduction from $264 in 2022.
Verstappen's huge b🌼onuses, having won 19 grands prix, made a huge difference.
But Hamilton is reportedly on a bigger base salary than Verstappen. Although he didn't claim a penny i𝄹n bonuses after a second winless yearꦕ.
Verstappen can probably hope for ཧa raise from Red Bull after his record-breaking year, while Hamilton penned a new contract with Mercedes midway through 2023.
“Clearly that is a big differentiator today, that big teams can just offer much bigger salaries to drivers,” Me🌳rcedes team principal Toto Wolff told Forbes.
Haas’ Guenther Steiner added: “Once the cost cap starts to work even better than now, and I’m saying it’s already working good now, the driver will have more of an impact 𒐪again.
“And obviousl🍌y the price for th▨e drivers will go up.”
