Besides if Hamilton does become the equal of Alonso in racing terms, Hamilton will be a far more attractive employee because im sure his wage packet is a fraction of Alonsos. Plus he's a sponsorships dream... young, the novelty of being the first black driver, and highly skilled... and British!
I totally agree. But from Hamilton's point of view, he wants to be World Champion and I can't see it happening with Mclaren, I bet he will receive some tempting offers from other teams. But like you said, would he leave? Hamilton seems the type of driver that would be loyal to the Mclaren team, especially after all Ron has done for him. But it's hard to say
Well remember the opportunities MS got with the Mercedes sportscar team. He never looked back. Sure he was tempted by Norbert again.
