Thats not basic wage though is it? 50mill a year is obviously pretty mucy a million pound a week. When you look at the wages for those players through google, they say numbers like 400k a week or 500k a week. I know Ronaldo is reported to be earning upwards of 100mill a year, but thats not their basic standard wage.Jolle wrote: ↑06 Jan 2021, 11:41Ronaldo, Messi and Neymar to name a few.NathanOlder wrote: ↑06 Jan 2021, 11:3350 million a year..

I dont know and it's impossible to measure, but I doubt Mercedes is selling more cars because their driver has been honored by brittish royalty.
What does his skin colour have to do with his salery?
It shows Merc is brand that supports diversity.aMessageToCharlie wrote: ↑06 Jan 2021, 12:35I dont know and it's impossible to measure, but I doubt Mercedes is selling more cars because their driver has been honored by brittish royalty.
What's evident though, is that the team can win races and most likely championships with other drivers, who would be content with a much lower compensation. Everybody is replaceable.

I dont think Mercedes would/should promote racial discrimination by making decisions based on skin colour in the current polical climate.adrianjordan wrote: ↑06 Jan 2021, 12:36It shows Merc is brand that supports diversity.
Thought processes like that are how you end up not winning.aMessageToCharlie wrote: ↑06 Jan 2021, 12:35What's evident though, is that the team can win races and most likely championships with other drivers, who would be content with a much lower compensation. Everybody is replaceable.
That’s their standard wage. On top of that they have their deals with shoe factories and stuff. Hamilton is the only F1 driver by the way who has any big income apart form his team salary (around 12 M, most other drivers are well under a million), what also shows his marketability.NathanOlder wrote: ↑06 Jan 2021, 12:11Thats not basic wage though is it? 50mill a year is obviously pretty mucy a million pound a week.

Pure speculation. There are two big rumours going round. One is that people think that he wants to much money, the other one is that he wants more saying about his portret right and image.hUirEYExbN wrote: ↑06 Jan 2021, 14:16Are the Hamilton/Merc delays confirmed to be about money or is that just speculation?
The difference in football and F1 is that a driver is nothing without the equipment. He cannot have the same impact when moves to other teams that has slightly inferior equipment. Whereas a footballer has almost same impact in most teams. Besides, F1 teams have to spend hundreds of millions of dollars to build the equipment that the driver drives. Hence, an F1 driver's skills from a remuneration perspective cannot be compared to that of footballers. A footballer is a star attraction in football. In F1, it's the car + driver.Jolle wrote: ↑06 Jan 2021, 14:54That’s their standard wage. On top of that they have their deals with shoe factories and stuff.
