A lot of Kimi's wealth was from his Lotus year, where he had a per year bonus of I believe Eu50K per point and he went on to score over 400 points and nearly bankrupted them!!!

 

Similar story with Casey Stoner and his 2007/2008 contract, made him millions!!

What the article also fails to put forward is the amount of money MS donates/ed to charity over the yesrs. One particular one that stood out was the year the tsunami happened in early 2000s and he donated around 30mil to relief efforts.

Found it: he donated 50mil the last 5 years he drove. He built schools in Dakar, clinics in wartorn countries, childrens homes in peru, donated 10mil to the Clinton foundation, donated milions to unesco as well.

 

Hamilton lobbies hard for creating equal oppertunitied for black kids in motorsports, but what has HE done to further the cause? Alobso has a karting school at his museum in spain and is actively involved in developing the next gen racers from spain

Dodging taxes should mean more money to donate surely.......

If there was a list of the biggest boxes, Hamilton would be tops there, for sure.

Maybe because for the first time in a long time it looks like Hamilton doesn't have the best car

I think his car may still be the best but I think the gap is now a lot closer. I am still a firm believer if every driver got a DECENT chance in his car he would be mid pack.

It is always interesting to watch ROC and see who really is the best. AFAIK Lewis has never been invited, pity, then we would really know if he is as good as his fans make him out to be.

I just wish the second Merc driver was a Rosberg and not a Bottleass. 

 

Lets see if Ricardo can catch up to his young team mate.

 

Can Mazepin do two FP without spinning?

 

Can Alpine find any pace?

some of those numbers seem a lil low...vettel must be worth more as an example. 

 

Shumie at one point was wotht a billion dollars as i recall. 

 

Rossi is worth around 150 million to put things in perspective. 

 

I see Button on the list...i see him from time to time in the area i live, i dont think he lives in the UK  full time however i should ask him for a las. Got a nice orange mclaren and gets a takeaway coffee from a place near me.

FP1 and 2 Today!

 

So happy with the F1 TV Pro subscription. I am really not sure why I am so into F1 again after being meh since my peak with Brawn 

It has come a long way...i've been on it since the start and it was literal horsecrap in the beginning. Now it, in conjuction with the timing app is how i consume f1 over a weekend

also, MSC continuing his utter spanking of mazespin. He came within 20 seconds of lapping him in Imola in the same car even though he also had a spin/crash at one stage. In P1 and P2 yesterday he was consistently over 1s a lap faster. Hell, he split Vettel and Gio on his soft tire run at one stage before his lap got deleted for track limits. They need to put him in the Alfa next to kimi so he can learn from someone who actually knows something. He'll learn nothing from Maz at this rate.

Alpine have dug up alot of pace in the last 2 weeks
