Hamilton primed for Mercedes mega-deal talks

Lewis Hamilton put a shot across Mercedes bows as he prepared for talks over his new $90million mega-deal.

As the champions kicked off their title defense at Jerez in Spain on Sunday, the 30-year-old roared: "I am 30 now. I am my own man. I know my worth."

Hamilton and boss Toto Wolff both insisted talks would start in the days that followed his title victory in Abu Dhabi last November.

But nearly two months later it has still not begun and speculation is building something is amiss. Daily Mirror
