Hamilton has suggested he intends to stay at Mercedes until he retires from F1
A cautiously optimistic Mercedes boss Toto Wolff said the team has made "promising" progress since the first two Grand Prix of the season, with another solid points haul on his wish list for Melbourne this weekend."As always, we will look to maximise the car we have, and score as many points as our potential currently allows," he said of Sunday's Australian Grand Prix at the fast Albert Park circuit.
Following Sebastian Vettel's retirement, Lewis Hamilton needs greater support in pushing for human rights issues from his fellow drivers.
