As none of us, the media or even our inside contact in the paddock were party to the contract discussions between Hamilton's team and Mercedes, who knows who only wanted a short period contract. My gut feeling is that as Hamilton had an option to extend his stay at Mercedes for a further year - 2025 - it would appear logical that his side requested a short contract.
However, that is pure speculation bearing in mind that Mercedes doesn't appear to have a reciprocal option, unless, of course, that they hadn't triggered it in time.
