I know the lowest paid driver gets $10 million a year. How much does a Kimi or Hamilton get just for driving? What about commercials and the such?

At his peak Schumi was on $16M a year from Ferrari plus sponsorship deals which were rumoured to be worth another $10M+ at least.

Louis Hamilton just signed a contract for $26 million this year. That doesn’t include outside contracts. Commercials etc.

m.schumacher claimed £35million per year but that was linked to ferrari’s sponsorship and his comittment with sponsors.

i read Hamiltons autobiography and it said in there the season just gone he was on i thin like £400k but because i think he might have renewed his contract
kimi around £10 - £16mil because he has moved up the ranks like football players some1 from a low league would get £1000 then if they got scouted then moved to championship he may get £20k then moved 2 premiership £40k it will go up due to exp and personal quality/skill so the more exp or titles you have the more money you earn but because hamilton has only just arrived a yr ago then he aint goin to b on the money that massa,kimi or alonso is on however i do think hamiltons contract is £70mil over a 5yr period that is £14mil per yr or over a 17race year that is £823,529 per race or on a 18race calender that is £777,777 per race which means hes earning like £1602 a hour or £26.70 per minute or 44p per second of the year
Commercials i think they get £5mil due 2 sponsors and known faces

As of right now Kimi is earning $55 million per season + bonuses
Lewis is earning 26 million per season + Bonuses
Alonso is rumored to be earning in the area of 40 to 50 million per season with Renault. However this is a 1 year contract and everyone in Formula 1 expects him to make a solid run for a Ferrari seat next season. That could also explain why JT is no longer a Ferrari CEO because he was strongly against Alonso coming to Ferrari.
Alsono when he was still with Mac last year only made 16 million. That is very very very very cheap for a 2 time world champ. Schumi made 60 Million with Ferrari but he did have 7 championships to his name.

Scuderia Ferrari Marlboro’s Kimi Raikkonen earns $52 million a year. Thats a million a week! Plus advertising and all that. Thats just his basic salary.
