The British The Sun, citing its sources, has published data on the salaries of Formula 1 drivers in the 2022 season.
This rating has been topped by Mercedes driver, seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton for several years, but Max Verstappen is closing the gap every year – and next season, if he wins the title again, he could take the lead.
