Forbes had previously released their top 10 of 2022, confirming Hamilton had dropped out since 2021, but have now confirmed the entire t🅠op 50 which is dominated by US sportspeople.
Hamilton’s income from F1 was $57m🐼 (£47m) and his extra reve💟nue was $8m (£7m).
Interestingly his F1 income has dropped from $70m ᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚin 2021 (in part due to the worst statistical season of his career where he didn’t win a single race), but his revenue outside of sport has grown from $8m to $12m.
Hamilton’s many business interests✨ outside of F1, includ༺ing a stake in NFL franchise the Denver Broncos, contribute to his total.
In 2022 he was No1 in the 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:F1 drivers salaries list, slightly above Verstappen.
The Mercedes driver is contracted for one m𝓰ore season but plans to extend his stay.
Ver🥃sꦑtappen’s income outside of F1 totals just $2m (£1.6m).
He is on a long contract at Red Bull and, if the dominance that has seen him rack up consecutive champi🤪onships continues, then his earnings outside of F1 could escalate too.
James was a sports journalist at Sky Sports for a decade covering everyt🦄hi🐓ng from American sports, to football, to F1.
