We look forward to watching Lewis Hamilton continue to challenge for his potential eighth Formula One World Drivers Championship title across the remainder of the 2021 season.”

In addition to the logos the Mercedes-AMG Petronas team will sport, FTX logos will be displayed on the team’s fleet of Mercedes-Benz trucks.
