[QUOTE="Swami, post: 81135, member: 13"] [SIZE=6][B]Valtteri Bottas signs new Mercedes deal for 2018 season[/B][/SIZE] [LIST] [/LIST] [IMG]http://ichef.bbci.co.uk/onesport/cps/480/cpsprodpb/13090/production/_97786977_botty.jpg[/IMG] Valtteri Bottas has won two races this season Valtteri Bottas has signed a new contract with Mercedes to race for the Formula 1 world champions in 2018. The Finnish driver joined Mercedes on a one-year deal in January 2017, as a replacement for retired world champion Nico Rosberg. The 28-year-old is third in this year's drivers' championship with two wins from 13 races. Team-mate Lewis Hamilton leads the standings. Bottas is in his fifth season in F1, having also driven for Williams. "When the team hired me for the 2017 season, they took a leap of faith by putting their trust in my skills," said Bottas. "This new contract shows that I've earned that trust." Prior to joining Mercedes, Bottas had never won a race and had achieved nine podium finishes, a figure he has already matched this season. Mercedes boss Toto Wolff said: "Bottas' upward trajectory made it a no-brainer for us to continue with him into 2018. "The chemistry and dynamic between Valtteri and Lewis works and are what we need to take the fight to our competitors." Swami [/QUOTE]
