He is ons of the highest paid sportsmen in the world.

What they are worth. So varies from driver to driver.


Can cost a team 20 million to take .5 second off a lap time, or they can pay shumacher a couple of million a race and him take double that off!


These days they make a lot of money through sponsorship too.
