Formula 1 world champion Lewis Hamilton has said that he "couldn't be happier" after signing a new contract with Mercedes.
The Briton penned a three-year extension with the German manufacturer ahead of this weekend's Monaco Grand Prix, which is reportedly worth £100m.
"Mercedes is my home and I couldn't be happier to be staying here for another three years," the Daily Mail quotes the 30-year-old as saying.
"This is a company filled with real passionate racers, from the board room to the factory floor, and an incredible hunger to win. Even after the success of last year, that hunger is greater than ever, and it's the same for me, too.
"The Mercedes car I am driving right now is the best I have ever had in my career, it's just so much fun to be out there every weekend, on the limit and fighting to win at every track."
Hamilton already has a 20-point lead over teammate Nico Rosberg in this year's championship.
