Mercedes, Toto Wolff reveals a major regret of his from the past

During an episode of the podcast "High Performance", Mercedes team principal Toto Wolff è returned to the rainbow fight between Lewis Hamilton and Max Verstappen in 2021. More in detail, the Austrian manager è dwelt on the contact that took place between the two rivals at Silverstone, where it was the Dutch driver who got the worst of it è who è ended up against the high-speed barriers at Copse.

"In hindsight, I should have picked up the phone and called Jos to ask him how Max was doing. He would have clearly told me his thoughts on the incident and I would have been fine with that. I, però as a father, should have called Max's dad and I didn't. Now we have cleared the matter up. There were many other cases in that year that did not meet the standards we all expect. The year 2021 will be remembered as one of the toughest years in F1 and it è ended with an overall non-positive situation for the sport" began the Mercedes team principal.

"Max and Lewis were wheel to wheel the whole time, at that moment both of them gave up lifting their foot and è ended as è ended" added the Austrian manager.

"Fortunately he è not hurt, I carry it with me as the moment in 2021 that I am least proud of, because é I did not empathize enough with the papà" concluded Toto Wolff.
