Mercedes boss Toto Wolff is wary about falling into the same 'trap' as Christian Horner during Red Bull's F1 dominance.
Mercedes boss Toto Wolff says he is keen to avoid falling into the same “trap” as Red Bull counterpart Christian Horner when it comes to their rivals’ current spell ofDuring Mercedes’ own streak of success between 2014 and 2020, Horner repeatedly called for the FIA to intervene by changing the regulations to reduce the advantage held by the Silver Arrows.
During this period, Mercedes have won just a single grand prix, while Ferrari - who have regularly been Red Bull’s nearest challengers - have only won five times. “I don't want to fall in the trap of a fellow team principal from next door in 2014/15 who said we should change the regs because it's too dominant,” Wolff said, in a clear swipe at Horner.
“It's just that they are in a different league. And our sport is an honest sport. The best performance is being rewarded from car, from machine and man.”
