Wolff: Mercedes F1 team "in legal exchange" with FIA over compliance probe
This week, the FIA announced an investigation into allegations made in a media report suggesting Toto Wolff and his wife Susie were exchanging confidential information. Both F1 and Mercedes strongly denied the allegations and criticized the lack of communication from the governing body. Despite speculation that rival teams prompted the investigation, all nine remaining F1 teams expressed their support for the Wolffs. However, on Thursday, the FIA backtracked and announced that there would be no formal investigation after finding no unauthorized disclosure of confidential information. Toto Wolff stated that his team is in active legal exchange with the FIA and requested full transparency about the events. Susie Wolff criticized the FIA for the lack of transparency and accountability throughout the episode.
