Mercedes rejects “unsubstantiated allegations” against Wolff
The FIA is currently investigating a potential conflict of interest involving the passing of information between a member of FOM personnel and a team principal. Mercedes’ team principal, Toto Wolff, has been accused of receiving confidential information from his wife, Susie Wolff. However, Mercedes has strongly denied these allegations and claims to have had no communication with the FIA regarding this matter. They have expressed their willingness to cooperate and are expecting prompt and transparent correspondence from the FIA Compliance Department. This is not the first time the department has been involved this season, as Lance Stroll was previously investigated and received a formal warning for pushing his trainer after an early exit from qualifying at the Qatar Grand Prix.
