The world has changed a lot since the last round of the 2021 World Cup. Accusations, cries of cheating, threats of lawsuits and now a red carpet and a court with Max Verstappen.
But the outrage began long before that, with the Silverstone crash that everyone remembers, and Verstappen's crash with the renegade G. While the Wolff family celebrated their victory with gusto. Then the ever-loyal Lewis Hamilton gave up Mercedes like a healthy man gives up a plague stick, and everything changed.
"We are faced with a great opportunity. A few months ago, it would have been absolutely incredible that such an option was even on the cards... But now we are looking for Lewis' successor and we are focusing on a very small number of drivers, and among them is someone we particularly want. Max Verstappen, who we know will not rush his decision. What is done is done, digested and closed. We have always respected each other, we have similar values and perceptions. And, looking back on the sinister 2021, I can say that I also made mistakes. I should have handled many things differently, not only in the last round of the last competition, but long before. However, Max, Jos and I have discussed this in the meantime and resolved this between ourselves," reflected Toto Wolff. The story smells a little like sunflower seeds...
VICTORIA: Wolff is already courting Verstappen...
