"I've always been very open about how I felt going forward,"ܫ Wolff said.

"I've made a step beyond the actual e🌞mployment and my role within the team of being a shareholder is a ൲long-term decision.

ꦓ"I keep introspecting of how much I can contribute to the organisation, and if one day I believe that there are shortcoming in an area, be it on the sporting, technical or commercial side or in the po𓆏litics, I would not hesitate for a second about appointing someone to that area of finding someone who could take over what I do.

"Because as a co-shareholder, my main interest is that the team prosperജs and that we are winning on track.

"That is 90ꦍ percent of what I do and the other 10 percent is business or financial development of the company.”

Wolff even said that Vowles could eventually come back to Merced🐼es as his replaceme🧸nt.

"Never say never because ๊he is great,” Wolff said. 

“I hope that he is going to have a long career as team p꧑rincipal at Williams and hopefully we see him in the press conferences after successful weekends.

"He could, have a 10-year stint there.

"You just need to let the bird fly ouಌt and do his own thing, and not at that stage anticipating that he is going to come back."
