Toto Wolff downplays Lewis Hamilton radio telling-off: ‘Something only he would understand’

Wolff communicated with Hamilton on two separate occasions durinꦇg last weekend’s race at the Red Bull Ring.
The sec🐲ond radio soundbite caught the headlines as Wolff appeared to 🅘be frustrated with Hamilton’s complaints about track limits and Mercedes’ lack of performance.
Wolff said during the race to Hamilt♏on: “The car is bad, we know. Please drive it꧑.”
In an interview with Sky ღSports on Friday at the British Grand Prix, Wolff was asked about his radio ♚intervention, and explained why it happened.
“Aꦕ lot has been said about that comment. I tried to communicate with Lewis on something that only he would understand. It was between the team and him we knew what it was,” Wolff said.
“I rarely come on the radio so it wasn’t about telling a seven-time world champion 🔥to not get too distracted, it🦹 was something else.”
Hamilton has yet to sign a contract extension with Mercedes, with contract talk🙈s still ongoing.
On Thursday at Silverstone, Hamilton told his adoring fans that he could s🍃ee himself staying in F1 for the next five years.

Wolff was asked about Hamilton’s claim, and the German thinks it’s a realistic possibility, citing 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Fernando Alonso’s longevity.
“You can see with Alonso,” he added. “If that was the case I think Lewis has a🌞nother four years so that’s not so far away from what he’s said and I have no doubts that he can do that obviously with Mercedes.
“In 🐓this day and age, sports - high performance athletes have found ways of extending their careers by living a decent life and doing all the right thingsꦫ.”
