After the FIA launched an investigation into Toto and Susie Wolff’s alleged conflict of interest, which she labelled “intimidatory and misogynistic”, Lewis Hamilton took to social media to express his support.
A recent report from BusinessF1 magazine has suggested that Mercedes team boss Toto Wolff and his wife, F1 Academy Managing Director Susie Wolff are allegedly disclosing confidential information to each other.
The FIA then announced they have opened an investigation into the matter, but refrained from naming any names.
Immediately afterwards, Formula 1 came out with a statement of its own, claiming that they have not been notified of any such investigation, and completely denying the allegations.
The Mercedes F1 Team also denied the allegations and said that they have not been contacted by the FIA, and had to learn about the investigation from the media.
Susie Wolff has so far been the only directly implicated person to come out with a statement of her own, and she said she was “deeply insulted” by the allegations, and added they were “rooted in intimidatory and misogynistic behaviour”.
Lewis Hamilton then took to social media, shared Susie’s statement, and expressed his support.
