“I think we need to see how well Lewis recovers,” said the Austrian.
“That’s the most important that he’s well and he says he’s a bit better today, he’s made a big step.
Talking about the seven-time champ’s possible return in Abu Dhabi, Wolff said:
“If the test is negative, it’s his car, and then I am sure he will drive a brilliant race. Then if the test in Abu Dhabi is positive then George is in the car.”
