Mercedes team boss Toto Wolff says “if we give Hamilton a good car that he can rely on, he can get back in front of everyone”.
Toto Wolff recently told The Telegraph that he has re-signed with Mercedes as the Team Principal and CEO, and he will remain in that position at least until the end of the 2026 Formula 1 season.
In a subsequent interview with La Gazzetta dello Sport, the Austrian was very blunt when explaining his motivation for remaining at the helm of the team.
“I’m staying at Mercedes to beat Red Bull with Lewis Hamilton,” Wolff said.

“Those who have driven in the simulator have told us that the 2024 car doesn’t look like the car of the last two years.
“If we give Hamilton a good car that he can rely on, he can get back in front of everyone,” he concluded.
This is not the first time that Wolff expressed his wish for Hamilton to win his eighth title. In earlier statements he even said that Mercedes ‘owes’ the Briton the title that he was unjustly denied at the controversial 2021 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.
