“I can tell you, that all of you are playing a dangerous game,” Wolff can be seen telling team bosses who were opposed to FIA stepping in to stop ‘porpoising’ on safety grounds.
“If a car ends in the wall because it’s too stiff or it’s bottoming out, you’re in the s*** and I’m going to come after you.
“If you think this is a little game, you are very, very wrong,” the Austrian concluded.
To this Horner responded with: “Toto, if you’ve got a problem change your f***ing car.”
You will be able to see the whole scene for yourself when season 3 of ‘Drive to Survive’ premiers on February 24.
