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

Wolff communicated with Hamilton on two sep🐠arate♔ occasions during last weekend’s race at the Red Bull Ring.
The second radio soundbite caught the headli🍒nes as Wolff appeared to be frustrated with Hamilton’s complaints about tra🦂ck limits and Mercedes’ lack of performance.
Wolff said ౠduring the race to Hamilton: “The car is bad, we know. Please drive✅ it.”
In an interview with Sky Sports on Friday at the British Grand Prix, Wolfꦅf was asked about his radio intervention, and explained why it happened.
“A lot ha🥂s 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 rarely𒅌 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 con🅰tract talk💎s still ongoing.
On Thursday at Silverstone, Hamilton told his adoring fans that he could see h൩imself staying in F1 for the next five y▨ears.

Wolff was asked about Hamilton’s claim, and the German thinks it’s a realistic possibility, citing 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Fernando Alonso’s longevity.
“You can see with Alonso,” he added. “If that was the case I think Lewis has another 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 pꦿerformance athletes have found ways of extending their careers by living a decent life and doing all ꦡthe right things.”
