Wolff called Jos Verstappen to calm Max down

Toto wolff Jos called Verstappen in order to ask him to speak to his son Max. The executive director of Mercedes Motorsport expressed concern about seeing the driver Red Bull disrupt the title race between Nico Rosberg and Lewis Hamilton, the winner of the Spanish Grand Prix having almost caught the leader of the Championship in Mexico on October 30.

Dr. Helmut Marko, head of the Red Bull Junior Team sector, did not appreciate his compatriot’s approach.

" It makes no sense. If he has something to say, he should tell the Red Bull staff and not Max's father, commented Dr. Helmut Marko. We do our shopping, it's not like the Mercedes are giving us a ride. This attitude really surprised me, it’s not good. »

For his part, Max Verstappen does not intend to change his approach in the last two races of the season.

“I won’t change anything from usual, confirmed Max Verstappen. Everyone must fight for the best places until the last event. Otherwise, they wouldn't deserve to be champions. »
