Red Bull bosses laugh off latest Mercedes rumours: ‘That does not make sense’Have you heard the one about Toto Wolff having been given two races by Mercedes-Benz big bosses in Stuttgart to improve the team or else Aston Martin will effectively become the Mercedes works team?Mercedes and Aston Martin, a customer of the Mercedes’ engine department, had contrasting fortunes in the opening race of the new season.
While Aston Martin received plaudits after Fernando Alonso’s podium finish in Bahrain with the team hailed for their much-improved AMR23, Mercedes looked to be a team in trouble. The Brackley squad’s W14 failed to impress with Wolff admitting they need to go back to the drawing board as he does “not think this package is going to be competitive eventually.”
Mercedes’ wretched start to the season has not only led speculation about Lewis Hamilton’s future and whether he’ll still be around next season, it’s also created a rather baffling rumour.there is a rumour going around that claims Wolff has been given a deadline by Mercedes-Benz to improve, that deadline being round three of the championship in Australia.
And if he can’t do so, well then Aston Martin will be the favoured team when it comes to Mercedes’ engines, effectively becoming the works team.
