Damon Hill believes Toto Wolff’s comments following Max Verstappen’s record-breaking victory in the Italian Grand Prix are a sign of frustration over Mercedes’ struggles to keep pace with Red Bull.
The Mercedes team principal was dismissive of the significance of the two-time world champion's feat of becoming the first Formula 1 driver to win 10 races in a row, telling Sky Sports F1: 'It's for Wikipedia, nobody reads that anyway.
' Verstappen had to battle Ferrari pair Carlos Sainz and Charles Leclerc before sealing a win in Italy which now sees him lead the drivers' standings by 138 points from team-mate and nearest rival Sergio Perez.The Dutch racer looks firmly on course to make it three championships in a row with eight rounds of the 2023 F1 season remaining, and Hill was full of praise for Verstappen setting another benchmark.
