F1 | Wolff is angry with Binotto: “Ferrari penalized by FIA directives? All bullshit!”
“There is a clear rule on power units,” said the Mercedes team principal
The skirmishes continue between Mattia binotto e Toto wolff. The two team principals, already protagonists of some indirect and remote back and forth during the first weekend of the world championship, also find themselves in Hungary against each other through the press. The technical director and boss of the Ferrari wall has admitted that the FIA's technical directives have crippled the engine of the Maranello company, but the good Toto, who makes his debut at the request of the journalists present at the Hungaroring, does not share the same opinion.
“It's all bullshit – said Toto Wolff. There is a clear rule on power units: there were clarifications in Austin, what was allowed and what was not. They were important, but nothing that surprising, just follow the rules. I think the irony of the story comes from the fact that some of ourrivals have pushed us to entirely new heights. Last year they took us to near exhaustion to develop and innovate to be competitive on the track, and here we are! I believe we were able to make an important leap from 2019 to 2020."
On the signing of the next Concorde Agreement, Toto Wolff stings Mattia Binotto again, who on Friday declared that Ferrari is ready to sign: “I don't understand why some teams have made such ridiculous comments: they are ready to sign and it seems that others are not. There are laughs with those public comments, because negotiations should take place behind closed doors, in private, without comment. And in this regard we are talking to Liberty Media: we are enthusiastic about remaining in Formula 1 and there are some clauses that disturb us a little, but nothing unsolvable."
