Red Bull Racing started the 2023 season with two winning doubles and a big speed advantage over rivals. Mercedes team boss Toto Wolff urges not to criticize the championship team for dominating the circuits, but to work hard to close the gap.
“There were seasons where we had the same advantage, but Formula 1 is essentially a meritocracy,” Racingnews365 quoted Toto Wolff as saying. “It’s not good for the show if the same team wins, but they only win because they did better than us.
We should not criticize them for this, because I remember similar criticisms against us in 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2020. In Formula 1 you have to work hard to win, and this factor is what makes the sport special.
The team will do everything possible to return to the fray. We will try to find their weaknesses. The sporting factor overshadows the entertainment factor, which may not be very good commercially, but that’s what makes Formula 1 so special.”
