Guenther Steiner has hit back at Toto Wolff’s claim that he wouldn’t have “dared” treat Mick Schumacher as he did at Haas if father and seven-time World Champion, Michael, had been by his side regularly when he was at the team.
Mercedes team principal Wolff acted quickly to bring Schumacher to the Silver Arrows as reserve driver behind Lewis Hamilton and George Russell to keep him in the Formula 1 paddock, but the move to leave the young German without a drive for this season was a divisive one by Haas – with opinion split on whether or not he should have kept his seat with the team.
From the point of view of the team, Steiner believes he and Haas always gave Schumacher and Magnussen equal treatment where possible last season – explaining where upgrades needed to be shared when necessary, and that he would never want to “sabotage” anyone driving for the team, not least because it is not in his or the team’s interest to do so.
