Toto Wolff says Mercedes doesn’t plan to prioritise Lewis Hamilton in Abu Dhabi to try and maintain his F1 win record, believing it’s “not what he ever would want.” Full story ⬇️ AbuDhabiGP
But team principal Wolff said there was no plan to prioritise Hamilton going into the final race just to keep his win record alive, noting the seven-time world champion had previously dismissed its importance.“I think that he mentioned before that this record of winning a race in every single season, that is less of a priority for him.
“It’s more that we’re getting the car back to where it can be, and we’re racing for more race victories next year, and hopefully a championship.”, with the bigger focus instead being on making the Mercedes car competitive and learning lessons for 2023. “I'm not focused on the record but of course, I'm trying to get that win this year,” he said in September. “But the record is not important to me, just because I don't really care about records in general.”Photo by: Steve Etherington /
