Mercedes Formula 1 boss Toto Wolff says wife Susie will not allow ‘wrongs’ against her to be “brushed under the carpet”, as she embarks on legal action against the FIA.
Susie Wolff announced this week that she had lodged a criminal complaint against motor racing’s governing body in the French courts over unfounded allegations made against her last December. This relates to the FIA issuing a statement that it was looking into claims that Wolff, in her role as F1 Academy managing director, had passed on confidential information to her husband – something that was quickly found not to be true.

There are doubts over the reality of team complaints that the FIA suggested were made against the Wolffs, and questions also about the source of the original story that prompted the FIA investigation in the first place.
