Mercedes team boss Toto Wolff suggests the German fans are burnt out after all the success the sport has had. He talks about the disappearance of the German Grand Prix in an interview with motorsport magazine.

"It is not an easy situation. A Germany Grand Prix is something beautiful for our fans and our employees. It is a shame that there is no longer a German race on the calendar," Wolff said.

"We had seven years of dominance from Michael Schumacher, then four years of Sebastian Vettel - they won everything. Perhaps it is time to sober up and recover."

It's a little bit surprising that Wolff misses out his own German dominance with Mercedes. But you'd think the success would make the fans want more?
