Wolff fed up with Verstappen and Red Bull domination: 'One team just better'

That Max Verstappen and Red Bull Racing are doing well in the 2023 Formula 1 season is no secret. The Austrian racing stable has now managed to win for the 15th consecutive time. Verstappen himself now stands on a run of 10 wins. Mercedes team boss Toto Wolff talks about dominating within the top class of motorsport.

After the Italian Grand Prix, Wolff had the negative take as he explained that Verstappen's record of 10 races in a row probably didn't matter very much anyway. It would only be fun for Wikipedia, Wolff told reporters after the Monza race. Earlier, he also compared the dominance periods of Red Bull and Mercedes.

Red Bull and Verstappen dominance according to Wolff

"I think clear variability and unpredictability is what makes a sport exciting," the Mercedes team boss told GPblog before the Italian Grand Prix, among others. "You want to look at the telly on Sunday and hope for a fight. That's not the case at the moment," the Austrian Mercedes team boss told GPblog. "but it's not happening because one team with one driver is just doing a much better job than anybody else," he says.

"It's up to us to find solutions that are in progress to a certain degree because seven tenths is not something you find from one race to the other. We've seen it with McLaren that one update basically changed their performance levels considerably and the same with Aston Martin over the winter, so it's possible and it's up to us to get us there," Wolff concludes.
