Wolff to decide after the race whether to register a protest against flexiwing

Amidst yet another heated exchange of words between Christian Horner and Toto Wolff, the Mercedes team boss not only declared that he considers his colleague an "airbag", but he also announced that he wants to wait for the result of the race before he files a protest with the FIA regarding Red Bull's flexible rear wing.

"Everyone is getting a little tired of this flexi-wing saga I think and that includes myself," Wolff begins in conversation with the Dutch branch of Motorsport.com.

Wolff explains that he is holding off on lodging a possible protest against Red Bull's flexible rear wing, something he has been threatening to do for a longer time. The team boss first wants to see what happens at the Grand Prix before making a final decision on whether or not to go to the FIA.

"Let's see what happens. I don't know exactly what Red Bull had on their cars today and what they will do tomorrow. Then [after the race] we will decide on a possible protest," the Austrian said.
