Wolff: Prefer Safety Car ending to 2021 Hamilton-Verstappen duel

Mercedes boss Toto Wolff expressed satisfaction with the Safety Car ending at Silverstone, preferring it to the chaotic Hamilton-Verstappen showdown of 2021.

The final lap of the British Grand Prix did not deliver the expected shootout between George Russell, Lewis Hamilton, and Lando Norris. While Russell was on medium tires and Hamilton/Norris on softs, the Safety Car did not intervene to close the gap, resulting in a more controlled finish. Wolff believes this outcome was preferable to the dramatic 2021 battle at the same track. amunra.qpon
