“I listened to the team and that was the direction that they said that we should go. Had I known the feeling that I would have in it, it wouldn’t have happened. It has to change for the future. 100 per cent.”
Wolff has since vowed to make the correct adjustments to next season’s car in order to give Hamilton and George Russell a smoother ride in 2024. Speaking to Italian newspaper Gazzetta dello Sport, Wolff said: “We have to get back to basics. I don’t want to hear Lewis say anymore ‘My cockpit is too far forward’.

“The biggest problem is that the drivers have no confidence in the car. We have to give them a solid foundation to score good points. There is only one man at the moment who stands head and shoulders above the rest.
“Ferrari, Aston Martin, McLaren and us are all in the same situation. At least we are second in the constructors’ championship, because after all these years we have learned how to optimise our results. It’s just that no one comes close to Verstappen.”
