Toto Wolff has announced that he has not considered the possibility of stepping away from his team principal role at Mercedes after the team failed to record a single victory during the 2023 season. Instead, rivals Red Bull won 21 of the 22 races as Max Verstappen cruised to a third successive Drivers\u2019 Championship crown.<\/p>\n
The Silver Arrows dominated F1 after Wolff\u2019s arrival in 2013, winning every single Constructors\u2019 Championship title during the turbo-hybrid era with Lewis Hamilton, Nico Rosberg and Valtteri Bottas helping to cement the team\u2019s status as a behemoth of modern F1.\u00a0<\/p>\n
However, since Hamilton climbed onto the top step of the podium at the penultimate round of the 2021 season, Mercedes have experienced just a single race victory, which came when George Russell claimed his first-ever Grand Prix win following a commanding display at Interlagos in 2022.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cNo, I don’t,\u201d Wolff told RacingNews365 when asked whether or not he ever considers the possibility of stepping down from his role within the Mercedes management structure. \u201cBecause I still think that I can contribute to the team in my area of expertise.<\/p>\n

But they know me so well, that I have these difficult moments on Sunday night. I can contribute.<\/p>\n \u201cUnfortunately, I haven\u2019t found someone where I would say: ‘I think that person has more energy, more drive, more skill and all of these factors that I believe are important to be a Team Principal’.\u201d<\/p>\n While Mercedes still retained second place in the Constructors\u2019 Championship in 2023, this season was much more testing than the 2022 campaign as both Hamilton and Russell struggled to extract consistent performance from the W14.<\/p>\n More F1… <\/strong>
