F1, Wolff: “Fourth power unit in Istanbul? Better than retirement”

ROME – Toto Wolff confirmed the possibility of introducing the fourth engine for Lewis Hamilton in the Turkish Grand Prix , valid for the fifteenth stage of the 2021 World Championship of Formula 1. The Mercedes team principal made it clear that, in order not to risk the worst, the change of Power Unit could be the best solution: We are looking at and studying all the vital parameters of the power units available to Lewis, we must be sure not to risk anything on the reliability front – told Sky Sports microphones -. A change of power unit involves a handicap that can be partially recovered with a good race, a second or third place limits the damage a lot. But a retirement would be a serious blow to the overall standings. So the fourth engine is a possibility, but we need to understand where it can be strategic to proceed with the replacement “.

Towards Istanbul

Wolff then spoke in view of the race weekend: “In previous editions both for we who have achieved important results for Lewis on the Istanbul Park track, I remember that Lewis on this track was the protagonist of an incredible race already in GP2, in his first race on this circuit. But by now we have seen that the margins are really small, so it is difficult to get out of balance. I’m certainly very curious to see how this championship will evolve in its final phase “.
