Wolf: “An Injustice Similar to the Hand of God That Happened to Hamilton”

One of the biggest injustices in the history of world sports was what happened in the last one Grand Prize of the season o Toto Wolf. Her boss Mercedes considers that the Lewis Hamilton was blatantly wronged, with decision of race judge Michael Massey to prove decisive to overtake him in the last round o Max Ferstappen.

«It is one of the greatest injustices in the history of sports. Similar to the hand of Maradona God (s.s. the handball goal for Argentina against England in the quarter-finals of the 1986 World Cup) and the goal in the final of the 1966 World Cup (s.s. when it was not clear if the ball crossed the line in the goal of Jeff Hurst of England against West Germany). An arbitrary decision by the race leader took the title from Lewis“, He stressed.

As for the reason that no appeal was finally made? «Every step we took was together. We had objected after the match and carefully considered the possibility of an appeal. We decided together not to do it in the end. Although we would have won under normal circumstances, we did not want to be given the title in a courtroom».

Asked if he thought he would win the appeal, he replied: “No, because the FIA ​​would be the defendant and the judge at the same time in this case. This makes you weak, as it happened in the last round in Abu Dhabi».

Has he calmed down after what happened in the championship final? «Both Lewis and I feel wronged. My heart and soul are crying. When the principles of a sport are canceled and do not count at all, you begin to doubt whether all your work, sweat, tears and blood are worth it. Regulations need to change so that this never happens again and there are the right people to enforce them».

Finally, he sent a message for 2022. “We have already concentrated all our efforts to win both championships in 2022».
