What were the FIA statements about Ms. Wolff? Out of the loop...

[–] Drusenija 16 points 8 months ago (2 children)

From memory FOM were alleging she leaked confidential information to Toto and that a number of teams had raised concerns. However every single team publicly came out and said they hadn't raised any concerns, and the Wolffs both came out saying nothing had been shared. FOM eventually dropped their investigation.

It wasnt FOM alleging, it was the FIA. Then the FIA investigated the FOM.

Which made it pretty clear to me that this had nothing to do with Suzie and a lot to do with the FIA-FOM conflict.

Sorry, that sounds right. As I said, was going off memory, thanks for clarifying!

Cheers! I like the bit about the co-ordinated statement, exposing a lie.

Why? They're married, they're supposed to, you know, talk to each other. Communicate. Coordinate their actions. You know, like, a functional couple.

I mean, nobody knows except these two if something critical was actually shared, but a coordinated statement is the least sus part of the story.
