Toto Wolff earns Steiner praise for Canadian GP decision

Former Haas team principal Guenther Steiner has praised Mercedes boss Toto Wolff for allowing his drivers to compete against each other at the Canadian Grand Prix.

Steiner commended Wolff's decision to let George Russell and Kimi Antonelli battle on track at the Circuit Gilles Villeneuve, noting it as a "remarkable" approach. This strategy comes as Mercedes has dominated the 2026 F1 season, winning every grand prix so far under the new regulations.

The Austrian team principal's approach contrasts with previous strategies that sometimes saw team orders implemented to preserve position. Mercedes' performance has been particularly impressive given the significant regulatory changes introduced for the current season. wlop.pl
