Wolff hits reverse over budget cap - Marko

Apr.24 Toto Wolff has "suddenly" hit reverse gear on a drastic reduction of the 2021 budget cap. That is the claim of Red Bull's Dr Helmut Marko, who said the Mercedes team boss was earlier a supporter of moves to significantly drive down the number amid the corona crisis. "A few weeks ago Wolff was willing to accept $100 million," Marko told f1-insider.com. "But now he has written a letter to the FIA in which he suddenly speaks of $145 million."
