David Coulthard took aim at Toto Wolff for his words after the Bahrain Grand Prix which the Scot says would have been "a big kick in the whatnots" for Mercedes staff.
The Bahrain race was not a success for the Silver Arrows despite their hopes of being more competitive this year. Lewis Hamilton and George Russell finished fifth and seventh respectively, with the former admitting after the race that even that result flattered his team.
Wolff was similarly blunt, stating after qualifying: "I don't think that this package is going to be competitive eventually. We gave it our best go last year, also over the winter, and now we all just need to regroup, sit down with the engineers, be totally non-dogmatic, ask what is the development direction we want to pursue in order to be able to win races.
