Toto Wolff is concerned Lewis Hamilton and other drivers could suffer from brain damage if the FIA refuse to implement more changes to address concerns regarding porpoising.
Mercedes have improved after a rocky start to the 2022 season, with both Hamilton and teammate George Russell getting on the podium at the last two races. In fact, Hamilton achieved his fifth successive spot on the podium after clinching P2 last time out at the Hungarian Grand Prix.
Hamilton’s attempt to bounce back from his 2021 championship heartbreak with another title challenge was derailed by the Silver Arrows’ earlier struggles, primarily with porpoising. The octuple world champions had struggled with severe bouncing as their cars have been rattling uncontrollably following the new regulations and car designs implemented for the 2022 season, rendering Mercedes uncompetitive when it comes to fighting for wins.
