Toto Wolff explains why Red Bull F1 budget cap penalty impact is "not going to be big"

Toto Wolff doesn't believe Red Bull will be too affected by their punishment for breaking Formula 1 budget cap rules.

It emerged last year that they had committed a "minor" overspend in the 2021 season – the first in which the regulations were in force. As a result, Red Bull were slapped with a £6m fine and had 10% of their wind tunnel testing time over the next year taken away by the FIA.

The fine is a relative drop in the ocean to a team with such resources, but the sporting penalty has the potential to have a major impact. Having won the title, Red Bull already had less wind tunnel time at their disposal compared to their rivals.
