Mercedes bosses out to resolve latest spat

Toto Wolff and Niki Lauda are confident they can resolve the latest crisis involving warring drivers Lewis Hamilton and Nico Rosberg.

Mercedes motorsport boss Wolff and non-executive chairman Lauda, along with executive technical director Paddy Lowe, are the men charged with finding a resolution in the wake of the fallout from Sunday’s highly-controversial Belgian Grand Prix.

In a heated post-race meeting at the Spa-Francorchamps circuit involving the trio and both drivers, Hamilton was left “gobsmacked” by Rosberg’s remarks when, according to the Briton, the German said he chose not to avoid their collision to “make a point”.
