If Bottas is confirmed for another season alongside Lewis Hamilton it will leave no room in the senior team for either of its leading junior drivers, Esteban Ocon and George Russell, to graduate.
However Wolff said he is prepared to help Ocon find a place with a rival team if needed.
“If it would mean that we were taking a decision in favour of Valtteri it clearly also means that somebody else would continue to develop [Ocon] and would mean we would lose our hand for a year or two or more on Esteban, and these are the consequences of that decision.”
