Following Hamilton’s victory at the Russian Grand Prix on Sunday, Wolff said the team must go on the attack against Max Verstappen and Red Bull, who finished an improbable second after starting at the rear of the grid. Hamilton won at Sochi after an enthralling race in which he chased down the McLaren of Lando Norris who appeared to be on course to take victory. It proved to be the right decision as the rain intensified and Norris floundered, going wide and allowing Hamilton through to take the win. However, there is little to choose between the two teams and with Mercedes having stopped developing this year’s car Wolff admitted his team would have to try to take the fight to Red Bull.
