Mercedes team principal Toto Wolff announced that police are investigating an anonymous email accusing the team of sabotaging Lewis Hamilton's performance. Speaking at the Spanish Grand Prix, Wolff dismissed the allegations as unfounded 'conspiracy theories' and emphasized the team's commitment to Hamilton and their shared goals.
'We are researching the IP address and phone details related to the email, as such online abuse needs to stop,' Wolff stated. Highlighting Hamilton's 12-year tenure with the team, Wolff underscored the mutual trust and the team's desire for a high-note conclusion to their partnership.
Hamilton surprised the F1 community in February by announcing his move to Ferrari in 2025. While his current season shows a slight underperformance compared to teammate George Russell, Wolff emphasized the team's unwavering support for Hamilton and their focus on winning the constructors' championship.
