Susie Wolff and Toto Wolff were investigated by the FIA earlier this year due to a conflict of interest. The world of Formula 1 in 2024 has been filled with controversies off the track rather than the on-track action. One of the latest controversies involves the F1 Academy Sporting Director filing a complaint against the governing body. The FIA launched an investigation into Susie Wolff and Mercedes boss Toto Wolff regarding a conflict of interest. Although they were later cleared, a recent complaint by the former has led to calls for transparency from the FIA. George Russell, among others, has expressed the need for a prompt response from the FIA. The reputations of Susie Wolff and Toto Wolff have suffered as a result of the FIA’s investigation, leading to criticism from various figures in the sport who are demanding transparency. Russell, in particular, has called for the FIA to be more transparent in light of the ongoing controversies. However, Russell also has other concerns at Mercedes, as the team has yet to fully unlock the maximum performance of their car, the W15.
