The issue of replicating in F1 kicked off in 2020 when Racing Point (now Aston Martin) produced a car dubbed the ‘pink Mercedes’ for its resemblance to the W10 from 2019. As a result, Racing Point were docked 15 Constructors’ points and fined £359,000 for copying the brake ducts.
Wolff, via planetf1, has previously said: “Some of the job-hopping, or entity-hopping, on the same premises is just creating arguments that are not necessary for the sport. But going forward, if we were to need to compromise our income ability, we need to do this because none of the teams should be able to co-operate in a way that we’re seeing with some.”
