Mercedes team principal Toto Wolff has waved away suggestions that CTO Mike Elliot's departure is related to the team's performance issues during the 2023 Formula 1 season.
Earlier this week Mercedes announced Elliot would be stepping down from his role as Chief Technical Officer, seven months after swapping roles with technical director James Allison. Elliott, who originally joined the squad in 2012 as head of aerodynamics, was hailed for his instrumental role in Mercedes' unprecedented streak of world championships in F1's turbo hybrid era.
