"All the teams had the same opinion - that we probably need to go back to 2015. But there are various agendas and this proved that it is not an easy one, so I cannot tell you what happens next. Last time I told you, I was totally wrong," said Toto Wolff. Asked if he could explain how such a simple decision-making process had ended up in such chaos, he said: "A simple explanation? Madness."

Wolff was one of the team bosses who met the International Motoring Federation's Jean Todt and the veteran commercial ring-master Bernie Ecclestone on Sunday.
