Mercedes-Benz Motorsport chief Norbert Haug later attributed the failure to a problem in the pneumatic valve system, caused simply by a bad batch of parts.
Despite the second incident and its echoes of the 1955 Le Mans disaster, Norbert Haug decided to go ahead and enter the other two cars in the afternoon, with additional modifications and instructions to the drivers not to follow other cars closely over humps.
Wolff is expected to take over the coordination of all Mercedes-Benz motorsport activities, a responsibility previously held by Norbert Haug.
