SPIELBERG, Austria (Reuters) - Formula One's future prize money structure should do away with special bonuses for top teams and instead be based on past and present performance, Mercedes motorsport head Toto Wolff said on Thursday.

Speaking after talks at the Austrian Grand Prix with commercial supremo Bernie Ecclestone, Wolff told reporters that the sport was making more money than ever and all teams should be guaranteed a basic amount.
