Wolff acknowledged that Hamilton’s move to Ferrari could be an opportunity for both parties. While Mercedes aims to finish Hamilton’s career on a high note, the allure of a longer-term contract with Ferrari might have influenced Hamilton’s decision. Wolff described their journey as “sensational” and expressed respect for Hamilton’s need for change.
Toto said, “If Ferrari can give Lewis a competitive car, he can win the championship, there’s no doubt about it. When Lewis moves to Ferrari he will become an opponent, but I will always wish him happy days.”

In a delightful twist, Lewis Hamilton, the seven-time Formula 1 world champion, found himself caught up in an amusing but awkward situation during the Monaco Grand Prix paddock.

Riding a scooter, Toto scooted past Lewis, almost unnoticed. It was a split-second moment, but it left fans chuckling and wondering if they’d just witnessed a classic sitcom scene.
Fans couldn’t help but draw parallels to the iconic TV show “The Office.” The unexpected encounter between Hamilton and Wolff mirrored the show’s quirky and mundane workplace moments.
