The staff in the Formula 1 paddock see each other a lot of days a year. They may sometimes see each other more often than their own families. Mercedes team boss Toto Wolff tells which team boss is his favourite in the F1 paddock.

The current Formula 1 calendar consists of 24 races. This means that Formula 1 team members are on the road for almost more than half the year. As a result, we have often heard that the paddock is a small world where everyone knows each other well.

These are Wolff's best friends in the F1 paddock

Mercedes team boss Toto Wolff was asked by Sky Sports in Saudi Arabia who his favourite team boss in the paddock is.

It gets a bit difficult now as direct competitors, but I think that comes with the job and we get along really well,'' the Austrian replied.

Besides the Ferrari team boss, Wolff also gets along very well with the McLaren team boss. ' 'I get on well with Zac (Brown), same mentality, but we are all fierce competitors when we enter the paddock. '' Wolff does not name Red Bull Racing team boss Christian Horner among his best friends in the paddock, but then it is no secret that the two do not get along very well.
