A filmmaker with a soft spot for Ronnie Peterson, Gilles Villeneuve, Mika Hakkinen and above all, Tazio Nuvolari and Ayrton Senna, is also a diehard Formula One fan since the age of 4 (mid-90's). An avid researcher of the past of Grand Prix Racing since before it was even named F1, and with a thirst for knowledge of the ins and outs of the actuality of the sport, as well as for the technical aspects that define it, is a member of GPblog since 2023, where he has put his love of racing to good use.
Toto Wolff will not be present at the Japanese Grand Prix. The Mercedes team boss will miss out on the third race weekend of the year.
Wolff misses Japan Grand Prix
Wolff will be temporarily replaced by Bradley Lord, Mercedes' Chief Communications Officer who will represent the team that weekend.
In the paddock of the Shanghai International Circuit, Wolff indicated that he will not travel to the Suzuka circuit, where the Japanese Grand Prix will be held in a fortnight. "No, it's a coincidence that I'm missing that again. It's not the jet lag," jokes the 53-year-old Austrian.
Last year, Wolff was also initially not supposed to be present at the Japanese GP, but then the Mercedes team boss changed his plans at the last minute because it would feel "wrong" for him not to be with his team at a crucial moment in the season.
