Putting Romeo in Alfa Romeo, Valtteri Bottas is everything an Australian girl would want in a man. The Finn has completely redefined himself after leaving Mercedes and getting the freedom he wanted at the Swiss team. Bottas is becoming the perfect specimen while dating his Australian Olympic cyclist girlfriend Tiffany Cromwell. The influence is so far-reaching that fans are asking him to change his nationality.

Bottas still has time before he puts on the Stake F1 Team Kick Sauber overalls and hides his personality under a helmet. So to make the most of the remaining winter break before he goes racing again, Bottas went under yet another transformation.

Bottas shocked the world when he sported his mullet for the first time around the paddock. He made headlines again when he debuted his mustache to go with it. Now, following in his girlfriend’s footsteps on and off the track, Bottas has died his hair golden.

The new blonde look is just another in the series of antics we have come to expect from the flamboyant Finn in the past few years. One can never forget the charitable contribution he made with his bare bottom. Now the mullet has gone blonde to match his girlfriend’s hair color.
