The dramatic F1 team bosses’ merry-go-round perplexed each spectator of the pinnacle of motorsport. And amidst this crazy team principal news dump, Mercedes posted a horrifying image of Toto Wolff.

When Binotto made the decision to part ways with Ferrari at the end of 2022, every F1 fan was astonished. Binotto had faced harsh criticism from Ferrari’s board after the 2022 season finished. This eventually led to the news that the Italian was leaving Scuderia. Now, Frederic Vasseur of Alfa Romeo will fill the Prancing Horse’s vacant seat in January as a result of Mattia Binotto‘s resignation.
