Mercedes AMG F1 is always more active than the other teams on social media. During non-race weekends, it is evident that their handle tries to keep its fans engaged with some off-track content.
The Mercedes’ social media handle posted a video called “Speed Dating“. In the video, both the drivers and the Team Principal bared their personal lives to the viewers.
The three of them were asked to describe themselves as a teenager in three words. “Not very good in school, not very good in sports, not very attractive with the girls,” said Toto. While Lewis’ reply was “Daredevil, thrill-seeker, troublemaker”. Finally, the Finn said “rebel, wild and motivated“.

When asked what superpower would the three prefer, all of them had a series of interesting answers. Bottas went with “Teleporting“. “Predicting the future,” said Toto Wolff, and Lewis preferred “Time Travel“.
But when questioned about the weirdest gift they have received, Toto took the cake with his hilarious response. “Shove and Bono leaving a painting with Lewis’ naked back in my office and as per rumors, they left my office giggling a lot,” said the Austrian.
Lewis Hamilton, too, gave an amusing reply saying “Japanese Men’s Underwear“.
The next question was which decade or era would the three choose to drive in apart from the current decade. While Valtteri Bottas went with the 90s, Lewis and Toto went with the 80s and 70s, respectively.
When asked about their pet peeves, Toto said “People lying“. Lewis chose “bad breath” and Bottas went with “being lazy“.
For the question “Favourite Movie,” Lewis gave three namely, Scarface, Coming to America, and Cool Runnings. Bottas opted for “The Wolf of Wall Street” and finally Toto went with an all-time classic, “The Godfather“.
The next question was what the three would do first thing after waking up. Lewis gave a laughable reply by saying, “Well turn the alarm off and go back to sleep.”
