Mercedes driver Valtteri Bottas has enjoyed a fairly successful 2019 season, despite losing to teammate Lewis Hamilton. The Finnish driver has been having a great season, which was far better than the pitiful performance of 2018. Of course, the saying goes, behind every great man, is a great woman, and perfectly describes Valtteri Bottas’ wife, Emilia. Emilia Pikkarainen [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emilia_Bottas] is a former professional swimmer and holds several Finnish records. Her records include the 50 meters butterfly, 100 meters butterfly, 200 meters butterfly, and 200 meters individual medley. Valtteri Bottas’ wife was born on October 11, 1992, and aside from swimming, she is a horse-riding enthusiast. Emilia Bottas even pursued this passion by taking part in a number of showjumping competitions. The Finn even represented Finland at the Olympic Games on three occasions. Namely, in 2008, 2012 and 2016, though she did not clinch any medals. [https://www.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/images-48-3.jpg] In her first competition, she was just 15 years old and competed in the 100m butterfly ranking 46th. Then, in the 2012 Olympics, she did the 100m and 200m butterfly and the 200m individual medley. During the next edition of the Olympics, she was part of the 4 x 100m medley relay. Emilia and Valtteri started dating back in 2010 and kept their relationship strong, before tying the knot in September 2016 in Helsinki. Admittedly, the two do not have any children yet, and there are no immediate plans either. For now, though, the Finnish driver is aiming for a 5th win this season as he aims to consolidate 2nd in the championship. He is contracted to Mercedes next season, however, she won’t be by his side, because the couple divorced [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valtteri_Bottas#Personal_life] ahead of the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix weekend.

<h2>Mercedes: 2021 Latest News, Results, Drivers, and Car Updates</h2>
German manufacturing giant, Mercedes-Benz, first got involved in racing back in the 1930s and 1940s. After the Second World War, they returned in 1954, in what is now known as Formula One. However, they pulled out as a manufacturer after 1955, remaining only as a supplier.

The team are commonly referred to as the 'Silver Arrows' due to its distinct and iconic silver livery.

Their exit was a direct response to the 1955 Le Mans Disaster. They would be coaxed back as a constructor, only from 2010 onwards.

The team have announced <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/valtteri-bottas/">Valtteri Bottas</a> as their 2021 driver with the other seat yet to be filled, with <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/lewis-hamilton/">Lewis Hamilton</a>'s contract being extended as the most probable outcome.
<h2>How much does Mercedes earn from F1?</h2>
Clinching the prized Constructors' Championship entails a lot of prestige, but more importantly, a bigger paycheck. Despite spending an absurd amount of money on car development, it ultimately pays off for Mercedes when they decimate the competition on the track. According to a <a href="https://www.forbes.com/sites/chrissmith/2019/11/26/formula-one-team-values-ferrari-mercedes/#261d6d611ddb" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">report</a>, the Brackley-based outfit earned a handsome $451 million in revenue for the 2019 season.
<h2>How much is the Mercedes F1 team worth?</h2>

<h2><strong>What are Mercedes' on-track a</strong><b>chievements?</b></h2>
During their first two years in Formula One, there was no Constructors' Championship. It was only introduced from 1958 onwards. However, they did win four races out of a nine-race 1954 calendar. Those wins came at the French Grand Prix, the German Grand Prix, the Swiss Grand Prix, and the Spanish Grand Prix.

A year later, they would go on to win five out of seven races. These wins came at Argentina, Belgium, Netherlands, Great Britain, and Italy.

After their return in 2010, there were off to a shaky start, having been away for so long. However, since 2013, things have been picking up, and they began to dominate from 2014, which saw the inception of the turbo-hybrid era in Formula 1.

Mercedes have won every single Drivers' and Constructors' Championship on offer since 2014. The team have won 115 races out of 227 races.

<strong>History</strong>

The Formula One World Championship first started back in 1950. The very first F1 champion was Italy's Guiseppe Farina who raced for Alfa Romeo.

The sport has had 33 different champions in its history and a few of them are multiple championship winners. Currently, the driver with the most championships is <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/michael-schumacher/">Michael Schumacher</a> with 7 under his belt. However, <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/f1/mercedes">Mercedes</a> driver <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/lewis-hamilton/">Lewis Hamilton</a> will be eager to overhaul that. Hamilton currently holds 6 World Championships and stands on the cusp of equalling Michael Schumacher's record at the end of the season.

<h3><strong>Valtteri Bottas 2022: Net Worth, Salary, and Endorsements</strong></h3>
Finnish driver Valtteri Bottas made his F1 debut with <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/f1/williams/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Williams</a> in 2013. He would go on to race for them until the 2016 season. Suddenly, in the wake of <a href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/nico-rosberg/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Nico Rosberg's</a> shock retirement, the Finn found himself drafted to Mercedes forthwith.

Bottas is on course to completing his 5th season for Mercedes in 2021. However, after a rather bitter-sweet campaign with the Brackley outfit, Bottas decided to head back to the mid-field in 2022; The Finn replaced Kimi Raikkonen at Alfa Romeo.

<h3><b>Valtteri Bottas: Stats &amp; On-Track Achievements</b></h3>
He scored his first set of points at the 2013 <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Grand_Prix" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">United States Grand Prix</a> with an 8th place finish. He then followed it up with his maiden podium in Austria 2014 coupled with two back-to-back podiums in Silverstone and Hockenheim.

The top step of the podium beckoned in 2017 at the Russian Grand Prix, his first of 10 wins in his entire F1 career so far. However, he underwent a dry spell in 2018 without reaching the top step at all. He came close in Azerbaijan, but a heartbreaking puncture rained all over his parade.

In 2019, he was able to match Lewis Hamilton in the early part of the season. While his win counter dried up a little over the remainder of the season, he was still quick enough to keep pace. Despite not clinching the World Championship, Bottas had his best year in F1 in 2019, winning 4 Grand Prix. However, he was back to playing the supporting role to Hamilton in 2020 and 2021 amidst rival threats from Max Verstappen.

Now, after years of playing the role of a wingman, Bottas is finally starting to show glimpses of his true pace at Alfa Romeo.

Bottas' helmet is pretty synonymous with most F1 fans these days. The Finn's lid features a dark background with splashes of white and blue to accentuate his Finnish background. Interestingly, Valtteri's helmet is non-symmetrical, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kPgfq4xReN4" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">which is the style he prefers</a>.

Bottas is <a href="https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/4009772/valtteri-bottas-girlfriend-tiffany-cromwell-f1-wife-emilia-mercedes/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">currently dating Australian road cyclist Tiffany Cromwell</a>. The Finn was <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emilia_Pikkarainen" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">previously married</a> to Finnish professional swimmer Emilia Pikkarainen for 3 years before calling it quits in late 2019.

Valtteri Bottas

Valtteri Bottas 2022: Net Worth, Salary, and Endorsements Finnish driver Valtteri Bottas made his F1 debut with Williams in 2013. He would go on to race for them until the 2016 season. Suddenly, in the wake of Nico Rosberg&#8217;s shock retirement, the Finn found himself drafted to Mercedes forthwith. Bottas is on course to completing his 5th season for Mercedes in 2021. However, after a rather bitter-sweet campaign with the Brackley outfit, Bottas decided to head back to the mid-field in 2022; The Finn replaced Kimi Raikkonen at Alfa Romeo.

He then followed it up with his maiden podium in Austria 2014 coupled with two back-to-back podiums in Silverstone and Hockenheim. The top step of the podium beckoned in 2017 at the Russian Grand Prix, his first of 10 wins in his entire F1 career so far. However, he underwent a dry spell in 2018 without reaching the top step at all. He came close in Azerbaijan, but a heartbreaking puncture rained all over his parade. In 2019, he was able to match Lewis Hamilton in the early part of the season. While his win counter dried up a little over the remainder of the season, he was still quick enough to keep pace. Despite not clinching the World Championship, Bottas had his best year in F1 in 2019, winning 4 Grand Prix. However, he was back to playing the supporting role to Hamilton in 2020 and 2021 amidst rival threats from Max Verstappen. Now, after years of playing the role of a wingman, Bottas is finally starting to show glimpses of his true pace at Alfa Romeo. Bottas&#8217; helmet is pretty synonymous with most F1 fans these days. The Finn&#8217;s lid features a dark background with splashes of white and blue to accentuate his Finnish background. Interestingly, Valtteri&#8217;s helmet is non-symmetrical, which is the style he prefers. Bottas is currently dating Australian road cyclist Tiffany Cromwell. The Finn was previously married to Finnish professional swimmer Emilia Pikkarainen for 3 years before calling it quits in late 2019.
