“If You Can’t Trust the 7X WDC, Then It’s OK”: Lewis Hamilton Resolves Susie Wolff’s Striking Concerns Around Toto’s Fears

Well, if there’s a power couple in the Formula 1 paddock, then it’s got to be Toto and Susie Wolff. Susie, Toto Wolff‘s second wife, has become synonymous with the Austrian, and their relationship has often been the reason so many F1 fans have had their hearts melted on multiple occasions. But given what Toto Wolff has done with Mercedes and how meticulously he operates, it can’t be a surprise to learn that he can be a handful sometimes. But don’t worry people, Lewis Hamilton has come into the clutch once again!

Wolff isn’t as comfortable a driver as he is a manager. Irrespective, he can be termed as an even jittery passenger. We’ve all seen the video of Toto and his wife, Susie, lapping around the iconic Suzuka Circuit with Wolff being a rather frightened onlooker as his wife aced the track. But as it turns out, 7x champion, Hamilton has actually given the Scottish ex-racing driver some solace.

How Lewis Hamilton stopped Toto and Susie Wolff’s marital arguments

By his own admission, Wolff has been someone that has almost coerced his wife from handing over the driving duties to him every time they get into a car. And while in the beginning, it was cumbersome for Susie to abide by, one Lewis Hamilton moment changed her mind.

During Wolff’s appearance on the BBC Radio 4 show ‘Desert Island Discs’, Wolff revealed, “[Susie] said to me that she can live with it since she saw me being full of panic whilst being in the passenger seat with Lewis Hamilton on a race track. If you can’t trust the seven-time world champion, then it’s OK to not trust who is driving. It’s my problem, not the driver’s problem!”

Susie might feel better now that she knows Wolff doesn’t even trust Hamilton’s driving. But for Toto Wolff, the duo is just the same.

Calling Lewis Hamilton and Toto Wolff friends would actually be a massive understatement. In reality, the duo of Wolff and Hamilton has been so potent because of the relationship they were able to forge. However, sometimes, it can get as tedious as a marriage.

GPBlog.com quoted Wolff as saying, “Even if we shout at each other, even if we have this argument, there’s never thought of divorcing, and that’s why I said to him, ‘I don’t want to divorce you and neither do you,'” as he described his relationship with the 38-year-old.
