“I have it printed out”– Toto Wolff, DTS Season 5. Toto Wolff practiced his teaching skills to explain to the other Team Principals the dangers of porpoising. However, the Mercedes CEO and TP lost the chance to teach an F1 graduate at another institution as he chose Harvard over the London Business School. But who is this F1 graduate? And how did this situation arise?

Toto Wolff has been successfully managing the Mercedes F1 Team for 10 years now and has brought a lot of success to the team with his vision. Earlier this year, it was announced that Toto Wolff will serve as a guest lecturer at Harvard Business School to share his visionary experience with MBA students. Being a successful investor, Team Boss, and now a Billionaire, Wolff’s contribution will be invaluable.

While Toto Wolff decided to take the route of a professor, Former F1 driver Nicholas Latifi chose the student route after leaving the Williams team last season. News recently broke out that Latifi signed up to pursue MBA at London Business School. The Canadian advised that he always had a keen interest in the World of Business and would’ve pursued his interest sooner or later in life.

According to his latest Instagram post, Nicholas Latifi said, “Knowing that I wouldn’t be behind the wheel of a race car this year, I had obviously begun to think of what could be next for me, whether that involved racing or something completely different. I decided that for the immediate future, I wanted to take some time and pursue a different avenue and focus on another path. With that in mind, and knowing I might be taking a break from racing, I decided that I want to pursue an MBA degree and focus on something that would transform the next phase of my life.”

Only if Latifi and Wolff were at the same business school, it would’ve been interesting to see how the Team Principal and Driver situation panned out in a business school environment. Nevertheless, Nicholas Latifi revealed the troubles that he had to face in order to get into a Business School.
