Mourning the loss of Lewis Hamilton‘s 2021 world championship, Toto Wolff made an appearance for a press conference on December 16. To match the emotion, Toto had the perfect outfit- an all-black turtleneck-jacket combination. He told that the team would not challenge FIA’s controversial decision in court but let his disappointment known. The outfit, coupled with Wolff’s deadpan expression, evoked mixed emotions among fans back then. The look has made a return as Red Bull boss Christian Horner‘s similar appearance surfaced online. Resultantly, the fanbase of both team principals locked horns while deciding who pulled off the look better.
The rivalry between Red Bull and Mercedes is perhaps the biggest in the modern F1 era. When Mercedes was at the top of their abilities, Red Bull slowly emerged as their biggest challenger. Now that Red Bull is the champion, the Silver Arrows are striving to be their biggest contenders.

While the drivers of both teams slug it out on the racetrack, their team bosses do outside of it. Neither Wolff nor Horner miss out on any opportunity to turn each other down, often getting into a war of words. The two super successful team principals have an army of fans behind them as well, that is ever ready to have their backs.
The opportunity to display their loyalty showed up recently as a Twitter user asked who pulled the turtleneck look better. Needless to say, there wasn’t a clear winner.
Have a look at some reactions:
