Where to begin with Toto Wolff? For even casual fans of Formula One, Wolfflooms as a giant. In less than a decade the 48-year-old Austrian has elevated his name to equal the greatest managers in the sport’s history—paralleling legends like Enzo Ferrari, Colin Chapman and Sir Frank Williams. Since becoming a shareholder, Team Principal and CEO of Mercedes-AMG Petronas in 2013, Wolff has galvanized what had been a mediocre midfield team into an unassailable scimitar of domination, capturing 96 of 130 checkered flags and securing 103 pole positions. His team’s current hegemony is unmatched, winning an unequaled six consecutive double (Constructors and Drivers) world championships—the all-time record for F1. His pairing with Lewis Hamilton, whom many consider the greatest driver of all time, has now raised the duo to truly rarefied status.
