Bottas𒊎 turned up at the launch of Alfa Romeo’s new car and pre-season testing rocking a ne♎w mullet and moustache, a look he acquired in Australia during the winter break. 

The Finn🉐 even ran a hilarious one-off helmet design for testing that matched his haircut. 

But Bottas explained that “company policies” at Mercedes would have prevented him from pulling off such a look when he was teammates with168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史: Lewis Hamilton between 2017 and 2021. 

However, at Alfa Romeo, Bottas feels he has the fr🍌ee📖dom to express himself. 

"Now I feel like I can trꦑuly be who I am, for sure there's a bit of a difference,” Bottas said. 

"I think company policies might be 🌺a bit different in differen🦋t workplaces let's say.

"Some things might be a bit more restricted, but I think it's time and getting older as well, all the skills and learning F1 has g💧iven me, you eventually just learn sometimes not to take things too seriously, especially yourself.

"I imagineꦇ I would not have been allowed [to grow the mullet at Mercedes], so that's one example.”

When asked what the highlight⛦ of his off-season was, Bottas replied: “Getting the mullet. 

“A big highlight of my life, probabꦬly. For now it's staying. It feels very much part of me.🥃"
