Toto Wolff to miss more F1 races in the future as he details Mercedes succession plan

Wﷺhile Wolff has no plans to relinquish his role as team boss or Mercedes - or reduce his involv🍌ement at race weekends - he is looking to the future.

“A stone could fall on my head and how does it look afterwards? That is why I would like to see myself in a fไew years maybe not going to 24 races, and just to 15.
“But that is many years away. I see myse🌠lf in this role for a long time. I cannot imagine doing something else.”
Wolff also revealed that he considered quitting the sport in 2020 after bei🔥ng tired “mentally and physically”.
“I really struggled in 2020 to make a decision on whether I wanted to stay active iꦆn t💖he sport or to be a shareholder and go back to my finance world. I was tired, mentally and physically, but then I came to the realisation that I wanted to continue.
“I feel I am contributing to the team in the crossover wo🌜rld of finance and motor racing, and I have a passion for both, and that is why I continue to do it.”
