    Toto Wolff has worked hard to be where he is today. Whatever you think of him, he has made Mercedes one of the best teams ever to have been in F1, their dominance has been legendary. He will go down as one of the greats of F1...

    This was pointless. I wanted to know about the two hedge funds he started and his path from amateur race car driver to hedge fund manager. It's easy to become a team principal when you have $400 million in the bank to buy/start a team, but it would have been nice to know about his path from $0 to $400 million.
