    The break is finally over!! It's been a while since the last episode, but I've used the time to record a few incredible episodes with really inspiring guests. We're kicking things off with my friend and ex-boss at Mercedes, Toto Wolff.
    We were talking mental health, the current landscape of Formula 1, avoiding burnout as a five time F1 World Champion and how he managed to become team principal at Mercedes AMG Petronas Motorsport F1 Team.

    Nico about Toto: "You are standing on the pole of the peak of Everest, there's nowhere up..."
    Mercedes goes on with four 1-2 in the first four races, an all-time record. TOP!
    Overall, it's the most inspirational podcast I've ever listened to.

      I enjoy these interviews, especially the one with Flavio. Each a Masterclass. Through this portion of the interview was the most striking, where Nico you are buttering up Toto, even now in 2019. How can someone stand on flag pole, that too on Mount Everest. In a way it shows how tall Toto Wolf really is. Great Interview.

      I think for sure they’ll do something like that together at some point and probably laugh and look back with pride at their time together. Yeah they fought a lot but it’ll go down as one of the greatest teammate rivalries ever imo and they’ll both be glad with that. I think they’ll probably end up being mates again, I mean Schumacher used to hate coulthard but they both got on very well as they got older
      However I just don’t think lewis will do it before he retires. It’s kind of too awkward to do until then imo... especially that he’s still at merc and so might hold back on talking about things in detail

    Ever since the lockdown I watched “Drive to survive” on Netflix and being a Canadian I was never big into formula one and I’ve fallen absolutely head over heels for the sport and I really think a lot of it has to do with people like Toto. Watching the episode on him and Mercedes was so powerful and inspiring. The people in this sport are really what makes it unique to me. Thank you for this Nico I’ll have to go back and watch your old races now!

      Don’t know how much you’ve dipped into the history of F1. But if you haven’t already, and since you’re already going to watch old races. I’d suggest some content on Gilles Villeneuve being that he was Canadian. One of the best drivers never to win a world championship, who then had a son who went on to win a world title. Some of Gilles’ old race replays are floating around TH-cam and definitely worth watching. The guy had car control like I’ve never seen before.

    21:50 "Support your kids in an opportunity THEY like. Follow THEM in their passion." Wow--so many parents should learn from Toto here. Chores, household tasks, school--yes, push the kid, that's discipline and teaching them how to be a good person. But when it comes to things that will really determine their life and what they'll love? Let the kid pick it.
    I was/am lucky to have parents who were of this mindset with me, but lots of kids aren't, and have parents who want them to pursue something that the kid his/herself would never want to do.

      ​@@NicoRosberg , I also thought about "Pursuit of excellence". Because in an essence - these people , you including, do just that - they always find the extra bit. The outcome is that you can always learn something new, but you can also never be excellent because there always comes someone else that breaks the records - hence the pursuit bit. Excellence because these people do excel at what they do and it also combines the many areas in life where you can strive to be the best.

And you started at the top with a father as a world champion, but not just sit there and live a luxurious life, no you challenge yourself and other people everyday und did everything what has to be done to be one of the best drivers of your era. And that's what you are, one of the very best!

    Hi Nico, Thankyou for sharing this interview. I love the dynamics between you and Toto. It has been a real insight into understanding success, failures, psychology, mental health and many more. But what really stood out was how you were both open about your vulnerability and short comings. I would love to see you both together again. It is been truly motivating, inspiring and also educational. I've taken so much out of this interview. Thankyou and keep up the hard work.

    I could not imagine the depth of self-reflection and conversation this podcast wound bring, and I'm so happy how great the talk just flows, and how much experience and thought process I can learn and reflect on from your talk, it's amazing!
    I definitely took a lot of reflections and values from both of you, and I'm very happy you made it accessible to us, and I never realized how much depth there are to both of your characters and to Formula 1 in general, I thoroughly enjoyed every second of this podcast and it taught me a lot, and I will definitely rewatch this a few times later on, you guys are legends in all senses of that word

    Toto Wolff is a great leader who had humble beginnings. It actually inspires many people who come from such backgrounds. I could relate myself when he mentioned about his childhood trauma when he and his sister were asked to leave from school.
    Also his leadership style is fantastic, not being a tyranny but rather lead by example. Thank you for sharing this Toto and thank you Nico for bringing him into your podcast!

    Thank you Nico. As a 56 years old new to the sport of F!, I have enjoyed becoming familiar with all the characters involved. As an Australian of course Danial is a favourite but so many are now gaining my respect with impressive skills and talent. However as I have studied the characters and careers it is your performance both in the car and out that I find unchallenged. Of course, both Lewis and yourself are so talented in the car but your closely considered responses particularly immediately after races show such emotional intelligence. You are a very impressive young man and a great role model for teenage boys. As the Mum of two, I would like to thank you for who you are, your character and empathy and your work. Great podcast.

I love his passion. I love his openess. I love his team ethics. I love his passion for putting family first. His wife is a very lucky lady.
    With every interview we see more of who Nico is too, and understand you better. Inspirational. Thank you, and thank you for talking openely and honestly about mental health issues. The majority of us experience hurdles and demons throughout life. Good to hear how you and Toto deal with yours that you experience. We all share the same emotions in different scenarios and environments. Coping mechanisms are so important. So is a close, loyal and supportive circle.

I watch F1 since I was a kid and it has always been my dream to be a part of it and being that it is not possible I still want to see as much as I can and kind off fill my passion for f1 that way.

    Ahh Nico, I only just discovered your podcast, damn! Love it. Am going to catch up with all those I have missed. I was just getting misty-eyed, thinking back to the 6 o'clock car radio news that announced you had retired... and I flew, plastic shopping bag splitting, spilling the contents all over the place, into the house, yelling, "have you heard about Nico Rosberg????" My partner turned, fearful expression on his face, almost whispering "NO!" (he thought you must have died, given my dramatic entrance). "He's RETIRED," I howled. "WHATTTT? You're kidding???" We read and listened to every word mentioned on the subject, for months, in awe. This is brilliant, what you are doing... thank you.

    I love the fact that Toto has the confidence as a leader, to surround himself with people who are willing to say no to him.
    Too many people I’ve met in the corporate world in leadership capacities do not have that capability at all, and the only people who succeed are enablers and yes people who manage upward and tell the senior people only what they want to hear - not the truth.
