Lewis Hamilton makes honest admission over Toto Wolff

Lewis Hamilton has admitted that he loves the fighting spirit of Toto Wolff. There is an ongoing war of words between Wolff and Christian Horner, as they  go through the whole gamut of emotions. Last week was a case in point, particularly for Wolff, who, in his own words admitted that the Sao Paulo weekend was a "triumph through adversity". First there was accepting the fact that due to the surprising degradation of the Mercedes power unit, the team had to bite the bullet and give Hamilton a new ICE, thereby incurring a 5-place grid penalty... at a track that favoured Red Bull. The investigation into the British driver's rear wing and his subsequent disqualification from the qualifying results and therefore having to start the Sprint from the back. The race the war of words continued, with Wolff effectively warning that the days of diplomacy were over.

"I love seeing Toto's fighting spirit," said Hamilton when asked about Wolff's attitude as the Qatar weekend got underway.   "It makes me so happy. There's a shot I saw from the last race and it just made me laugh inside, it was so good.   "If he just cared less and was just chilled, it just wouldn't be. that fire and passion is a part of our infrastructure and our ecosystem and it trickles down from him.   "He is the leader of the team. You want that in your boss, someone that's out there go-getting and pushing and chasing every millisecond and with you along the way.   "I love that he stands for what he thinks is right. We've grown hugely closer over these years."
