Wolff tells critics to ‘watch Teletubbies or Mickey Mouse not F1’ as he defends Mercedes’ strategy
Toto Wolff rebuked claims that Mercedes favours certain drivers, specifically George Russell and rookie Kimi Antonelli. He told detractors they should watch programmes like Teletubbies or Mickey Mouse rather than follow Formula 1, arguing the criticism misrepresents the team’s approach. Wolff maintained that the team’s driver decisions are based on performance and long‑term planning and future success.
