The Brazilian GP brought with it a lot of memorable moments from on-track duels to radio battles. Although Lewis Hamilton took the spotlight with his victory in Sao Paulo, Twitter has its focus on someone else. Toto Wolff may steal his driver’s limelight by giving the world some requisite meme-worthy content.
It was the climax of the race. Max Verstappen and Lewis Hamilton scuffled wheel to wheel for the lead. After some very controversial moments, in the blink of an eye, Hamilton robbed his rival of the win. With a weekend’s- worth of frustration building up in the Mercedes garage, the pressure was finally out.
With controversies and FIA rulings backing the Silver Arrows against the wall, the win was a very defining moment for the team. And Toto Wolff let his emotions loose after the overtake. With an almost f-you moment to the FIA and Red Bull, Wolff pointed to the camera with great fury.

Although the team principal was really serious, the moment was too hilarious for F1 twitter to ignore.

The winning meme had to go to an F1 champion himself. Damon Hill linked Wolff’s anger to the rear wing controversy that dominated the weekend.

The others, however, were just as hilarious. With the weekend having so much to talk about, Wolff’s reaction pretty much defined Mercedes’ Brazilian GP. What Wolff tagged a “friendly hello to the race director” soon took over the internet.

You put a finger on our wing, you put a finger on our whole team, our team is our family and when you put a finger on our family, the whole family will put a finger on you!

Another close winner to Hill was a positive spin on the meme. Quoting Hamilton’s positive take on inspiring the younger generation, this stood out from the rest!

Others put the Austrian in a more day-to-day situation.

The Mercedes boss takes over the Brazilian GP weekend
Although Wolff took the internet by storm for his reaction, it wasnt the only time it happened this weekend. In fact, during the podium celebration, the heat and tensions of the day got to Wolff. In yet another tired moment, Wolff simply said: “F*ck the mask.”
Fuck the mask- Toto Wolff #BrazilianGP pic.twitter.com/gkI45AQa08

Looks like the masks and the gloves are off! Christian Horner might want to sleep with an eye open tonight!
Even after Hamilton’s successful charge during the sprint racing, a rather flustered Wolff took over the internet as well.

However, we don’t blame the team boss. After witnessing the weekend from a distance Wolff’s front row experience only reflects what everyone has been feeling while watching the Brazilian GP unfold.

Wolff is all strapped in for the final three races of the season as Mercedes looks as powerful as ever. Now driven by a passion for the double title, the doors haven’t been closed on the Brackley team just yet.
