Wolff sustains injury over F1 summer break

It's perhaps not the summer break that Toto Wolff was expecting to have away from F1.

06 August 2023

Toto Wolff has sustained an injury to his arm during the Formula 1 summer break. The Mercedes Team Principal appeared in a photo posted by wife and former Williams F1 development driver Susie Wolff, wearing a cast around his left arm after fracturing his elbow while downhill mountain biking. He picked up the injury on the Monday immediately following the Belgian Grand Prix, but appeared to be in good spirits and unhurt by the accident. Wolff is expected to make a full recovery once F1 gets back underway in the Netherlands at the end of August. This is the second time Wolff has been injured in a cycling accident, after he fractured his elbow, shoulder, collarbone, and wrist during an accident along the Danube River in Hungary in 2014. Check out the photo below.
