She also talked about her husband Toto’s ability to run Mercedes as one of the most successful racing teams in history.
“I am definitely inspired by how he runs the organisation,” she explained.

“He surrounds himself by very talented people, he’s not scared to be challenged. He wants bright people around him who do challenge him.
“That’s something which I definitely learned from watching him over so many years. It’s one thing trying to be successful as a team and get to the front but it’s another thing trying to maintain that success.
“They obviously had a huge challenge in that they’d won title after title and how do you keep a group of individuals together and motivated.
“That’s been one of his great challenges but I’m just inspired watching what he does,” Susie concluded.
