Mercedes team boss Toto Wolff says it is “unbelievable” that Lewis Hamilton reached 91 career wins and equalled Michael Schumacher’s record.
At the Eifel Grand Prix Lewis Hamilton equalled Michael Schumacher’s all-time Formula 1 career wins record. After the race Michael’s son Mick presented Hamilton with one of his father’s 2012 Mercedes racing helmets. Toto Wolff gives his comments on Lewis’ amazing achievement.
“It is unbelievable that Lewis has reached those 91 wins,” said the Austrian after the race.
“For me, Michael stands above all. He is an icon, and personally, equalling that record and us equaling the Ferrari record last year is almost surreal.
“Records are there to be broken and I think that is what Michael said as well.
“Lewis is still on his journey, but maybe there is somebody in nursery or school that will someday go for the Lewis record as well, and that is how it should be,” concluded Wolff.
