F1 News: Sky Commentator Floors Fans With Hilarious Toto Wolff Comment

The Wikipedia comment has now become a joke.

Toto Wolff's recent Wikipedia remark to Max Verstappen's ten in-a-row Grand Prix had been the talk of the town before the Singapore GP weekend. Just as the matter was about to die down, Sky Sports F1 commentator David Croft brought it back to life through a joke aimed at the Toto himself during the Singapore Grand Prix on Sunday. 

The Italian Grand Prix saw Verstappen break the record for the most consecutive Grand Prix at ten wins but, Wolff wasn't letting that achievement pass by without a jibe. Consequently, he insisted that the record of ten wins in a row was just for Wikipedia. However, his comments received severe criticism. 

Yesterday, during the Singapore Grand Prix at the Marina Bay Circuit, both Mercedes drivers Lewis Hamilton and George Russell were aggressively chasing podium finishes in the last few laps of the race. 

Back in the Mercedes garage, Wolff was spotted smiling at the scenario, given that there were chances of both Mercedes cars taking a podium. Or maybe, even because the Red Bulls were far away from securing the first two places. 

Either way, Croft found the right opportunity to crack a joke at the team principal using the Wikipedia jibe as Hamilton and Russell continued their charge. He said:

“I haven’t seen Wolff smile much recently but if they win this I bet he will read the race report on Wikipedia afterwards."

The unexpected joke at a tense time in the last few laps cracked many up. However, the race took a drastic turn when Russell, who was in P3 during the last lap, crashed unexpectedly, thus allowing Hamilton to take over his position. 

Sadly, Russell earned a DNF despite starting the race on the front row. Had he not crashed, he would've earned points for coming third while Hamilton would've finished fourth. As of now, the former stands in 7th place in the Drivers' Standings with 109 points while the latter stands firmly in third with 180 points.
