Toto Wolff has heaped praised upon one of his Mercedes team's newest hires who was snatched away from Red Bull.
The two teams are rivals on the track and that relationship is reflected between their respective team principals. Christian Horner has been the happier of the two so far this season, though, with his Red Bull outfit dominating the championship while Mercedes have struggled to perform.
But Wolff has managed to get one over his counterpart this year. Prior to the start of the season, it was confirmed that former Red Bull chief operating officer and HR director of many years, Jayne Poole, had been hired by Mercedes as a special adviser.
