Well-heeled guests of the Hotel Olden in Gstaad can now savour a luscious Cappuccino with a twist.

The quaint but luxurious chalet-type hotel has been owned for years by former F1 supremo Bernie Ecclestone, whose life and times in the sport are chronicled in the recently released docu-series 'Lucky'.

To help promote the 8-part documentary, the Hotel Olden's resident barista has taken coffee art to a new level, burning the promotional poster of 'Lucky' and thus Bernie's face into the foamy milk of every guest's cappuccino.

As 'Lucky' director Manish Pandey tweeted when posting the picture hereabove, "8 cups of this and ANYONE could run F1"!

Phillip van Osten

Motor racing was a backdrop from the outset in Phillip van Osten's life. Born in Southern California, Phillip grew up with the sights and sounds of fast cars thanks to his father, Dick van Osten, an editor and writer for Auto Speed and Sport and Motor Trend. Phillip's passion for racing grew even more when his family moved to Europe and he became acquainted with the extraordinary world of Grand Prix racing. He was an early contributor to the monthly French F1i Magazine, often providing a historic or business perspective on Formula 1's affairs. In 2012, he co-authored along with fellow journalist Pierre Van Vliet the English-language adaptation of a limited edition book devoted to the great Belgian driver Jacky Ickx. He also authored "The American Legacy in Formula 1", a book which recounts the trials and tribulations of American drivers in Grand Prix racing. Phillip is also a commentator for Belgian broadcaster Be.TV for the US Indycar series.
