Video: Wolff goes crowd surfing to forget Abu Dhabi debacle!

Toto Wolff shied away from the media after Lewis Hamilton's painful defeat in Abu Dhabi, the Mercedes team boss reportedly locked in his office at Yas Marina with the Brackley squad's lawyers pondering his outfit's next legal move.

Mercedes' PR department was equally uncommunicative after Sunday's event, holding back its usual post-race report and team quotes, perhaps for fear of publishing comments that the team would later come to regret.

But as the night grew older, Wolff's anger apparently mellowed, encouraging the Austrian to let off some steam on the dance floor!

And there's always that providential soul present to record the moment and upload the video to YouTube.

Perhaps Toto knows something about the outcome of Mercedes' appeal to the FIA that we have yet to find out…
