Valtteri Bottas visited Brackley one last time last week to pay tribute to all those at Mercedes who contributed to his success with the German outfit since 2017.
The Finn collected ten wins overall with his former team but contributed massively to Mercedes' success in the F1 world championship in the past five years, as well as to accomplishments of his teammate Lewis Hamilton.
Before moving on to Alfa Romeo Racing where he will extend his career in F1, Bottas sat down one last time with Mercedes team boss Toto Wolff to review in numbers his achievements with the Brackley squad.
And those numbers are self-explanatory but for good measure, Bottas inscribed them on the helmet he used in F1's season finale in Abu Dhabi and which he donated to Wolff as a reminder of his five-year presence at the championship winning team.
