Insiders say he was "mildly disturbed."

MONACO — Mercedes team principal Toto Wolff has announced he will be auctioning off his extensive collection of private Lewis Hamilton memorabilia, citing "the need to make room for more Russell and Antonelli stuff."

The surprise announcement came during a quiet press event, where Wolff stood beside a velvet-draped table covered in signed gloves, custom jewelry boxes, seven small vegan candles, and what appeared to be a lock of hair labeled "Silverstone 2021."

“It’s time,” said Wolff, voice cracking slightly. “I kept the gloves. The suits. The sunglasses he forgot on race weekends. Even the reusable water bottle with his initials. But now, I need emotional shelf space.”

The auction, hosted by Sotheby’s and titled “From Seven to Heaven: The Wolff Collection,” is expected to attract collectors, superfans, and several former lovers. Items include handwritten motivational notes from Hamilton (“You got this, Toto. Vibes only”) and a seat cushion from the Mercedes sim rig engraved with “Sir Lewis Sat Here.”

One centerpiece of the collection is a carbon fiber box containing dozens of partially used earplugs “from heated debriefs,” each tagged with the specific GP where they were deployed. Another highlight: a velvet-lined case holding Hamilton’s Monaco paddock pass from 2019.”

Wolff maintains this isn’t about bitterness.

“I’m not heartbroken,” he insisted. “Lewis moved on. So must I. Also, my wife says the memorabilia room has become ‘deeply weird.”

Still, not everyone is convinced. “I think this is Toto’s version of a breakup playlist,” said F1 journalist Gustavo Ortiz.

Hamilton has yet to comment on the auction, though insiders say he was “mildly disturbed."

Russell, meanwhile, is said to be “quietly watching” the entire event. One source claimed he showed up to Toto’s office with a signed pair of sunglasses and a note reading, “For your new collection.”

The auction is expected to raise over $3 million, with proceeds reportedly going toward “team development, garage storage, and potentially commissioning a George Russell statue made of W13 suspension arms.”

Fans can view the items online starting next week, with live bidding set for the evening before the Miami Grand Prix. In a final emotional gesture, Wolff will reportedly close the event with a toast using Hamilton’s leftover sparkling water from the 2020 Turkish GP.

As the Wolff era of Hamilton fandom draws to a dramatic close, one thing is clear: healing comes not from forgetting—but from auctioning off your pain.
