Valtteri Bottas presents his car made for the 'Australian lifestyle'

Valtteri Bottas is certainly the most Australian of the Finnish drivers! À the occasion of Australian Grand Prix, which competes this weekend on the Melbourne circuit, the driver Sauber is featured in a humorous advertisement for Uber Carshare, a car-sharing service.

Bottas presents his car, perfectly adapted to the “famous Australian lifestyle”. If the car has a bike rack and roof bars, some additions are 100% Australian! For example, Valtteri Bottas can store his flip-flops there, enjoy a pie oven, and the headrests are designed to ventilate his now famous mullet cut.

Let's not forget the BRS, for “Bug Reduction System”, a simple diffuser aimed at repelling insects, which are extremely present in Australia. However, the Finnish pilot will be, as he himself says, “too busy driving [his] first car”, this is why this second car will be available free of charge on the Uber Carshare service, during the Australian GP weekend.

In any case, Valtteri Bottas once again shows his self-deprecation, and continues to cultivate a much more fun image since his arrival in the structure of Hinwil in 2022. And seeing the reactions on social networks, this new advert works perfectly!

Let's all hope that he won't miss his 100% Australian car too much when he gets behind the wheel of the C44 for the first free practice sessions on Friday at 2:20 a.m. French time!

Not sure that his mullet cut makes him move faster behind the wheel of his Steak... obviously faster than this typically Aussie UTE with a V8 engine!
