How come drivers take heat for having their official residency in Monaco, but you don't hear squat from the same folks about Bernie? Anyway... the Totonator is not doing too badly for himself.
Autoweek Formula One boss Bernie Ecclestone reportedly worth close to $3 billion
Mercedes F1 team principal Toto Wolff has moved up the rankings in an annual list of the richest people in Switzerland.
Once again Formula One boss and billionaire Bernie Ecclestone tops the sport's representation in the rankings published by the Swiss business magazine Bilanz.
The offices of Ecclestone, 85, are in London, but his official residence is Gstaad, Switzerland, ostensibly for tax reasons, and his fortune is estimated at between $2.5-$2.9 billion.
Another Swiss-based billionaire is Mansour Ojjeh, a shareholder of the McLaren team.
Next up is Michael Schumacher, who is recuperating from brain injuries at his home on the shores of Lake Geneva. Bilanz estimates the great German's fortune at between $700-$800 million.
Some F1 drivers also live in Switzerland, including the current Ferrari driving duo of Kimi Raikkonen and Sebastian Vettel. Bilanz said both of them are worth about $100-$150 million each.
Reportedly richer than both Raikkonen and Vettel, according to the magazine, is the Mercedes team boss and Mercedes and Williams shareholder Toto Wolff.
He lives with his wife Susie in the northeast canton of Thurgau, and through Wolff's various investments he is believed to be worth up to $400 million.
