Wolff joins Verstappen: "With all due respect, that's none of your business"

Max Verstappen was present as the number three of the 2020 World Championship at the FIA gala, which took place online this season because of all the coronavirus restrictions. Prior to the presentation of the awards, there was a press conference, but the Dutchman received a question that did not really appeal to him.
One of the journalists present was curious to know exactly where the protagonists were at that time. Lewis Hamilton and Valtteri Bottas answered, but Max Verstappen and Toto Wolff refused.
Verstappen refuses
The seven-time world champion was during the livestream at the Mercedes factory in Brixworth, while his Finnish teammate was at the Automobile Club in Monaco (near his home). Verstappen made it clear that he was not interested in the question.
"Where are you then? Would you like to know what I am doing tonight, tomorrow and during my holiday? Maybe you even want to participate? Let me know! Maybe I can send you photos or a video, so that you know exactly what I do during the winter break," said Verstappen, who tried to end with a smile not to come across as too negative.
Wolff agrees with Max
As team boss of Mercedes, Wolff was also present and he agreed with Verstappen's point of view. "I agree with Max. With all due respect, but that's none of your business," said the 48-year-old Austrian.
