Paired with his mustache, Bottas has a striking look with his new style as he shared a video of the transformation on Twitter.

He is currently in Melbourne, Australia, relaxing after the F1 season finished in Abu Dhabi on November 20.

Bottas is with his partner Tiffany Cromwell as she is from the country.

Being in the country must have given him the inspiration to go for the mullet, as it is a common style there.

In the video he shared on Twitter titled #offseason, it starts with him having a coffee with Cromwell and her suggesting that he does not fit in the couple’s surroundings.

She asked him: “Well how are you going to do that (fit in)?”

To which Bottas replied: “I think I’m going to need to change my style.”

Cromwell then responded by asking: “What do you mean?'”, before Bottas answered: “You’ll see.”

The video then cuts to him in the barbershop as he is transformed with the mullet haircut and new outfit.

He is wearing a Victoria Bitter lager vest and matching shorts with a bottle of the traditional Australian drink in hand.

The Alfa Romeo driver finished 10th in the Drivers Championship last season.

The next F1 campaign is due to begin on March 5 next year with the Bahrain GP.
