Rosberg kicked Schumacher's butt so yes, he has some talent.

I was extra impressed by Rosberg because he figured out how to beat Hamilton even though he wasn't as quick in outright pace. Sure, Hamilton suffered more than his share of car issues that year, but Rosberg got into his head and parked there all season.

That was exactly it and Rosberg wasn't afraid to rough up Lewis on the track and run him hard.

Nico learned from the master, and lulu is STILL pissed off about it. 2016 was the perfect storm for Rosberg because he picked up right where he left the year before winning a string of races, that never gave Hamilton a moments rest. Could Brittney have done it again? Probably not because i think Hamilton would have picked up on it and handled the pressure (a little bit) better, Toto would have put his foot down on the mind games and nico is no Schumacher, i don't think he had it in him to be THAT person for the rest of his career. Micheal played with people's heads like the rest of us breath, and he did it even when he didn't have to

Nico wasn't afraid to break a plate or two.

Hence, why he retired. He basically gave everything he had at the expense of his family in 2016. He trained and prepared like never before and I think, in order to continue to stay on top of Hamilton, it would have become not just physically but mentally exhausting as well.

Yup, that was my point. But it would have been fun seeing Rosberg, bitter, pot bellied, balding, unshaven sitting around the house in a stained wife beater throwing empty Coors silver bullets at the kids screaming about the one time he beat "that guy". .

Mercedes decided to renew Bottas's dog license for another year.

Perez is out at Racing Point. Don't have a link but it was on the F1 IG feed. I assume Vettel will replace him.

Makes me wonder if he doesn't have a deal lined up already. Him and Hulk at Haas, especially with Perez money coming in would be quite an upgrade. Or would a Red Bull consider him and put Albon and Gasly at AT

Or would a Red Bull consider him and put Albon and Gasly at AT RedBull would be smart to hire Perez. Problem is if they did it they would be admitting their young driver program managed by Marko has failed. Marko will never admit failure so Perez will not be in a RedBull.

The Evil One wasted no time saying Gasly's win won't translate to a trip back to a big chair at RB. He's lucky Ocon's in the 1st year of a 2 year contract over at the yellow team.
