Currently leading his team in the Extreme E category, Nico Rosberg is still a familiar face for Formula 1, despite his retirement at the end of 2016. The German has hung up his helmet for five seasons now and this is striking, if we think that he is the same age as Lewis Hamilton and four less than Fernando Alonso, the most experienced driver on the starting grid. Unlike other illustrious predecessors, including Niki Lauda and Michael Schumacher, Rosberg never intended to return, not even for a test session, to a Formula 1 car. his activity as a never banal commentator for the German, English and Italian editions of Sky.
Obviously the German followed with great interest the epilogue of the 2021 championship, a historic edition that broke the Mercedes hegemony in the drivers’ championship and that interrupted Hamilton’s streak of consecutive successes, which went on from the title of Rosberg. Asked by F1–insiderprovided his vision of the forces on the field in the world championship which will start in less than twenty days from Bahrain: “First of all it was important that Lewis continued. He wants the title back and therefore the duel between him and Max will certainly be very exciting. Unlike what I did, Verstappen will give Lewis a chance to take revenge“Rosberg joked, alluding to the missed rematch of the 2016 World Cup, before concluding: “You can see with the naked eye how strong Mercedes is, but Red Bull will certainly follow suit ”.
