Nico Rosberg

Nico Erik Rosberg, son of Keijo "Keke" Erik Rosberg, is about to have his 100th Grand Prix meeting this weekend in Hungary.

I was about to write my "best wishes" to him in 'his' thread...but I couldn't find one...so, I figured I might as well start it off.

What is very interesting is that his father, Keke, took part in 114 Grand Prix races in his entire Formula One career, winning 5 of them - all for Williams from 1982 to 1985 - as well as a World Championship.

It's interesting in that Nico is approaching that number quickly and he's already about to finish off his 6th season in a few months...but without a win to his name...and no win in sight given the current pecking order of the cars.

Some say Nico is a great talent...while others say he hasn't fared well against quality teammates in their prime, so it's hard to judge. Mark Webber is, seemingly, his only reasonable benchmark and that was way back in his rookie season in a car that was one of the worst ones ever constructed by Williams.

What are people's thoughts on Nico Rosberg?

Regardless, Godspeed to Nico on the occassion of his 100th Grand Prix this weekend! :)
 
I'm thinking Andrew Benson isn't a Nico fan...
Nico Rosberg wins F1 title as Lewis Hamilton wins in Abu Dhabi

Arguably Rosberg won the championship using Fangio's philosophy of doing it at the slowest possible speed (not that there's anything wrong with that)
 
It is a bit stupid. Im looking forward to rewriting of f1, as most years theres a case prust could be a single world champion as ge "doesnt deserve" 1986 1989 or 1993

This be might stupid talk. But do you think lewis self imposed ostracisation from rest of the grid & rosberg friendships may have helped shown from above podium & the post season party pictures. because did vettel hint that thought in the closing laps he didnt want to overtake
