Nico Rosberg retired from Formula One just days after winning the world title in 2016. In this BBC documentary he explains his reasons for his decision and his hopes for building a future in the business world
I am sure all of us who had beaten Schumacher and Hamilton in the same team would retire right away. I respect his decision and I understand him. He has a family to take care of, his social life is also quite active, whereas Hamilton is all about racing, doesn't have a family, kids etc. It's very difficult to beat someone who is so dedicated to what he is doing. Did Nico had his fair share of luck - yes he did, I don't deny that, but a world title takes a whole year, not just one race so fair play to him.
@@efostefanow Lewis only drives in a dominant team mclaren cheated between 2007 - 2009 schumacher schooled him in monza in a weak car plus 8.6 millions viewers stopped watching formula 1 in the uk. Lewis's all hype that's all.
Thanks Nico, so great to hear commentary from the drivers perspective. Individual sports leave no room for excuses! Fantastic to see you’ve transitioned to family life, great to see you so happy!
that Great champion you are only one, you retired through the big door defeating one of the best pilots in history and the best your life is as it should be, with your family and away from the cannibalism and ego of formula 1
go back to driving and racing Nico. Even your father Keke said, it was such a lucky break to be able to get into Formula 1. And the extra 20, 30 million will definitely come in handy to your future life. Give it a good thorough thought Nico.
Call me crazy, but this was kinda....anti climatic. I mean, it's a bucket of cold water. He is like, yeah I'm trying to make it somewhere else after being at the absolute top of something. It's just crazy to think about it, I don't know why. But I got kinda bummed. Even more when he talked about money (I would expect that he is set for life, but he probably had to lower his standard of living even though he achieved his dream; and it really bus me out that he basically rejected being one of the highest earners in the sport world) The fact that he is just trying to start out getting some credibility made me a little sad. It might be just a way that he wanted to be depicted, but I feel that this is "okay so I achieved the thing I worked on for over 26 years and now, well now I don't really know what to do next". I got like a "never ever achieve your dreams, because chasing them it's what keeps you going" vibe. Glad he gets to spent more time with his family, but man, this was not as wholesome as I expected it to be.
@Crow Killer Why would I be jealous of him, it's his life. I don't like the way he clickbaits his videos on RU-vid and also he constantly compares and bashes the drivers who are better than him (because he's jealous)
I literally try and try to watch Nico's stuff and stuff about him but literally after a short 30s I remember that he's a complete toss pot and my ears and eyes nearly bleed
Agreed, yeah? And then meeting with Chris Froome, yeah? possibly the least interesting meeting of two 'personalities' that I've ever seen, yeah? And he dresses like my Dad
rosberg tried to beat Hamilton for 18 years, he realize by himself was impossible ( finally Mercedes Benz decided to help rosberg with Hamilton racing crew) rosberg was so mentally exhausted ,. couldn't live like that anymore so he quit? when winning?... , ....... just imagine ( he forfeit millions of dollars on a new racing contract ) talking about DUMB DUMB!! ........ that is what being afraid "looks like" ......Doubts?. 2016 lewis had more podiums and more wins ..than rosberg
Nico's crappy driving, poor sportsmanship and Lewis' bad luck handed an undeserving clown a championship. He should just change the nappies and shut his mouth.
You have to keep in mind, Hamilton is single and everything, whereas Rosberg has a wife and two kids, and therefore a lot more to lose. To say he pussied out of f1 for that reason, is just unempathic
jenson button was even more boring.couldn't give an intense battle for the driver's title again LH. unlike nico who gave many close fights against LH for many years.
