To stay connected with the world of motorsport, Nico Rosberg after retiring from Formula 1 started his own YouTube channel and established an Extreme E Racing team.
Rosberg is a huge fan of electric vehicles and an avid car enthusiast and owns an incredible collection of cars. He even recently added the $2 Million Rimac Nevera to his garage which is customised for the 2016 world champion.
In one of his videos back in 2018, he collaborated with 2-time world champion Mika Hakkinen to get a feel of the exclusive model of McLaren P1 which the Finnish driver owns.
Rosberg got to try his hands out on the incredible machinery as he took Hakkinen for a drive on the streets of Monaco.
While driving Hakkinen asked about Rosberg’s future plan, the business side of his plans and what interests him.
