“The only one who can come close is Max Verstappen”- Nico Rosberg on undisputed Lewis Hamilton
“The only one who can come close is Max Verstappen”- Nico Rosberg claims that nobody can touch Lewis Hamilton except the Dutchman.
Nico Rosberg was probably the last challenge to Lewis Hamilton in the ongoing hybrid era, and even he took retirement surprisingly after winning his first championship title.
Rosberg claims that Hamilton’s winning streak after his retirement doesn’t prove anything and he always knew that the Briton was among the best of all time.
“I already knew how good he was. For the outside world, it is now a confirmation that he is the best of all time, also in terms of a number of titles. That I beat him in the same car gives me additional confirmation of my success,” Rosberg said to Augsburger Allgemeine.
“I already knew how good he was. For the outside world, it is now a confirmation that he is the best of all time and several titles. That I beat him in the same car gives me additional confirmation of my success,” Rosberg said.
Lewis Hamilton will maintain dominance.
Rosberg further opines that Hamilton will remain unearthed even in 2021, except Max Verstappen could challenge him for the title, and maybe Sergio Perez, if Red Bull provides a good car.
“I already knew how good he was. For the outside world, it is now a confirmation that he is the best of all time and several titles. That I beat him in the same car gives me additional confirmation of my success,” Rosberg says.
Rosberg then mentions Valtteri Bottas, from whom he has little expectations as in last four years the Finnish has failed to challenge his counterpart even once, though they compete on the same machinery.
“Every year that he doesn’t make it his chances get smaller,” Rosberg concludes.
