"This guy is so jealous of Lewis Hamilton it’s crazy"– F1 Twitter bashes Nico Rosberg for saying "Lewis just lost his way out there" after Friday practice sessions in Monaco

Nico Rosberg got a bashing from F1 Twitter after he said “Lewis just lost his way out there” while comparing him to George Russell.

Lewis Hamilton didn’t have the best start to the 2022 season. Although the Briton made considerable progress in his performances in Spain, he had a poor working day in Monaco on Friday.

The Briton finished P10 in FP1 and was further relegated to P12 in FP2. Meanwhile, his teammate George Russell finished P8 and P6 in FP1 and 2 respectively. Therefore, having a significant edge over his veteran teammate.

Talking about Hamilton’s performances on Friday, former Mercedes teammate Nico Rosberg criticized Hamilton. The ex-F1 driver while comparing him to Russell even said “Lewis just lost his way out there”.

Though he was empathetic about the Mercedes W13 being a difficult car to drive in Monaco, he suggested that Russell still managed to have a significant performative edge.

F1 Twitter is tired of Nico Rosberg criticizing Lewis Hamilton

Since their fallout in Mercedes, Hamilton and Rosberg haven’t had the best of relations. But now fans think that it’s also influencing the bias of the German against his former ally while doing analytical work for SkySports.

This instance is not the only time when Rosberg has been critical of Hamilton in 2022. During Hamilton’s underwhelming result in Australia, Rosberg left no stone unturned to spot Hamilton’s shortages.

Therefore, the fans on Twitter are wondering whether Rosberg only appears to only criticize Hamilton.
