Hamilton and Rosberg positive before Shanghai

Team instructions Red Bull Racing et Mercedes AMG F1 at the Malaysian Grand Prix caused a lot of ink to flow, but the Stuttgart manufacturer managed the situation better than the Austrian team since Nico Rosberg obeyed Ross Brawn's orders by retaining his 4th place without attacking his teammate Lewis Hamilton. The son of the 1982 world champion still plans to shine in Shanghai where he won his first victory last year.

“I will arrive with very good memories in China. With my victory last year, I have also been leading the race for the last three editions.", underlines the German. “I like the Shanghai circuit and I have positive feelings with the car we have now. The team has worked very hard to develop our car since our return to Malaysia and I will go to the factory next Monday to complete my preparation for the next two races on the simulator. We have had a very good start to the season and I am sure that we can continue to attack and achieve good results in China and Bahrain. »

His teammate Lewis Hamilton will also be keen to translate the good performances of the Silver Arrows into a good finish. The 2008 world champion was embarrassed on the Sepang podium following his team's instructions. “I can’t wait to go to China next week and get behind the wheel again,” adds the Briton. “Seems like it’s been a while since Malaysia! My first two races with my new team were a great experience and everyone made me feel at ease. We've had a better start to the season than we could have hoped for and finishing 5th and 3rd so far is really positive. »
