Rosberg: “The most important thing was to win”

On Brazilian soil, Nico Rosberg continued its good series of results with a second consecutive success after its victory in Mexico. A victory all the more important, as it allows the pilot Mercedes to secure his second place in the Drivers' championship against Sebastian Vettel, third this Sunday.

“It’s going well at the moment, qualifying and the race. Unfortunately it's much too late in the season, underlines the German at the microphone of Canal + after the arrival. The championship was already over, but second is better than third. And this allows us to finish the season well in preparation for next year. The most important thing was to win the race and be in front of everyone. » he indicated, while later emphasizing that he had a better rhythm thanHamilton this Sunday.

Rosberg, once again dominated this season by his teammate Lewis Hamilton in the title race, indicated that this return to the forefront is not the result of chance. « I worked very hard to improve myself, and at the moment I'm driving faster. I'm going to Abu Dhabi where I was on pole last year and I'm going to try to win there. »
