Rosberg wants to beat Schumacher

Nico Rosberg, little prodigy of German motorsport, hopes to see his career take off by joining Mercedes GP. After driving at Williams, a team with which he did not win a Grand Prix, the son of Keke Rosberg has attached himself to the world champion team and now powerfully supported by Mercedes. But the arrival of Michael Schumacher within the team could overshadow the young driver or, on the contrary, encourage his development. Regardless, the driver is not worried and believes that he will not be disadvantaged compared to his illustrious teammate.

« We have the same status within the team, Rosberg told Auto Bild. This has always been Mercedes' philosophy in these cases. » And, despite his teammate's track record, Nico Rosberg swears that he will know the challenger and will even know the respect aside. “ Your teammate is always the first person you want to compete against. He's the only one who has the same car. My goal is therefore to be regularly in front of him. »
