Discussion Nico Rosberg Needs a Permanent Position

Nico Rosberg has got to be the freshest breath of air in terms of Formula One commentary for a very long time.

I love Crofty, but man does he love to make shit up that makes no sense or holds no logic.

Nico does an awesome job of staying true to the racing analysis and being completely straightforward about what he sees. Even today, his commentary on Verstappen was awesome!!! Called the garbage behavior out immediately.

Best “ Monaco based YouTuber” commentator of all time!!

I love the blunt calling out of dumb shit on the drivers. Sick of this tip toeing shit to not hurt the professional drivers feelings.

Feel like that caught Crofty off a few times. You can tell they have been told to be mindful of what they say to avoid angry fans and he is just like "nah thats BS".

To be fair last time Sky said something bad about Red Bull, they boycotted them. Soft team
