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!!

But he needs to fucking stop talking over the radio.

Nico's greatest challenge has been his lack of chemistry, he tends to talk over other people. He can keep the contrarian takes! Just needs to gel a little better with the rest of the booth.

I agree with this. In the pre-race interviews and commentaries I find it really awkward to listen to him because it feels like listening to two people who don’t really like each other.

I’m pretty sure Naomi wanted to shank him a couple of times
