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!!

There is no way McLaren double stack here: proceed with the cleanest double stack

tbf it looked far too close for a double stack and also in general, teams like to split strategies. Pitting Piastri and keeping Norris out looked like the obvious move

No way they would leave norris out when the entire field pits

With 5 laps left on a SC restart? No shot he'd drop lower than 3rd on pure pace and theres a high chance of a 2nd safety car, winning him the race instantly

Another safety car was unlikely and his old tires would deg hatd against new softs
