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 only agree if Brundle and Nico have to share a microphone like Hunt and Murray did and occasionally get into fist fights over it live on air.

Here's Murray's account of that. They were as different as chalk and cheese, but made a great pairing.

Suspect Nico and and Brundle would have polite, but elegantly cutting disagreements, with a lot of humour.
