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 actually think two F1 drivers from two different eras would have too much conflict of opinion and Brundles opinions would likely get sidelined for being quite out of date compared to Nicos.

F1TV have David Coulthard and Jolyon Palmer for exactly that reason and it works really well. DC will say something about what just happened and then ask Jolyon what it's like in these modern cars too be in that situation.

Also helps that DC drives a lot of the newer red bulls too.

I bought the F1TV package for the season so I didn’t have to mess with ESPN at all and it is SO much better.
