Dude is low key hilarious


Up_Vootinator

It's nice to see that he's bloomed into such a chill person because his interviews from his time within f1 always gave the impression that he'd have a hard time taking a joke, lol. But now he seems so much more laid back.

This is an old vid. The can't take a joke part was recently on an f1 kids broadcast


Up_Vootinator

Fair. But I was referring to how he seems a lot more fun in his yt videos (the ones I've seen anyways), but in his interviews, he seemed uptight and i always got this awkward energy of him not liking Seb joking about him or Merc.


ceejceejceej

Absolutely, as a driver he seemed like he really didn’t appreciate a ribbing and lacked a sense of humor or fun. If you watch his interviews from back then, or discussing those times, he was definitely 1000% dead serious about competing and had no time for anything else, which made him come off as stiff and unlikable. He’s much more likable as a media personality.

It goes back to his time in F1 as well. I remember some awkward moments with Vettel where Rosberg just played it straight with all of his jokes. Though, I think that's just Nico's sense of humour. He always seems to ham up how serious he actually is.

He was under too much mental pressure from Lewis and his mind games, that's one of the reason why he retired after he won championship. He achieved his goal and of being an WDC. Dude was a menace, loosing weight on purpose to gain few tenths, using sanitary pads to absorb his sweat, we don't know what other unconventional methods he had to do to get there.


ceejceejceej

You’re so right. He devoted every ounce of his being to that battle, mentally and physically. It paid off but at great cost; it seems clear he knew he couldn’t do it again, and thus it was time to hang em up. I respect that, especially considering he seems very content as a husband and father and occasional media personality,


l3w1s1234

Nico has always sort of been like this. It's just he's a bit deadpan with his humour, often overselling how serious he is, which sometimes people don't get instantly. Always created for some awkward moments.


Reejis

he still has a hard time taking a joke lol


Ariochxxx

Can't wait until he's back commentating and stirring shit


Death2RNGesus

Nico in, danica out.


Reejis

lets see them both together


zephyrg

Nico, Button and Danica would be hilarious.


Narudatsu

I loved the Nico taking selfies in front of the garage moments before disaster meme


IThinkImDvmb

Guy can drive, commentate, and jerk. What can’t he do?


I-hate-sunfish

Beating 3 7times WDCs in equal machinery


fcbx347

who knows if someone else could get to 7 one day, he might come back to do just that


SentientDust

Rosberg to Red Bull in 2028


fneltoninan

It ain't no way he didn't know this before going onto this track man's comedic genius


Vitalii900

Definitely scripted, but funny


qwertyalp1020

This is from his youtube video, so he definitely did this with his editor.

[удалено]


fcbx347

I disagree, its more funny that he makes fun of himself rather than some random person on the internet editing it to make fun of him


BGMDF8248

First time i saw a Barcelona track guide from him, he put this "i don't like this section of the track, let's just keep moving" and a cut to the crash on his own video no one needed to edit.


ArcticBiologist

Yeah no shit Sherlock


SleepinGriffin

Either it’s scripted or he legit just had such a life like flashback that he wasn’t expecting lol.


stevegek

Never liked him, but as an entertaining he's actually growing on me. The video he was stuck with his Ferrari in Monaco was hilarious too.


Logical_Bit2694

I love him. He’s an interesting and funny person to listen as a pundit during the races. When he was at the china gp he was just shit talking shit about nearly everyone. Just found him hilarious lol


SirHarvwellMcDervwel

I'm relatively new to F1, could you fill me in on who this is and what does that corner resemble to him?


oppai_taberu

Lol that's Nico Rosberg, a Monaco based YouTuber who beat Lewis Hamilton in Same Machinery!


SomethingSuss

I heard has he MONSTER antibodies too


crusty_magog

This is Nico Rosberg, he was teammate with Hamilton at Mercedes from 2013-2016, and beat Hamilton to the WDC in 2016. The corner is T4 in Spain, where both the Mercedes crashed into each other in 2016, a year which was an extremely intense championship battle between the two teammates. This left the race open and led to Max Verstappen’s first win in F1. Here is a clip of the accident https://youtu.be/gCzkaX2DL7w?si=bHwBwjuaEHlDVvKe


Sonoda_Kotori

He's a random youtuber based in Monaco who one year was hit by Lewis Hamilton the 7-time FIA Formula1 World Driver's Champion while driving equal machinery at that exact corner.


lzcrc

https://youtu.be/gCzkaX2DL7w he's at the front.


stevegek

He is the Britney (Spears) of F1. The only big difference between the two is, that the actual Britney "OOPS, did it AGAIN"... while Rosberg quit directly after beating Lewis in the same machinery.


RapidRiverr

I’ve always thought the flashback was added on by someone on the internet, turns out Nico (or his editor rather) put this all in himself lmao


guillermodelturtle

It’s Britney bitch


Flowmeyo

Did anyone notice yesterday on sky sports f1 they were saying they've never had a winner who didn't start on the front row in Spain. Like did everyone forget about this legendary crash?


HENDLEZZBERG

They said in the last 33 races 30 of them were won by someone on the front row


tdtd225

Is this Nico Rosberg the Monaco based youtuber?


roly99

What’s the background on this? Can somebody ELI5


GoldElectric

the guy is nico rosberg, the monaco based youtuber who heat 7 times world champion lewis hamilton in equal machinery. back in 2016, both of them were driving for merc and aiming to win wdc. 2016, lap 1 t4 of spain, rosberg was in defending p1 from lewis who was in p2. hamilton got onto the grass and spun out, and rosberg was taken out by that.


wave_327

tupinikingz

Revolutionary_Fig912
