Rosberg will be another Moss if he is out-qualified by his team mate in every F1 race. I hope he has the speed to prevent his from happening.

I think it will be a head game for him. If he can just do his thing and get the most from the car he’ll do well. If he spends time and mental energy worrying about what Schmacher is doing he won’t.

I think it’s amusing that people suggest that it’s UK vs Germany , in terms of team Mclaren vs team Mercedes. Of course the Mercedes team is based in England and the engines are made there too, from what I gather.
