I know but he did unwittingly reveal that Lewis was better than him at driving a F1 car Dance

 

“The anger is bigger if that person you know so well does something that crosses the line,” said Rosberg in a brutally frank interview with the Daily Mail, likely to raise hackles and calls for his tongue to be torn off and fed to dogs, for blaspheming against the Ham.

 

“Lewis is very good at going to the edge without going outside the grey area, thanks to his skills in the car. He is smart, very, very smart. I found it harder to go wheel-to-wheel. For him, it comes naturally.”

“For me, it is more rational. I have to work at standing my ground. I got more aggressive because too often in the past he had walked all over me. I had to watch the videos and make improvements.”
