Vettel attacking Rosberg? More like covering him from Max, he wasn't going to run his country-mate chance of winning after the title, not after seeing what Lewis was doing.
Hamilton was going slow to stop Rosberg. What are you talking about? This is the only reason why Crashtappen and Vettel were so close. Hamilton was driving dirty. Great Nico
I feel like Rosberg was very lucky to have Vettel behind him. Not that Vettel wouldn’t have passed him if an opportunity arose, but Vettel clearly realised what was happening and didn’t try and do anything too risky and cost Rosberg the championship.
@@atulrawat5894 Hamilton and Rosberg wore fighting for championship and if Rosberg gets P2 he becomes champion, Then Hamilton is in P1 going as slow as posible blocking Rosberg to force Vettel(P3) to overtake him, and Vettel aware of what is happening just chills behind Rosberg
Gopr311 no he wasn't he had so many opportunities to overtake especially when Lewis slowed the pack down. he just wanted to see a fellow country man win the championship.
Especially because he crashed with Nico that year and wanted to give something back(it was 100% Vettels fault an he admitted it and was very sorry for it). Nico had a 1 favor free and Vettel gave him that in the last couple of rounds.
Video Reviews so many reasons - what if only Nico crashed in the overtake attempt? What if he went deep on a lunge? It’s all about risk management and it wasn’t worth the risk to make a move
@@happigappi3618 nico went defensive twice. one time to let vettel run out of tarmac on the outside and one time as some sort of "prevention" just in case there was an attack coming. there is absolutely no way to overtake at that corner if you're not ahead before the corner and vettel wasn't. all you have to do as the leading car is to move to the inside and brake late. the chicane after the first drs zone was way more dangerous and there vettel has always been miles behind nico.
Imagine the guy in the Ferrari is being a bigger team mate than the guy who's not only on your team, but you grew up with. No wonder their relationship fell apart.
I dont blame Hamilton at all for doing this, knowing you've already got the Constructors Championship and your own teammate deliberately pushed you off track at the Austrian GP. Not a fan of both of them though.
The real OG here is Vettel for not letting Hamilton get his way, he knew exactly what Hamilton was doing and decided to let his fellow country man win. That probably redeems him for what he did to Mark.
I think vettel didn’t have the pace lol, he was never going to overtake that Mercedes. Mercedes one two and then Ferrari 30 seconds back. That was the trend for last 6 years until recently Ferrari decided to become a mafia.

It’s not just that simple that Bottas is much slower. Absolutely not. Many F1 fans sees things as so simple, but they’re are far from simple. People need to remember that the rules changed massively in 2017, when overtaking and wheel to wheel combat became much harder...
Rosberg was never as talented as Hamilton but you have to credit his grit and determination . People say about him having luck too but that is part of racing. Rosberg was a seriously clever and talented guy and I hope fans will respect him more with time. You don't win a WDC just by luck or talent it is always a mixture of factors. Some of the things Nico did were devious but he needed to harden himself mentally after 2014 and 15 in order to become WDC- he did that in 2016. Also Rosberg was not a coward for retiring after winning the title-he'd just achieved his dream and chose to retire at the top.
Stephen Taylor Rosberg is just a coward Hamilton was on an other Level compared to him Only won the Championship because of the Motordamage ham had in Malaysia
Lewis is a sportsman only when he wins, we saw this with Rosberg and with vettel this year, he will win again and will be a great driver, but he will never be a great champion if he doesn't change

To everyone saying Nico didn't deserve the championship: 1) Wtf are you smoking, he was by far the most consistent driver that year and nearly always did what he had to do to win that championship 2) He showed more determination than Hamilton did after the disappointment of the last two seasons. In 2014 Nicos championship was destroyed by a critical failure on the final race but he refused to retire just in case something went wrong for Hamilton. Hamilton consistently gave up on races (Baku for example) and complained about every little thing if it wasn't going his way. 3) I bet everyone talking about Hamiltons bad luck that year isn't saying the same things about Vettel this year which effectively gifted the title to Hamilton. Well done Nico you earned it
Gotta add 7 points more to Rosberg, that Hamilton cost him by causing the crash in Spain GP, DNF for both instead P1+2. Therefor there is no bad luck of Hamilton at all. Hamilton lost and probably would have lost again in 2017.
Alex Clark-Thompson 1) He strolled away with it when Lewis wasn't in the picture, with a car that was head and shoulders above the rest... He then proceeded to lose his 40+ point lead faster than he got it but ok. 2) No, Nico got destroyed by Lewis, period. The only reason Nico had a chance was because of the gimmick *double points* system. He was also blown away at the start by Lewis and was behind him from the beginning. Lewis 11 wins in 2014 ... Nico 5... You tell me who deserved it most. When Lewis's car was eventually fixed in Baku, he set the fastest lap of the race (at the time) too. Wouldn't exactly call that 'giving up' but he knew it'd be wiser to fight another day instead of trying to catch someone who was 30 seconds ahead with limited laps, but ok. 3) Vettel blew it himself with idiotic moves and moments. Not much else to say.
Jraybay I sense there is no point arguing with you as shown in your thumbnail but I have to disagree with some of your points. Firstly when you say Hamilton set the fastest lap therefore he didn't give up you clearly haven't listened to his team radio. Hamilton invents problems that the team don't see because they don't exist. Secondly you talk about Vettel stupid moments referring to Singapore obviously. Firstly he made no contact with Verstappen and had no way of knowing where kimi was. That was bad luck. I see you fail to notice how Hamilton nearly always violently cuts across people at the start of races when on pole and gets away with it because others know to back out now.
@@Firemarioflower You’re a couple years late. Vettel already stated himself that he realized what Lewis was doing and he was out of the title race anyways so he had nothing to gain and held Max back so Nico could win it
Nico is one of a few champions who can say "I defeated Hamilton for the championship" Nico tried and tried until he did his best by defeating his partner.
He never defeated hamilton. He got the title handed to him. This will haunt nico for ever. Look at nico followers. They always remind nico got title handed to him. He darm knows it!
@@SeanSmith88 Hamilton had one more DNF over the course of 21 races. It haunts Hamilton fans that the so-called "greatest driver of all time", actually lost over the course of a season, to an average driver like Rosberg! I know he had one more DNF. But if he was actually as great as you lot make him out to be, he should be beating Rosberg with 5 races to spare and that DNF wouldn't have even mattered! Also, if Hamilton manages to pip Verstappen to the drivers title this season. Are you gonna cry that Hamilton had it "handed to him" after Verstappens 2 DNF's so far this season?
I have seen a few of Nico's candid interviews. They would not speak to each other or speak anything as their motorhome room was next to each other as they could hear each other talking. Nico got Michaels room & Lewis got Nico's old room which is noisy & next to the kitchen. The feud is one the best I have heard of in F1.
All the Hamilton arselickers saying Rosberg didn’t deserve it. I’ll just leave this Bernie Ecclestone quote as to who wins the championship “the one with the most points I’m sure”. By the way I lean towards Hamilton but I recognise good driving over a season when I see it. It’s clear to anyone relatively neutral Nico deserved it that year
Joe Dyson I think the reason why people say he didn’t deserve it was because rosbergs car was pratically perfectly reliable whereas Hamilton had a lot of reliability issues in the first 12 races. But with that rosberg still had to perform and get the full advantage out of those events which made him a good driver and deserving of the championship imo. Hell a lot of people seeing their rival get problems so early on would get complacent and not take full advantage of it all, something rosberg didn’t do. You simply can’t fault that. This is coming from a diehard Hamilton fan btw
@@ndevvarma That reminds me of Verstappen vs Ricciardo in the 17 and 18 seasons. All Verstappens dnf's where him overdriving the car but Ricciardo's dnf's were bad luck.
Reliability issues are unfortunate, but they can be caused by the driver pushing the engine too hard. Rosberg is a smart guy and he could've helped the engine a little...
Haha, two years later & I’m still loving the bitterness of all these Lewis Hamilton fanboys! 😂🤣 Just get over it, Nico Rosberg won fair & square. He led for 16 out of 20 of the rounds, therefore he is the deserved champion.
What the fuck are you talking about nico never led 16 out of 20 rounds. Lewis won more races and you fucking know nico never won fair and square. Its easy to beat a best driver when bad lucks strikes you. Just ask senna how prost beat him
@@SeanSmith88 Rosberg did lead for 16 of the 21 rounds - google it. He lost the lead in Hungary and got it back in Singapore (5 races) 21 - 5 = 16. He won fair and square get over it.
@@SeanSmith88 How is it not fair when Rosberg happened to make better starts??? Get lost man..... Rosberg didn't do anything illegal apart from pushing Hamilton off track in Austria but that only hurt himself.
Martin Brundle was so damn salty over that last lap and his petty “not supposed to touch the car” comment after the race epitomized the lack of respect for Rosberg. Doesn’t matter. He won the title😂
They aren't friends though. Nevertheless I think Vettel didn't attack him on purpose, too. Vettel had four championship titles at that point. Lewis had three and that would have been his fourth in 2016, if he had gotten it there. By choosing not to attack Roßberg, Vettel made sure he remained the driver with the most titles in the field. Plus, what if something goes wrong during the overtake and there is an accident or something. Vettel would have been the guy who actively decided the outcome of the championship.
@@TheHidalgo99 This is not why Vettel did not attack Rosberg. Lewis Hamilton was going slow so that Vettel and Max would be able to catch up and put pressure on Rosberg. And all that happened after Hamilton said that he is not going to try such stuff. Vettel said that he understood what Hamilton was doing and he did not want to risk Rosberg's championship.
I may be mistaken but is the driver in 2nd place Nico Rosberg who defeated Sir Lewis Hamilton who was defeated by 23 year old Dutch driver Max Verstappen in different machinery in 2016 in the same machinery? Truly marvelous!
World according to Hamilton fanboys: 2016 - Rosberg was lucky and didn't deserve the title because Hamilton had a couple of issues with the car during the season. 2017 - Hamilton totally deserves the title even though Vettel crashed, didn't even start one race, and had 2 more races totally fucked without his fault, which literally lost him the championship during the moment in the season when Ferrari was clearly faster than Mercedes in q's and races. Let me put it this way fanboys. Rosberg deserved the title more last year than Hamilton does this year. Hamilton DIDN'T WIN the title in 2017, Vettel LOST it. End of.
From not a Hamilton fan, let me help you to understand the very obvious difference. 2016: Hamilton lost an almost definite win (Malaysia), had to start last in Belgium, tenth in Russia and was hit by Bottas in Bahrain. 2017: Vettel lost maybe a second place in Japan (might have been third), had to start last in Malaysia and lost some points at Silverstone. 2016: Rosberg had no reliability issues. 2017: Hamilton lost a win at Baku due to the headrest. 2016: Rosberg won the championship by just 5 points. 2017: Even if Hamilton retires and Vettel wins tomorrow, Hamilton will win the title by 18 points.
@Zeronality Do you mean the water pump issue in practice for the British GP? The one that Rosberg himself said had not really impacted on his weekend? Hamilton had a few practice issues too. Should we chalk all of those up? Re: Gearbox. True. Those three points lost doesn't change the argument though does it? Hardly the same as losing a certain win and having to start massively out of position for two GPs is it? The rest you cite are not reliability issues. On a par with Raikkonen surreptitiously removed from contention a few times, perhaps? "You "objectivity" is clealy cocksucking Hamilton." Why be civil when you don't have to be, eh?
Hamilton did the right thing to try and win and the championship. Could have won by a minute with Rosberg in second and that would have been game over, obviously couldn't risk a collision. So the only logical way was to Rosberg into the pack and hope someone would overtake him. What else could he have done??? Not as if he was Senna or Schumacher and rammed Prost or Hill off the road to win the title, don't know why Hamilton got so much stick for this especially with Mercedes already having won the constructors championship. Hamilton did the right thing.
M M Bro That’s really fucking racist Man and it’s sickening that you think that it is okay to say. Just cause ur online you dgaf. Bro i suggest you delete this comment and refrain from being a racist.
they are lowlife people, not intelligent in any way related to logic. people who use the word hate on something like this, don't know what real hate is. the only one i am a fan of is Bottas, but still i have huge respect for Hamilton and Vettel. the only one i don't have any respect is Kvyat for being a dirty racer.
Anyways Lewis days will be finish soon by some one like how senna finished by shumi , shumi finished by Alonso. Some one has to take that alpha place of championship. Max already shown that footsteps.
Toto: We need our gap advantage, no safety car FIA: Safety car Toto: Keep the lapped cars for protection FIA: Lapped cars are removed "It's being manipulated man" Lewis - Realising their manipulative tactics are no longer working. FIA: We went car racing
Lets be real here, once the last two laps were on, Vettel never really tried to put Rosberg under even bigger pressure...he had this one attempt but wasn’t obviously forcing him into locking or making mistakes, you can see by how Vettel more or less cruises behind Rosberg Nice sportsmanship there
Chris Valeske not really. this is the highest level of racing. they were fighting for a championship, nico even said he would do the same. its not like he’s just gonna let him go and win without a fight
he actually saw what hamilton was trying to do and didnt want to give him that title. A bit like sao paolo when Schumacher did let Vettel pass him for the title
Consiguió revertir la situación después de dos años duros contra Lewis en los que había quedado por detrás. Fortaleció su mente y confió en su talento, para ser mucho más estable y determinado.

Nico is one of a few champions who can say "I defeated Hamilton for the championship" Nico tried and tried until he did his best by defeating his partner.
He never defeated hamilton. He got the title handed to him. This will haunt nico for ever. Look at nico followers. They always remind nico got title handed to him. He darm knows it!
Sean Smith looks like it’s haunting you, not Rosberg. He’s enjoying life now as a World Champion.
@@SeanSmith88 lol Salty Hamilton fanboy
@@SeanSmith88 Hamilton had one more DNF over the course of 21 races.
It haunts Hamilton fans that the so-called "greatest driver of all time", actually lost over the course of a season, to an average driver like Rosberg!
I know he had one more DNF. But if he was actually as great as you lot make him out to be, he should be beating Rosberg with 5 races to spare and that DNF wouldn't have even mattered!
Also, if Hamilton manages to pip Verstappen to the drivers title this season. Are you gonna cry that Hamilton had it "handed to him" after Verstappens 2 DNF's so far this season?
@@footballnerd277 yeah and also sending Max out in Silverstone
He can’t afford an ‘entanglement’
That hits different now...
Glad I wasn’t the only one who thought that 😂
@@XBR4Da I don't get it, can someone explain to me please?
BendtFender28 Look up Jada Smith red table with Will Smith 😂
Yep... me looking for jada smith on the track when he said that
What’s the joke here lol
Such an intense moment that was. Wish he had stayed. Would be exciting to watch the teammates compete.
To be honest, it wasnt, it was a whole lot of whining and passive aggressive comments.
I have seen a few of Nico's candid interviews. They would not speak to each other or speak anything as their motorhome room was next to each other as they could hear each other talking. Nico got Michaels room & Lewis got Nico's old room which is noisy & next to the kitchen. The feud is one the best I have heard of in F1.
if Nico was still at merc vettel would have probably won the championship this year
Nico left at right time he wouldn’t of been aloud to beat smug Hamilton again
That's interesting. Some say this can be considered dangerous driving
Some people would say that's some dangerous driving
Am I the only one who absolutely loved Nico's helmet and suit with gloves? Everything matches so freaking well
All the Hamilton arselickers saying Rosberg didn’t deserve it. I’ll just leave this Bernie Ecclestone quote as to who wins the championship “the one with the most points I’m sure”. By the way I lean towards Hamilton but I recognise good driving over a season when I see it. It’s clear to anyone relatively neutral Nico deserved it that year
Joe Dyson I think the reason why people say he didn’t deserve it was because rosbergs car was pratically perfectly reliable whereas Hamilton had a lot of reliability issues in the first 12 races. But with that rosberg still had to perform and get the full advantage out of those events which made him a good driver and deserving of the championship imo. Hell a lot of people seeing their rival get problems so early on would get complacent and not take full advantage of it all, something rosberg didn’t do. You simply can’t fault that. This is coming from a diehard Hamilton fan btw
@@ndevvarma That reminds me of Verstappen vs Ricciardo in the 17 and 18 seasons.
All Verstappens dnf's where him overdriving the car but Ricciardo's dnf's were bad luck.
Reliability issues are unfortunate, but they can be caused by the driver pushing the engine too hard. Rosberg is a smart guy and he could've helped the engine a little...
well im a big lewis fan but rosberg is a still my fav driver of all time
Haha, two years later & I’m still loving the bitterness of all these Lewis Hamilton fanboys! 😂🤣 Just get over it, Nico Rosberg won fair & square. He led for 16 out of 20 of the rounds, therefore he is the deserved champion.
What the fuck are you talking about nico never led 16 out of 20 rounds. Lewis won more races and you fucking know nico never won fair and square. Its easy to beat a best driver when bad lucks strikes you. Just ask senna how prost beat him
@@SeanSmith88 Rosberg did lead for 16 of the 21 rounds - google it. He lost the lead in Hungary and got it back in Singapore (5 races) 21 - 5 = 16. He won fair and square get over it.
@@SeanSmith88 How is it not fair when Rosberg happened to make better starts??? Get lost man..... Rosberg didn't do anything illegal apart from pushing Hamilton off track in Austria but that only hurt himself.
@@Firemarioflower how did he get better starts. By qualifying better than Lewis.
@@SeanSmith88 hahaha ok clown
Nico and Vivian's radio messages were downright adorable!!
"That's some dangerous driving man"-Lewis when Checo does to him what he did to Nico. Such a hypocrite
Every drivers are hypocrite with that logic
By that logic max is an even bigger hypocrite when he talks about leaving space and divebombs
The inter-team rivalry of Rosberg and Hamilton was one of my favourite things I've seen in the sport
I came here to see this after monstrous last lap Abu Dhabi 2021.
"this is getting manipulated man"....
Good job Nico, a well deserved champion title!
sogerc1 Are you thinking straight?
e.mc2 Well you’re most certainly gullible!
e.mc2 fuck rosberg
Well helped title from nationalist german team
#NicoRosberg yes!!
Meanwhile in 2020 : Valteri, its James !
Martin Brundle was so damn salty over that last lap and his petty “not supposed to touch the car” comment after the race epitomized the lack of respect for Rosberg. Doesn’t matter. He won the title😂
Martin Brundle always hate German drivers
@@Amaking10000 true thats why i dont like him
I think vettel didnt attacked rosberg because there are both german and friends
They aren't friends though. Nevertheless I think Vettel didn't attack him on purpose, too. Vettel had four championship titles at that point. Lewis had three and that would have been his fourth in 2016, if he had gotten it there. By choosing not to attack Roßberg, Vettel made sure he remained the driver with the most titles in the field. Plus, what if something goes wrong during the overtake and there is an accident or something. Vettel would have been the guy who actively decided the outcome of the championship.
Rosberg hate vettel lol he said it somewhere I forgot
@@TheHidalgo99 This is not why Vettel did not attack Rosberg. Lewis Hamilton was going slow so that Vettel and Max would be able to catch up and put pressure on Rosberg. And all that happened after Hamilton said that he is not going to try such stuff. Vettel said that he understood what Hamilton was doing and he did not want to risk Rosberg's championship.
@@dimitriskazantzidis7718 it's basically what I said with a slightly different motive but only ever so slightly.
@@TheHidalgo99 Well Vettel also felt guilty about having a crash with Rosberg
From this year we will remember the last lap of abu Dhabi with happiness.
A Ferrari fan.
"thats some dangerous driving man" came here after the 2021 abu dhabi gp where checo slowed lewis down. getting a taste of your own meds lulu
I may be mistaken but is the driver in 2nd place Nico Rosberg who defeated Sir Lewis Hamilton who was defeated by 23 year old Dutch driver Max Verstappen in different machinery in 2016 in the same machinery? Truly marvelous!
The monaco based youtuber?!?!?!
That was some dangerous driving man 🤣
best team radio ever, so wholesome
Oh boy, Hamilton got a bit of his own medicine from Perez in 2021 Abu Dhabi
Hamilton did the right thing in 2016, anyone who says they wouldn't have done that is a liar
@@FraserThorburn-wr8st and that's getting outlawed right after
What a great season! What a great championship for Rosberg!
Formula 1 lost its competitiveness with Rosberg retirement.
How about the 2018 lol
And now2021
You really missed out on 2017 and 2018
and then 2021 happened xD
2021 is here xd
I feel like Hamilton still hasn't recovered from this.
Archduchess Elisabeth Marie And you are wrong
Edenilson Ventura And you are in denial
he prob. did
he is definitely pissed that he cant get his revenge
4 > 1
One of my fav championship wins by a driver.
Absolutely
oooh update on this?
At 1:01 nico took the inside line to protect it and vettel went for the outside and slowed down early to protect nico from the outside .
This world championship burned his body and mind.
The only man who put a stop to Hamilton's streak.
Sad he retired though.
And then Verstappen ended Hamilton's streak and is now on a streak of his own
Anyone else get chills from this video, rosberg was a master!
Such a legend. Great guy. He deserved this.
one of the best F1
Seb absolutely didn’t want to mingle with
I don’t know if it’s just me but that looked a bit like some dangerous driving
Who’s here after the 2021 Abu Dhabi finale?
World according to Hamilton fanboys:
2016 - Rosberg was lucky and didn't deserve the title because Hamilton had a couple of issues with the car during the season.
2017 - Hamilton totally deserves the title even though Vettel crashed, didn't even start one race, and had 2 more races totally fucked without his fault, which literally lost him the championship during the moment in the season when Ferrari was clearly faster than Mercedes in q's and races.
Let me put it this way fanboys. Rosberg deserved the title more last year than Hamilton does this year. Hamilton DIDN'T WIN the title in 2017, Vettel LOST it. End of.
From not a Hamilton fan, let me help you to understand the very obvious difference.
2016: Hamilton lost an almost definite win (Malaysia), had to start last in Belgium, tenth in Russia and was hit by Bottas in Bahrain.
2017: Vettel lost maybe a second place in Japan (might have been third), had to start last in Malaysia and lost some points at Silverstone.
2016: Rosberg had no reliability issues.
2017: Hamilton lost a win at Baku due to the headrest.
2016: Rosberg won the championship by just 5 points.
2017: Even if Hamilton retires and Vettel wins tomorrow, Hamilton will win the title by 18 points.
ajcardiff1 if you're saying that much as a non Hamilton fan, then what would have you said as his fan
ajcardiff1 exactly fuck this deluded guy
@@Pal42_ What an excellent refutation of the facts. Well done!
@Zeronality Do you mean the water pump issue in practice for the British GP? The one that Rosberg himself said had not really impacted on his weekend? Hamilton had a few practice issues too. Should we chalk all of those up?
Re: Gearbox. True. Those three points lost doesn't change the argument though does it? Hardly the same as losing a certain win and having to start massively out of position for two GPs is it?
The rest you cite are not reliability issues. On a par with Raikkonen surreptitiously removed from contention a few times, perhaps?
"You "objectivity" is clealy cocksucking Hamilton." Why be civil when you don't have to be, eh?
What a final lap! One of the best Abu Dhabi GPs
Hamilton did the right thing to try and win and the championship. Could have won by a minute with Rosberg in second and that would have been game over, obviously couldn't risk a collision. So the only logical way was to Rosberg into the pack and hope someone would overtake him. What else could he have done??? Not as if he was Senna or Schumacher and rammed Prost or Hill off the road to win the title, don't know why Hamilton got so much stick for this especially with Mercedes already having won the constructors championship. Hamilton did the right thing.
Championships that are so close and tense are rare in F1, so racing fans should be grateful for an amazing season.
Lewis at his sportsmanship best.
It's Lewis when he's most determined to win
Last time i saw lewis sportsmanship aka "pure racing" was in 2008 brazillian gp. What happens after that: Liegate, etc
yoshiboy619 That's called as being a bitch.
M M Bro That’s really fucking racist Man and it’s sickening that you think that it is okay to say. Just cause ur online you dgaf. Bro i suggest you delete this comment and refrain from being a racist.
The racism here is sickening
Vettel wasnt atacking, trust me
I don't trust you, stop insulting Sebastian like that. He had no way to get past, Rosberg benefitted from Hamilton's DRS
@@Firemarioflower How's that an insult? he figured out Hamilton's game and stopped him from winning (his little game, not so much the race)
wtf is all this hate between fan bases.... can't you all just be chill
The One And Only The ones who dislike Lewis get hate from the people that don't let others have opinions
FUCK YOU
I agree totally and Why you have to be mad? 😂
they are lowlife people, not intelligent in any way related to logic. people who use the word hate on something like this, don't know what real hate is. the only one i am a fan of is Bottas, but still i have huge respect for Hamilton and Vettel. the only one i don't have any respect is Kvyat for being a dirty racer.
@@blockah96 look what he did to Vettel a few years back. he acts like a stereotypical russian, doing whatever for any reason he sees fit.
How I miss these days. Someone who really made Hamilton run for his money.
Yeah, that was Seb in the first half of the 2017 and 2018 seasons, then Singapore and Germany happened.
@@PG-20 The ferrari by midway in those seasons was not comparable to the merc.
Yeah im really hoping this is verstappens year
Anyways Lewis days will be finish soon by some one like how senna finished by shumi , shumi finished by Alonso. Some one has to take that alpha place of championship. Max already shown that footsteps.
@@lulu4494 Schumacher definitely didn’t finish Senna

“That’s some dangerous driving man…”
Congra Nicoooo. Greetings from Finland :)
Lets be real here, once the last two laps were on, Vettel never really tried to put Rosberg under even bigger pressure...he had this one attempt but wasn’t obviously forcing him into locking or making mistakes, you can see by how Vettel more or less cruises behind Rosberg
Nice sportsmanship there
Yeah because 2nd wasn’t really worth that much to Vettel at that moment, not like it was a win

That's some dangerous driving man👹👹👹👹👹
For a moment I thought that I had already commented on this video 😂. So few people have seen that movie.
I’ve seen so much footage of the 2021 GP that I got a bit surprised when Rosberg entered the first chicane
He did it. Well done Nico, you're for me one of the best of our era
who is here after 2021 Abu Dhabi race ?
Just loved the energy back then more hype
I don't think Vettel had any intention of overtaking nico even if he could. A German looking out for another German
like schumacher did to vettel for the championship
He wouldn’t have, he’s not fighting for the championship and had he messed it up yeah wouldn’t do it
In my opinion that was a bad behavior from Lewis to slow down on purpose.
He wasn't a fair sportsman on this day..
I'm glad that Nico won anyway.
Chris Valeske not really. this is the highest level of racing. they were fighting for a championship, nico even said he would do the same. its not like he’s just gonna let him go and win without a fight
Midget Man completely agree with you, I can't see how driving slow in purpose is anti-sportmanship behavior.
Chris Valeske Of course you would think that, you're always whining about Lewis even when he does nothing wrong.
Jraybay That guy said Rosberg would be 2014 championship if not for bad luck. LMAO
He wasn't doing anything illegal, stop complaining about it. Lewis wanted that championship and his tactics nearly worked. Still happy for Nico tho.
"That's some dangerous driving man"
Did Mercedes appeal Vettel’s inability to overtake ROS and give the championship to HAM???
Yes
he actually saw what hamilton was trying to do and didnt want to give him that title. A bit like sao paolo when Schumacher did let Vettel pass him for the title
I remember this like yesterday.. no real fairplay in the final race, but I deserve this one!!
