Nico Rosberg has ‘no passion for racing’ as Sky F1 pundit launches stinging criticism

Nico Rosberg’s decision to retire after beating Mercedes team-mate Lewis Hamilton to the F1 2016 title proved he has “no passion for racing.”

That is the opinion of Rosberg’s fellow Sky F1 pundit and 1997 World Champion Jacques Villeneuve, who said the German’s call to walk away went against his racing instincts.

Rosberg famously announced his retirement five days after winning the 2016 title in a nailbiting decider in Abu Dhabi.
