Nico Rosberg says George Russell can't afford to play the 'nice guy' in his rivalry with Mercedes team-mate Lewis Hamilton
George Russell 'can't just be the nice guy' in his battle with Mercedes team-mate Lewis Hamilton, Nico Rosberg has told the Sky Sports F1 Podcast. Seven-time world champion Hamilton took responsibility and apologised for causing a first-corner collision with Russell at the Qatar Grand Prix earlier in October, as their inter-team rivalry boiled over following several near misses.
'So that was a big win for George in that sense, also internally, which is very rare because in my time Lewis never had 100 per cent fault, so he never actually had to admit in that way.'So it's very, very rare for Lewis to be at 100 per cent fault at that, it usually never happens.'It's to be watched. It's an interesting battle and dynamic opening out there.
