Analysing McLaren’s pe💟rformance in China during Sky Sports F1’s coverage, Rosberg urged Norris to have more “positivity”.
“Lando is a glass half-empty ꦅguy,” the 2016 worl🏅d champion said.
“Pre-race betting that Ferrari are going to beat them?𓆏 I don’t know. I don’t think that’s the best approach, in general. Positivity would be helpful.
“Nevertheless, h🌼e had a phenomenal drive today. He dr🗹ove so well. Together with Max, the driver of the day. Consistency, there was no degradation on his car.
“The comparison to his teammate Oscar Piastri who was really struꦍggling with degradation. Big difference, there. So a phenomenal drive.”

Rosberg is convinced McLaren can “definitely” challenge Ferr𓄧ari for second, with upgrades planned for the upcoming Miami Grand Prix.
“It’s amazing progress,” he said. “Although it is up and down on performance ♕from one track♎ to another, so it’s not clear where we are with the pecking order.
“Ferrari, for example, were disapp🐬ointing today. But McLaren can definitely challenge for P2 in the constructors. They need Oscar to find more consistency in the racing.”
