Nico Rosberg was reminded of a 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Mercedes team order which aided 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Lewis Hamilton, when discussing McLaren’s ‘papaya rules’.

F1 team orders have come under the microscope due to McLaren’s🎃 refusal to prioritise either Lando Norris or Oscar Piastri, despite being in contention for the drivers’ and cဣonstructors’ championships.

Norris and Piastri🐼’s tussle at Monza arguably contributed to opening the door for Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc to win the💞 Italian Grand Prix.

Natalie Pinkham was referring to McLaren’s drivers on the Sky Sports F1 podcast but she delivered a re🃏minder to Rosberg which he might have preferred to forget.

“You don't want to see your team-mate win a worꦕld championship in a car that you knew you could potentially have won it in, as well,🦩” she said.

“I mean, that's got to be the worst…”

Rosberg, of course, was tꦯhe Mercedes teammate of Hamilton who won the F1 championship🍃 in 2014 and 2015 as they drove identical machinery.

“It’s the most horrible thing,” Rosberg replied.

“In my championship year I was in ♓a direc💜t fight with Lewis Hamilton.

“I was running second in Monaco in the rain. Daniel Ricciardo was disap𝓡pearing into the distance.

“Our team rules meant I would have let Lewis by, in that moment. I actually let Lewis past, on team orders. ♈My direct championship rival!

“That’s ho♍rrible. In the car, it’s horrible. Definitely not fun.”

Rosberg was told that �🍨�complying with team orders must go against the instinct of any racing driver.

“And everything the team has promised you, aꦡlso, when they brought you oꦫn,” he replied.

Thankfully for Rosber♛g, he conquered Formula 1 in 20🌄16 while still a Mercedes teammate of Hamilton’s.

The Monaco Grand Pr෴ix that Rosberg was referring to eventually resulted in a victory for Hamilton.

At the time, Toto Wolff said about 🀅the order for Rosberg to let Hamilton through: "For any driver it is very difficult to accept such a situation so we looked at it for a number of laps and𝔍 hoped for the tyre to switch on.

“We debated it for quite a long t𒆙ime but it was clear there was a problem in the [Rosberg] car - it was alಌmost like we had a damaged car.

“To understand the situation was gr🎐eat team play fro𝄹m Nico. Not once did he question it."

Rosberg would have the final say in 2016, becoming F1 champion befor♔e retiring on a high.
