Berger: “Rosberg wants to win the title while risking as little as possible”

The showdown between Nico Rosberg and Lewis Hamilton about to arrive. If the Englishman is pushing hard to obtain an almost unexpected result, it is on the strategy that the German is basing his victory.

Although Rosberg continues to repeat that he is fighting for victory as always, it is clear that his latest outings have been more focused on prudence and non-risk. The former champion and family friend of the German is also convinced of this Gerhard berger: “He wants to win the title at the checkered flag and with as little risk as possible. He has kept a cool head and knows well that a third place will be enough in Abu Dhabi."

Berger has no doubts about Rosberg's merits and the positive sides of his way of driving and engaging on the track: “He actually doesn't have the basic speed that Hamilton has – he said – but he has other positive sides. He is a disciplined driver who works very well, with diligence and ambition together with the engineers. In the end, only the result counts, which is always the sum of your abilities."

According to the former Ferrari and McLaren player, neither of the two contenders will be a better champion than the other: "Lewis, of course, is a good guy, but on Sunday the best will only be the world champion."
