Prost: “Rosberg has shown he is very strong”

It will be a fight to the last point with Nico Rosberg having a serious chance of beating his teammate. This is the opinion of the French Formula 1 legend Alain Prost on the outcome of the 2016 World Cup.

Se Hamilton he's won the last two titles and has made an incredible recovery in the middle part of the season, it's incredible the world in which Rosberg he got back on his feet after the summer break, regaining the lead in the world championship with three victories in a row.

“Nico had a fantastic weekend in Singapore – Prost told Canal Plus – on Saturday he got pole and on Sunday he was in full control of the race. It wasn't a good weekend for Hamilton, not at all competitive or consistent."

Hence Rosberg's very high chances of triumph: "Before Singapore it seemed that Hamilton was more competitive but last weekend Nico proved to be a very strong opponent."

The fight between the two will continue point by point until the end: “In Mercedes we have seen that if one driver does very well, the other a little less. We haven't really seen a wheel-to-wheel battle, but it seems likely to me that it could happen before the end of the season."

“The outcome of the title – he concluded – will depend on the details, on the psychology, on the effectiveness in the starts and possibly on the other cars that will interfere in their fight”.
