Rosberg: “I'll keep the pressure on Lewis”

Pole position for Nico Rosberg in the last race of the calendar F1 2014.
The German of Mercedes he will start in front of everyone, but above all in front of Lewis Hamilton, teammate and direct opponent in the race for the world title. There are 17 points between the two, but 50 up for grabs for whoever wins the victory in Abu Dhabi. Nico knows he can't make a single mistake tomorrow, but at the same time he hopes that a bit of luck and the riders behind him will give him a hand...

“Thanks to the engineers, the set up of my car was finally the way I like it – he commented Rosberg after winning pole – We did a great job together. I did two great laps in Q3, but Qualifying is just the first step towards a good weekend. I hope I can continue in the same situation as the last race and win but, as we all know, I also need some help for the title. It will be tough but these things often happen in sport. I will push as hard as I can and at the same time keep the pressure on Lewis high to try to make him make a mistake like what happened in Brazil and I also hope that the Williams manage to get between us."

“I have already offered to pay Valtteri for a wellness treatment this evening so that tomorrow he will be nice and relaxed and ready to have an excellent race… – joked the driver Mercedes – Let's see what happens! I am very motivated and happy with how today went. I want to say thank you for all the support received here. It's something new for me since I've never been in a position to fight for the title."
