Nico Rosberg describes how Lewis Hamilton “seriously hurt” him.

Nico Rosberg, the 2016 Formula 1 World Champion, admitted that he was “seriously angry” after Lewis Hamilton won the ‘Duel in the Desert’-style race at the Bahrain Grand Prix in 2014.

The third race in the new hybrid era of Formula One was the 2014 Bahrain Grand Prix, and Mercedes had won.

Because of this, Rosberg and Hamilton frequently engaged in conflict, and Bahrain was no exception.

In that instance, the seven-time World Champion prevailed over the German after an incredible struggle.

Rosberg claimed at the time that the fight had been the “most fun” he had ever had in Formula One, which he now admits wasn’t the case.

Speaking on the Sky Sports F1 podcast, the former Mercedes driver acknowledged that Hamilton’s victory in Bahrain left him feeling “seriously hurt and seriously angry.”.

Rosberg admitted to the Sky Sports F1 podcast, “I remember myself in Bahrain.

“Wow, that was the most fun I’ve ever had in a racing car,” I exclaimed following the race. But in actuality, that was the furthest thing from the truth imaginable.

“Because the truth is, I was seriously hurt and angry after coming in second place to Lewis, and it was absolutely no fun.

“We have to occasionally channel Hollywood as race car drivers.
Naturally, you can’t always tell the truth because doing so will only cause problems.
“.

Rosberg brought up Charles Leclerc’s peculiar reaction to losing to Carlos Sainz at the Italian Grand Prix last weekend, which caused the Monegasque to come in fourth, as he was talking about this.

In a battle for the final podium position at Ferrari’s home race, Sainz defeated Leclerc.

Rosberg initially questioned whether the 25-year-old’s response on camera was genuine, but Leclerc seemed happy for Sainz.

In fact, he believes Leclerc’s joy for Sainz was “pretty genuine,” leading Rosberg to believe the Ferrari star is “a little bit too nice.”.

“I was watching Charles, he just got beat by his teammate who also ran him off the track once,” said Rosberg.
Yes, that was really enjoyable, says Charles as he sits there.
Good times, drinking a beer with Carlos.

“And I thought, ‘Is this now genuine?
Or is he pulling a Nico, you know?’ and saying the exact opposite of how he feels.

“But I believe it to be fairly genuine.
In that case, I was pondering the possibility that he might be a little bit too nice of a person.

“Because he already lost on the plan.
Because he didn’t insist on splitting Carlos’ slipstream at the end of qualifying the day before, the team was able to give Carlos the slipstream twice.

“He should not have allowed Carlos to have double slipstream in qualifying; it should have been one person first run and the other person second run.

“I’m not sure, so. Maybe he’s just a really nice guy, but that might be a bit too nice.
