A full 14 years before their friendship would be tested in front of the F1 media glare, Hamilton also beat Rosberg to the 2000 Formula A European Championship.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:true,&quot;134233118&quot;:true,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Rosberg graduated to the 2002 German Formula BMW Championship with VIVA Racing. He won nine times to score a dominant championship victory in his first season in cars. Having a famous father had its advantages but if he owns a Formula 3 team then so much the better! Nico drove a Team Rosberg\u00a0<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Dallara<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">\u00a0F303-Opel in the 2003 F3\u00a0<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Euroseries<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">\u00a0and finished on the podium during the season\u2019s first two weekends.

Nico remained with his father\u2019s team for his second F3\u00a0<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Euroseries<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">\u00a0season which began with a double victory at Hockenheim to suggest a challenge for the 2004 title. However, he only won once more (at the N\u00fcrburgring) as incidents and accidents hampered that campaign.

Despite being delayed by an unscheduled pitstop, he set the race\u2019s fastest lap and finished in a points-paying seventh position on his debut in Bahrain. Third on the grid for round two in Malaysia reinforced that early promise and he came from last on the grid to finish seventh at the N\u00fcrburgring. However, he did not score again after too many \u201crookie\u201d mistakes.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:true,&quot;134233118&quot;:true,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Williams switched to Toyota engines in 2007 and Rosberg showed increased maturity during his sophomore campaign. He generally outshone the experience Alex\u00a0<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Wurz<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">\u00a0\u2013 especially in qualifying \u2013 and scored points on seven occasions (including a career-best fourth at\u00a0<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Interlagos<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">) as he finished ninth in the final standings.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:true,&quot;134233118&quot;:true,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Rosberg\u2019s third season with Williams included moments of rich promise that ultimately prompted thoughts of what might have been. Third in the 2008 Australian GP and second in Singapore delivered his first podium finishes although it was an inconsistent campaign. However, that performance under the Singaporean lights should have been rewarded with victory. Rosberg pitted as the safety car was deployed following Nelson Piquet\u00a0<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">jr\u2019s<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">\u00a0crash \u2013 prompting a drive through penalty for Rosberg and handing victory to Piquet\u2019s team-mate Fernando Alonso. It emerged a year later that Piquet had crashed to order; making a victory that had got away all the more galling for Rosberg.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:true,&quot;134233118&quot;:true,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">A fourth and final season with Williams proved to be Rosberg\u2019s finest so far. The Williams FW31-Toyota was one of three new cars to be designed with a \u201cdouble-diffuser\u201d at the start of 2009. He regularly scored points \u2013 including fourth place finishes in Germany and Hungary \u2013 and was seventh in the championship. However, team and driver had now drifted apart and Rosberg sort pastures new.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:true,&quot;134233118&quot;:true,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Mercedes-Benz and Michael Schumacher<\/span><\/b><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:true,&quot;134233118&quot;:true,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Surprise 2009 World Champions Brawn Grand Prix were acquired by Mercedes-Benz that winter and the re-launched \u201cSilver Arrows\u201d opted for an all-new line-up for the 2010 World Championship. Rosberg was joined by none-other than the returning Michael Schumacher and he more-than matched his illustrious colleague. Rosberg won the qualifying head-to-head 15-4 and scored successive third place finishes in Malaysia (having qualified on the front row) and China at the start of the season. He matched that result at Silverstone and was well placed in Korea before being unable to avoid Mark Webber\u2019s crashed Red Bull.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:true,&quot;134233118&quot;:true,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Now something of an enigma, Rosberg finished the 2011 season in seventh position for a third successive year. He remained a prodigious qualifier and led at both Shanghai and Spa-<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Francorchamps<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">. But the Mercedes W02 wore its rear tyres at an alarming rate and Rosberg could finish no higher than fifth all season.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:true,&quot;134233118&quot;:true,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Victory at last and challenging for the title<\/span><\/b><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:true,&quot;134233118&quot;:true,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Rosberg\u2019s 2012 campaign was a strangely inconsistent season although it included his breakthrough victory after 111 unsuccessful attempts. The new Mercedes was perfectly suited to Shanghai and Rosberg converted a first F1 pole position into his maiden Grand Prix victory with ease. He was second at Monaco before the team lost its way with Rosberg finishing amongst the top five just once more.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:true,&quot;134233118&quot;:true,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Schumacher retired from F1 for the second time at the end of the season and was replaced by Lewis Hamilton at Mercedes. It is to Rosberg\u2019s immense credit that he responded to being paired with F1\u2019s fastest driver with such aplomb. With a rivalry dating back to childhood, they pushed each other all season. Unhappy by team orders in Malaysia, Rosberg responded with victories in Monaco (from pole position) and Silverstone to finish sixth overall and gain new respect in the F1 paddock.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:true,&quot;134233118&quot;:true,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">The new turbocharged Mercedes W05 was by far the quickest car of 2014 and the team-mates fought an at times tetchy duel for the World Championship. Rosberg won the Australian, Monaco, Austrian and German GPs and seemed to take control after they touched at Spa-<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Francorchamps<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">. However, retirements in Britain and Singapore and a string of Hamilton victories saw the momentum swing back to the Englishman who only confirmed a deserved title when Rosberg suffered a technical problem at the final round. While the championship was lost, Rosberg won the qualifying battle and with it the FIA\u2019s new Pole Position Trophy \u2013 no mean feat when compared to a driver of Hamilton\u2019s renowned outright pace.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:true,&quot;134233118&quot;:true,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">The Mercedes team continued to set the pace in 2015 and Rosberg won the Spanish, Monaco and Austrian GPs before the summer break. However, it was Hamilton who dominated qualifying during that crucial phase of the season as the Englishman established a commanding lead in the points. With the title lost and confirmed as runner-up once more, Rosberg enjoyed a fine end to 2015 \u2013 qualifying on pole position for the last six races and winning the final three Grands Prix to suggest a renewed title challenge in 2016.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:true,&quot;134233118&quot;:true,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><span data-contrast=\"auto\">2016 World Champion and retirement<\/span><\/b><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:true,&quot;134233118&quot;:true,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Rosberg continued that form at the start of 2016 by winning the opening four races\u202fto give him an early 43-point lead over Hamilton. High speed contact at the start of the Spanish GP and on final lap in Austria resurfaced old wounds as Hamilton re-established himself in the championship lead by winning six mid-season races in seven.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;134233117&quot;:true,&quot;134233118&quot;:true,&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">However, victory in Singapore gave Rosberg the points lead once more and Hamilton\u2019s Malaysian engine failure left him the master of his own championship destiny. Rosberg did everything required of him for the rest of the season to clinch the title by finishing second in the tense Abu Dhabi finale \u2013 World Champion by five points, 34 years after\u00a0<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Keke\u2019s<\/span><span data-contrast=\"auto\">\u00a0moment of glory.
