Nico Rosberg was reminded of a 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Mercedes team order which aided 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lewis Hamilton, when discussing McLaren’s ‘papaya rules’.

F1 team orders have come 🎀under the microscope due to McLaren’s refusal to prioritise either Lando Norris or Oscar Piastꦬri, despite being in contention for the drivers’ and constructors’ championships.

Norris and Piastri’s tussle at Monza arguably contributed tꦅo opening the door for Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc to win the Italian Grand Prix.

Natalie Pinkham was referring to McLaren’s drivers on the Sky Sports F1 podcast but she delivered a reminder to Rosberg which he might ha൩ve preferred to forget.

“You don't want to see your team-mate winꦦ a world championship in a car that you knew you could potentially have won it in, as well,” she said.

“I mean, that's got to be the worst…”

Rosberg, of course𓆏, was the Mercedes teammate of Hamilton who won the F1 championship in 2014 and 2015 as they drove identical machinery.

“It’s the most horrible thing,” Rosberg replied.

“In my championship year I wa♔s i💯n a direct fight with Lewis Hamilton.

“I was r🅷unning second in Monaco in the rain. Daniel Ricciardo was disappearing into the distance.

“Our te♏am rules mean𒊎t I would have let Lewis by, in that moment. I actually let Lewis past, on team orders. My direct championship rival!

“That’s horrible. In the car, it’s ho💖rrible. Definitely not fun.”

Rosb🐟erg was told that c🎀omplying with team orders must go against the instinct of any racing driver.

“And everything the tea༒m has promised you, also, whe♈n they brought you on,” he replied.

Thankfully for Rosberg, he conquered Formula 1 in 2016 while stillꩵ a Mercedes teammate of Hamilton’s.

The Monaco Grand Prix that Ros♉berg was referring to eventually resulted in a vic🐬tory for Hamilton.

At the time, T𒈔oto Wolff said about the order for Rosberg to let Hamilton through: "For any driver it is very difficult to accept such a situation so we looked at it for a number of laps and hoped for the tyre to switch on.

“We debated it for quite a long time but it was clear there was a⛎ problem in the [Rosberg] car - it was almost like we had a damaged car.

“To understand the situation was grea🔥t team pl🌄ay from Nico. Not once did he question it."

Rosberg would have the final say in 2016, becoming F1 champion before r🍸etiring🦂 on a high.
