German Formula 1 driver Nico Rosberg displayed some extraordinary racing in 2016. Finishing on the podium on 16 occasions out of 21 races, Rosberg was almost clinical in bagging the Drivers’ Championship.

The season belonged to Nico Rosberg right from the start who was driving for the Silver Arrows. With 4 consecutive pole positions in Australia, Bahrain, China, and Russia, he was leagues ahead of everyone.

A retirement at Spain and a 7th and 5th at Monaco and Canada broke his streak. However, Baku saw him finding his way back to winning ways.

Rosberg’s win is not the only memorable moment from the 2016 European Grand Prix.  An incident following the race was the point of attraction. Clinching the pole from Sebastian Vettel, Rosberg was right on track.

However, the incident where Rosberg interviews himself is what stood out that weekend. Soon after the race, he was seen walking towards a Dutch TV. He decides to walk away hilariously and then returns.

Nico Rosberg gave a self-interview?

“Okay let’s go! C’mon! No question, I talk?”

Rosberg was seen baffling the reporter with his presence and sense of humor. Failing to receive a question from the reporter, Rosberg decides to speak on his own.

“I’m really really happy, but I have run out of questions! But I guess you had your answers.”

However, the German Professional racer was quick to assess his achievements and decided it was the right time to say goodbye.
