The High Performance Podcast · Nico Rosberg: The F1 Champion Who Disappeared (E414) · 1 Jun 2026 podcast

It's season one.

When you come in as a 20-year-old, and as I said before, I'm not the super confident person.

So I come in more worried.

Am I good enough to be in this sport with the gladiators, you know, on the grid next to Michael Schumacher?

My God, like, I felt completely like a fish out of water, like completely out of place.

Like, what am I doing here?

This guy's like the greatest, you know, and I'm on the grid next to him.

It doesn't add up.

So that is... And then I also got into a situation where I had a really bad car.

So I had a team full of feeling-wise army generals who had no idea what empathy meant.

So it was just like... So the team being full of army generals, the car being a disaster and breaking down all the time, plus me personality-wise being on the younger side, less confident side than some others maybe.

And so it's a really difficult situation to get into because you also know as a young driver, look at Kimi Antonelli last year, you only really have one shot.

If you fail in the first year and you get kicked out, it's 95% that your career in F1 is done.

And that's what Kimi Antonelli was going through last year.

He was really so close to being 50-50, whether the team retains him or kicks him out.

It was literally, I mean, it was very close.

Without knowing it, just looking from the outside,

it was really touch and go because it was just so hard to see, is he really going to be able to turn this around and actually perform in a good enough way to be worthy of staying in F1 and with Mercedes?

Because at times in the season, it was so bad what he was doing.

Mistakes and being slow and this and that, it was really struggles.
