The High Performance Podcast
Nico Rosberg: The F1 Champion Who Disappeared (E414)

You suddenly go 15 kilometers per hour quicker, which means that you get to that next corner in a way that you've never usually get there because you're suddenly 15 kilometers quicker in a race only when you're overtaking someone.

The High Performance Podcast
Nico Rosberg: The F1 Champion Who Disappeared (E414)

So he's doing the race, getting to that corner, always the same.

Nico Rosberg: The F1 Champion Who Disappeared (E414)

And then suddenly he comes up to Bruno Senna, this is in Barcelona, and hits the DRS.

The High Performance Podcast
Nico Rosberg: The F1 Champion Who Disappeared (E414)

And so his brain failed to remind him that this is a new situation.

The High Performance Podcast
Nico Rosberg: The F1 Champion Who Disappeared (E414)

He's going to get to the same braking zone that he's come to the last 20 laps with 15 kilometers more speed.

The High Performance Podcast
Nico Rosberg: The F1 Champion Who Disappeared (E414)

So you have to brake in a much earlier spot.

The High Performance Podcast
Nico Rosberg: The F1 Champion Who Disappeared (E414)

Because if you brake in the same spot, you're off.

The High Performance Podcast
Nico Rosberg: The F1 Champion Who Disappeared (E414)

And he braked in the same spot.

The High Performance Podcast
Nico Rosberg: The F1 Champion Who Disappeared (E414)

So he took out Bruno Senna in front of him and had a massive crash.

The High Performance Podcast
Nico Rosberg: The F1 Champion Who Disappeared (E414)

Because that was the only little thing that he was worse at, I think, than in his peak career.

The High Performance Podcast
Nico Rosberg: The F1 Champion Who Disappeared (E414)

And did you see that he was accepting that?

The High Performance Podcast
Nico Rosberg: The F1 Champion Who Disappeared (E414)

Or that he maybe... He was generally someone... I mean, he's very self-confident.

The High Performance Podcast
Nico Rosberg: The F1 Champion Who Disappeared (E414)

Yeah.

Nico Rosberg: The F1 Champion Who Disappeared (E414)

And also he's built so strongly on just passion for the sport.

The High Performance Podcast
Nico Rosberg: The F1 Champion Who Disappeared (E414)

He just loved racing and loved the sport.

The High Performance Podcast
Nico Rosberg: The F1 Champion Who Disappeared (E414)

So I'm sure it caused him mental struggles to be behind me and to be crashing.

The High Performance Podcast
Nico Rosberg: The F1 Champion Who Disappeared (E414)

But I think he dealt with them very strongly.

The High Performance Podcast
Nico Rosberg: The F1 Champion Who Disappeared (E414)

And in general still was enjoying the moment and the time largely.

The High Performance Podcast
Nico Rosberg: The F1 Champion Who Disappeared (E414)

Yeah.

And much more than most others would be able to in that situation because the media was bashing him pretty hard because the media was expecting he's going to come to Mercedes and win the world championship.
