What is your favourite F1 track in the world and why? I’m looking forward to your comments - Spa is just an epic track! Top comment winner will receive an exclusive surprise! Subscribe now so you don’t miss my latest F1 & Hypercar videos: bit.ly/NicoRosbergYT
It is just crazy that a world champion is so in touch with the fans. The fact that you are so open and honest about believing in yourself is amazing too, that can be an huge inspiration for today's youth. You are an absolute legend man!
Idk I think most of it has to do probably just running a really stiff load cell brake. Anyone that has runs one will know that you have to react in a similar fashion especially if youre trying to nail a hard braking zone like the bus stop chicane.
@8:00 "you have to remain 5cm off the white line..." Yeah, this is what an F1 driver is all about. Coming in to that corner at speeds that would make me blackout (even in a road car), and you're measuring centimetres to avoid a sliver of paint because it's a bit damp... It's at this point I'd like to give a shout out to the guys at the back of the grid - they might not be winning races, but they are still doing the same thing in a car that they can't even trust. Hats off to those drivers - hopefully soon, someone will give George Russell a good car soon !
Thats how i feel too. Everyone saying some f1 racers are "bad drivers". NO. Every f1 driver has amazing racing skills in some way. They just make it look easy to drive those rocket ships
it's funny how Nico explains things like either the game were extremely real or we are all potentially going to Formula 1 one day. Nico, I love your explanations. This kind of video has given me a new sight of how one of the best drivers you are!
22:40 Nico on confidence - you could see that when he was battling Lewis he would get totally stressed out and it showed in interviews etc. Now that he's retired you can see he's in a much happier place.
Expensive simulators have "real feel" brakes, where you have to apply quite some force to actually break, like in a real car. That's why he is "pushing" his body
@@kelvinadimas8851 that also might be the case, but still he has to apply a lot of pressure on brakes. I've played few times on those simulators, those brakes are no joke, they're really hard to press.
I like that an actual F1 driver, let alone one that has won a driver championship, is giving me pointers on this, thank you so much!!!! This is awesome!
Suzuka is unmatched. The first sector is so hard but nailing it on f1 2020 with no assists is golden. The entire track after the Dunlop curve, spoon, 130R and the Casio triangle are all great corners in their design and their history. Not the best to overtake but a quali lap there is sweet :)
We can see how you are used to the real thing, preparing for the incoming heavy breaking G Force shortly after 15:43, then move the muscles of your face in the direction where the Gs would throw you in the chicane hehe !!
Yup, until the end user simulators like Asetto Corsa or IRacing can somehow simulate g forces and let your neck distroyed after one lap these things will be only games, far and away from the real thing.
@@slew9900 g force create numbness and hard to breath, it's really dangerous if you're a rich kid just playing while in quarantine, motion rig is by far the best option here
I’m a new fan to F1 and Spa has to be my favorite track. It’s so iconic. Your technical insight to the track only makes me respect the track even more. Thank you
This channel is insane. He is basically disclosing insane ammounts of valuable info, learned from years of experience at the highest level. Realy good content!
Favorite F1 track, Circuit Gilles Villeneuve... Apart from the fact I live in Montreal, the history behind the track, the numerous grand prix it had held over the years, the people who have won there, it's all stuff of legends, not to forget the unforgiving wall of champions, and those mean straights, you win at Gilles Villeneuve, you are a world champion in the making!
I think it also has to do with his brake pedal. In one of his resent videos he said it was really hard, so I think he really has to stomp on it to actually brake.
I live all the way down in Windsor and make the 8 hour drive every year since I was 16, I simply LOVE the whole weekend in Old Port, the festivities, I saw Arton the last year he drove On Gilles Villeneuve, I believe if memory serves he DNF'd.
These videos are so great. It’s fascinating to listen and watch how an F1 drivers approaches these tracks. So many little details. Loved the one around the 13 minute mark about doing all the down shifting in one go towards the end of the braking to not upset the car as much. Great stuff! Please keep these videos coming. Thank you.
My favourite would be imola, it's got a great balance of fast straights and tight and hard braking zones, plus we've got great memories from it but one that isn't so great
"I haven't seen one of these race simulators for a few years. These latest sims are incredible. Even the weathers spot on, because every time i've been to Spa..... "its bloody pissed down!"
Dude your videos are getting better and better each time I watch. It's very quickly becoming not just my favourite F1 content but my favorite content to watch in general. Thanks for the effort. From a World Champion no less.
He’s starting a family life not a dangerous driving life, you have to respect his choice. He has achieved his life ambition of being an F1 driver now is the next chapter in life. You will understand when you get older :)
@@stephen729 its still very dangerous, remember Anthoine Hubert? Its a horrible example with the worst that can happen, and thats f2 with less horsepower
Spa for sure. It's the most beautiful, high speed, thrilling, scary and multi faceted track with a range of everything. Long straights, different types of corners, longest lap distance, highest elevation changes. Then there is also the gorgeous backdrop and environment where it's located. I have always loved it and think it's the highest skilled track circuit on the calendar.
I hope Nico continues with these series for both, dry and wet. If he does, it would become some of the most invaluable resources online when it comes to racing information.
I imagine the generation or generation after nexts world champion will be watching Nico's track analysis videos right now, getting tips for before he even finds himself in a racecar.
I was miss judging this man, I thought he was just a pompous guy who only cared about fame, but now i see that he really has this passion for racing and cars , and he knows where he is and where he wants to go , very wise man with a very strong will, new suscriber, respect.
I used to hate Nico when he was fighting it out with Lewis but he is actually a top guy, I love when he is on Sky and always stiring up trouble with what drivers and teams say about each other. These TH-cam videos are also amazing !
Interlagos, great track, start/finish straight is just awesome, greatly complemented by Senna S, so much elevation change. So many epic races, specially in wet,
Man I love these videos Nico. They are so informative and much appreciated. It’s like F1 drivers ED. I like when you tell us the Brake Bias you use because it’s very much the same as mine and it’s good to know I was using the correct bias in game to real life. Thank you for these videos. Their awesome.
Thanks, Nico. The wet lap was very educational. The thing that surprises me most about your commentary is how many times you said to limit the upshifts and downshifts when the tires are being loaded to produce lateral grip. I had previously thought that the shift algorithms for F1 gearboxes would manage torque during the transients and allow the driver to shift without concern for upsetting the car. And you also said at the start of the lap to drive in one gear higher than you would in the dry. During the wet lap, you were also adjusting your line to keep the outside wheels of the car off of the laid-down rubber, and to avoid turning in standing water. These are all kinds of things that I do in my old Camaro, so I feel validated! I'm going to link this to my track buddies, then maybe they won't think I'm crazy for driving off-line in the rain.
My favorite track on the calendar is Paul Ricard, because it has the best overtaking and has produced amazing races over the years since its return, the big run-off areas also make it very exciting because the drivers have a massive margin for error so they are never on the limit, like they would be in Monaco, where they are all scared to do anything
Spa because it has very fast sectors with curves and sectors locked with medium speed curves and ends with a chicane in 2nd gear! Beautiful. Greetings from Argentina Nico!
You're the best Nico, thankyou for doing these 'tutorials'. A few weeks ago I decided to drive the Monaco track for all 78 laps just to see what it's like...I NEARLY DIED from exhaustion; I've never been to tired and stressed out, and this was just me alone on the track with no g-forces etc etc. It would be great to see a Monaco tutorial and hear from you what it's like.
Spa. Feels like you are going somewhere. The weather and the scenery. The flow. The importance of getting the laps right, as there are so few of them during a race. Thank you, Nico. Great analysis. Might be the longest lap I've ever seen at Spa. Miss you on track. Happy you are involved in commentating on Sky, and here.
I think Monaco because it's such a beautiful spectacle and the qualifying is so intense, though spa is definitely a close second. I'm also only a very new f1 fan and can only talk about the few grands prix I've seen in the past 15 days, and honestly finding your channel has been such a pleasure and is a great insight for a new fan like me and it makes you appreciate a lot more the pressure the drivers are put under and all the fine details that can make a difference so thank you!
Nico Rosberg is such a good host, I like his informal approach to this channel. Very conversational and makes you feel like you're involved with the discussion even tho he's just talking by himself.
Absolutely - its also been on the F1 calendar just about every year since 1950 - and has a lot of history associated with it, both good and bad. Plus, its easy to get to - just take the train and then you don't have any traffic jams.
My most favorite track is Circuit Gilles Villeneuve in Canada. I really like the flow of the track, fast corners after straights where every mistake cost you lot of time and speed. Casino corner where exit is super important and then Wall of the Champions before finish line.
Nico you definitely need to give a comeback man.. You still have a lot of knowledge about each tracks and the turns that come in it.. You look like you can do racing again someday.. Maybe you definitely need a comeback for sure
My favourite track is Singapore. I always love when F1 go there, the atmosphere is great with the race being in the night. The track itself is really cool and challenging, also I love the sound of the engines when the cars do 250+ kph right in the middle of the city. It isn’t always easy to overtake there but the races are always very exciting due to the walls sometimes coming a bit to close, that combined with the heigh temperatures makes the race really demanding for the drivers, something that we all want to see!
Thanks for your great commentary last week on SKY... it was great to hear your live analysis as the in car camera showed them during their lap and the little tips like Lewis’s engineer rubbing his foot on the track to get the grip off the track before the start... I wish more ex-drivers gave us these types of subtle tips that an average viewer like myself would never even know to look for... all the best, oh and nice to see you and Lewis communicating again.
On a side note. It's amazing to get these insights from a world champion of the era to give us such insights on how to drive a track. Nico is one if the most down to earth F1 drivers IV encountered, there is no ego he gives credit where due I dunno just seems like such normal dude, living an extraordinary life but with the same emotions, doubts struggles we all go through. Another great "master the track".. I always thought that comment Louis made about it's the first time in 18 years was so petty. He forgets Nico was first to win an F2 championship I think & also got a seat in F1 before Louis.. it's strange because Nico welcomed him to the team and always supportive before Louis had his tantrum in monico
I like Kimi, love F1 because of him. But this guy is something else, inteligent, i mean this explanation of Spa is awesome. Plus, he managed to win against Lewis. You Ser have my full respect and admiration!
My favorite track is Monaco, a part of the triple crown, the iconic unchangeable layout and the prestige. It is also a very hard track and you have to be very brave to overtake. It is the jewel in the F1 calendar.
Thanks for the awesome commentary and analysis Nico. It's amazing how many things are going on simultaneously at such a fast pace and having to manage it all. You guys are from a different galaxy.
I always love Monaco, to me it is the epitome of F1, the great street racing, low margin of error, and the glitz and glamour of the wealth of all the boats, the Royal Family and it being the home track of many drivers.
Favourite F1 Track is Monza, the history with the old track looming on the inside, the run through the thick old forest that has seen decades of racecars wiz by. The tifosi, even if you are not a Ferrari fan you have to respect the energy of the crowd. And it has the best podium of any track by far. The fact they built it to come right over the crowd for the ceremonies! *kisses fingers
It's always a pleasure of mine to watch someone who knows exactly what they are doing. Its a satisfying feeling. Japanese chefs making ramen is another therapeutic exercise I'd recommend.
Hello Nico, big fan! Even the legendary Spa witnessed one of the most boring races ever. Even Max thinks so. Honestly, these days after turn 1 there is no real racing happening and it doesn't look good on F1. What do you think can make F1 more competitive? What changes do you think can bring more excitement to the sport? Would love to hear your views.
Can we just stop for a moment and appreciate the F1 2020 rain graphics? It looks really realistic, perhaps more so than in the dry. And also, thank you Nico for these amazing track analysis videos!
My favourite track is Circuit Gilles Villeneuve in Montreal. It was my first and only F1 race, and it also came just after the birth of my first child. It was 2011 and one of the best races ever, especially since I was a Button fan. I couldn't believe the sound of hte V8 engines, we could hear them from miles away from the track, and trackside they would shake your body. My father in law and I sat out in the rain forever waiting for the restart and were rewarded with an amazing finish, especially since we were sitting at the Turn 6 stands and went crazy when Vettel half spun with Button chasing him. It was so excited I watched the race again at home.
This was awesome, thank you Nico for doing this. It’s great insight and you also clearly understand the engineering of your car to high level unlike some other drivers. I never thought I would get this kind of analysis from a world champ. Keep them coming!
Thank you, Nico, it is really a joy to watch and listen to someone with the real experience and a true champion to share his vast knowledge and experience. Keep up with god work. Greetings from Osijek, Croatia. :)
Hey nico. Your content is so good. Even your description is so helpful to break down the video for people who don’t have lots of time. Lots of respect from England🏴🇬🇧💯

My favourite F1 track is the Sochi Autodrom because it has got so much history, character and plenty of great corners.
Lol
sarcasm on a whole new level lol
and so many corpses
😂
Capitalize last letter If you're held hostage.
Love Nicco’s ability to explain the “why” of F-1 on technical issues like camber and bias. He’s amazing.
The way Rosberg react to heavy braking you know he has experienced real 6g braking
14:52 is a good example.
15:43 is probably the best example- into the 2nd gear corner.
He’s not really reacting he’s just stomping on the brake really hard which moves his body
Idk I think most of it has to do probably just running a really stiff load cell brake. Anyone that has runs one will know that you have to react in a similar fashion especially if youre trying to nail a hard braking zone like the bus stop chicane.
Ohh yeah now I get it. I was wondering why he was stamping the brake so hard.
I love how Nico calls the wet areas “rivers”..
I call them rivers of living water
I guess he doesn't refer to the areas where there is rainwater but where there is water flowing over the track
yo uh so with yesterday’s race…..
@@cesarcanul8699 um... so about that day........
@8:00 "you have to remain 5cm off the white line..."
Yeah, this is what an F1 driver is all about. Coming in to that corner at speeds that would make me blackout (even in a road car), and you're measuring centimetres to avoid a sliver of paint because it's a bit damp...

Expensive simulators have "real feel" brakes, where you have to apply quite some force to actually break, like in a real car. That's why he is "pushing" his body

I wish more ex-drivers gave us these types of subtle tips that an average viewer like myself would never even know to look for... all the best, oh and nice to see you and Lewis communicating again.
Nico Rosberg - the most interesting and insightful voice in F1!
On a side note. It's amazing to get these insights from a world champion of the era to give us such insights on how to drive a track. Nico is one if the most down to earth F1 drivers IV encountered, there is no ego he gives credit where due I dunno just seems like such normal dude, living an extraordinary life but with the same emotions, doubts struggles we all go through. Another great "master the track".. I always thought that comment Louis made about it's the first time in 18 years was so petty. He forgets Nico was first to win an F2 championship I think & also got a seat in F1 before Louis.. it's strange because Nico welcomed him to the team and always supportive before Louis had his tantrum in monico
Real F1 drivers teaching us how to drive a track in a game.
Guess we're not in the worst possible timeline after all
You Have to Live It haha, just what I was thinking. That game is close to photo realistic too, watching Nico drive and explain it is just a joy.
Dbz reference?
Not just any F1 driver, the one who beat Hamilton to World championship.

I like Kimi, love F1 because of him. But this guy is something else, inteligent, i mean this explanation of Spa is awesome. Plus, he managed to win against Lewis. You Ser have my full respect and admiration!
My favorite track is Monaco, a part of the triple crown, the iconic unchangeable layout and the prestige. It is also a very hard track and you have to be very brave to overtake. It is the jewel in the F1 calendar.
Idk why people hate it, the history and challenge is what make it so good. Also it has the third best set of corners the pool section
Unchangeable...
@@mypenishuge3499 Also, there have been a lot of good races there, remember the 1996
Thanks for the awesome commentary and analysis Nico. It's amazing how many things are going on simultaneously at such a fast pace and having to manage it all. You guys are from a different galaxy.
George Russel must have been listening
This is the best explanation of the reasoning for lines and braking point yet! Love these videos
This video became very relevant today
I always love Monaco, to me it is the epitome of F1, the great street racing, low margin of error, and the glitz and glamour of the wealth of all the boats, the Royal Family and it being the home track of many drivers.
Favourite F1 Track is Monza, the history with the old track looming on the inside, the run through the thick old forest that has seen decades of racecars wiz by. The tifosi, even if you are not a Ferrari fan you have to respect the energy of the crowd. And it has the best podium of any track by far. The fact they built it to come right over the crowd for the ceremonies! *kisses fingers
It's always a pleasure of mine to watch someone who knows exactly what they are doing. Its a satisfying feeling. Japanese chefs making ramen is another therapeutic exercise I'd recommend.
Hello Nico, big fan!
Even the legendary Spa witnessed one of the most boring races ever. Even Max thinks so. Honestly, these days after turn 1 there is no real racing happening and it doesn't look good on F1. What do you think can make F1 more competitive? What changes do you think can bring more excitement to the sport? Would love to hear your views.
I love that short shift at 14:56 and i wish you could comeback in f1. “hamilton’s nemesis.”
More like Hamilton's nightmare, and blame gamer for everything that went wrong with his poor car in 2016, Sir Cry Baby.
You reckon George Russel watched this during the week?
Can we just stop for a moment and appreciate the F1 2020 rain graphics? It looks really realistic, perhaps more so than in the dry.
And also, thank you Nico for these amazing track analysis videos!
My favourite track is Paul Ricard so many overtaking opportunities and it has produced the most entertaining 2019 f1 race
Thank you for another Master the Track video Nico.
Great track, you made it look easy in the hot lap.
0:06 is that Precision Sim Engineering GPX steering wheel ?
My favourite track is Circuit Gilles Villeneuve in Montreal. It was my first and only F1 race, and it also came just after the birth of my first child. It was 2011 and one of the best races ever, especially since I was a Button fan. I couldn't believe the sound of hte V8 engines, we could hear them from miles away from the track, and trackside they would shake your body. My father in law and I sat out in the rain forever waiting for the restart and were rewarded with an amazing finish, especially since we were sitting at the Turn 6 stands and went crazy when Vettel half spun with Button chasing him. It was so excited I watched the race again at home.
Bahrain because of the battle you had with Lewis in 2014
This was awesome, thank you Nico for doing this. It’s great insight and you also clearly understand the engineering of your car to high level unlike some other drivers. I never thought I would get this kind of analysis from a world champ. Keep them coming!
Why does he look like Jack Nicholson in the thumbnail lol
Little pigs, little pigs! Let me come in. 😏
Or a young Sting....
Thank you, Nico, it is really a joy to watch and listen to someone with the real experience and a true champion to share his vast knowledge and experience. Keep up with god work. Greetings from Osijek, Croatia. :)
My favorite track: spa because I actually took the bus to school over the bus stop chicane 🚌
🤣

Came here after George's P2 qualification
ngl this is my fave series on TH-cam rn, always so excited for these at the end of the week!
me: hmmm yes yes now i can destory f1 2021 multiplayer plebs

Hey nico. Your content is so good. Even your description is so helpful to break down the video for people who don’t have lots of time. Lots of respect from England🏴🇬🇧💯
Would be really cool to see you do a race and talk through your decisions of when and where to overtake
Spa. Barcelona. Silverstone. Monaco.
The meta doesn't change how much I personally love these tracks.
this guy is good at f1 2020 he should race irl
nico. the detail insight you give is absolutely awesome and unheard from anyone else. thanks!
Com'on Nico, pls come back to f1, it's boring without you at the front.
Im addicted to this series man! Rosberg is such a cool guy
