Nico Rosberg says that former teammate Lewis Hamilton must keep focus to win this years title, despite being 59 points ahead of nearest rival Sebastian Vettel in the championship. Rosberg beat Hamilton to the title last year before suddenly retiring, with their relationship growing sour as their partnership progressed.
Rosberg won last years championship after four years as Hamilton’s teammate, with three of those in cars that were almost certain to win the championship. The German pointed to last years media row over his Snapchats taken in the middle of a press conference as an example of the sort of distraction Hamilton needs to avoid in order to secure the championship.
