  • Hey guys, it's Nico here! :)
    Thought I'd upload this old compilation of footage from when I was a kid driving go-karts across the world. Some really fun family moments and worth watching until the end.

    Hey Nico respect to your Father for putting that much effort and passion into turning making you one of the best F1 drivers ever, and of course respect to you for paying him back with the World Championship Trophy.

    If you think it was hard for Nico to succeed in the racing world having all the karts his father could afford, having your own track at home and expert advise from a wolrd champion. Imagine how hard it must be for kids that their parents work extra hard to afford one kart and pay to rent a track for the kid to do his runs and practice.
    Kudos to Nico and a round of applause to all that even struggling financially win because of their raw talent. And their parents for the awesome dedication, even without knowing if it will payoff.

    Most people don't realise the work and dedication needed to be a succesful racing driver. I myself am a driver, you start doing karting at a very young age, and as you progress it starts becoming your entire life, racing week in week out, with nothing on your mind than to get the best result possible. You train every day to achieve your goal, missing in school a lot of times even, putting everything aside just for this. Some are lucky enough to make a career out of it, for some like me one day you get to a level were you need a lot of money to progress further. Wich most of us don't have. Then you are left with nothing. No education, no future prospects. You only know how to be a racing driver because from the age of 6 that's all that you have done. Looking at this just takes me back to the karting days, I'm very sad I couldn't achieve my goal of becoming a full time racing driver just because of money. And there tens if not hundreds other like me. I'm happy that you have achieved your goal. And I totally understand why you stoped, it's the only sensible thing to do for you as you know have a family. Grüsse von Frankreich Nico, ich hoffe das du alle deine nächste Ziele schaffst!

    This has really been his entire life. I feel nico wants to be there for his kids the way his dad was there in this video and if he continues tomrace and be on the road and away from home all most the hole year and his kids may never get into racing. Think of hus retirement as an investment in another generation of the Rosbergs being on the F1 grid👍

Unfortunately, he's not in this world anymore, but the memories will never fade away. That's what really matters.

We all knew theyd both be in F1 just a matter of when. The resources they had were huge, they had their own team with like an old F1 truck and already back then their karts were designed as the F1 McLaren. Even remember the name MBM.com. Following F1 and Karting was so intresting back then. Saw him race Schummi at the Karting World Championship in Kerpen, great memories too
