Will Nico Rosberg live up to the reputation of his father, world champion Keke Rosberg? It's too soon to tell. Nico finally scored his first Formula One points. Quote from Nico:
"I wasn't perhaps expecting today would turn out so well, but I started last year's first race from 12th place and finished 7th, so I thought I could maybe do it again given my qualifying position. I have taken the best out of our car today and I was particularly happy that overtaking Ralf was successful.
I was taking a chance of course, but you've got to try it and it was good for the team. The new regulation requiring us to use both tyre types mixed it up a bit and although I did suffer some graining late in the race, it didn't matter because I didn't have anyone close in front or behind me. At the next test in Malaysia we have to improve to keep progressing."
Rosberg should begin to distinguish himself in F1. No one can keep his job for long by placing seventh unless you're David Coulthard.
