Damm this small cars really made drivers do aggressive and entertaining overtakes

"Almost had me ? You never had me. You never had your car."

They need to make the cars smaller it's getting absurd.

That was so close what if he changed the brake bias at the last second and makes the move

17 year old rookie giving a tough time to champion with beast of a car..

[nenuphar]

Verstappen bossed him multiple times that season

Guys that’s the 2016 world champion who beat Lewis in equal machinery, and finding it difficult to overtake a 18 year old Verstappen and people have the audacity of questioning him

[LeeMillerTIME]

I actually wish Rosberg stayed in the sport for longer. He’s a real talent and he probably had even more potential than he showed us. But massive respect to him for hanging his F1 gloves up when he achieved what he wanted to achieve ❤

So weird seeing the f1 cars without halo 😱

[marnevanvliet]

So sad we didnt get more Max versus Nico action after 2017😢

Verstappen has always been a beast... The overtake tried is for few pilots.

Piquet on Senna in Hungary for example.

Won't see this level of racing at Montreal/Canada GP.

Max actually held Nico Rosberg back for a few laps before the failed over take.

[klapsigaarenbasgitaar]

Such a pity Rosberg retired so early.... F1 would have looked so different in the years that followed.

[raymonde]

Im so old, I hear Rosberg and think Keke.

[AAb-xyet]

Amazing what Max can take out of this much much much worser car then his opponent has.

alternate title: Verstappen puts the clamps on Rosberg

[OTM-BandiT]

Rosberg knows how to race. Notice how he doesn't try to hold on to threads on the outside the entire corner and then cry "he pushed me off track!!" Like we see today. He sees it's not there and Max is defending and will inevitably go wide, and he tries to cut it back for a over under/ live to fight another day or set him up again on the next lap. Great racing.

It was quite obvious in 2016 what would happen years later.
