I enjoyed reading these comments from Niki Lauda. Something to keep in mind when seeing Rosberg's comments.
“We were first and second and I don’t care if there is a quarrel, as long as Vettel was third,” said Lauda. “One thing is clear from my point of view, Lewis had pole position and controlled the race from the beginning to the end, therefore there is no need for a quarrel.”
“These guys... I call them egocentric bastards, and this is the only way to win a championship. It’s the oldest thing. There is no friendship out there. When you race you have to fight, that’s it.”
“Nico will calm himself down.”
“For sure, when you are being beaten by your team-mate it hurts. When I was being beaten by [Alain] Prost all the time I was not happy. On the other hand Nico is a guy who comes back quickly, so thank God there is only one week to the next race so all this talk will stop quickly when they start driving again on Friday.”
“Of course, Lewis bites, he has the talent to bite, but Nico is as nasty as he is if he sees the chance.”
