“I have to disagree ever so slightly there, Danica.” Nico Rosberg jumped in, “Montreal is one of the hardest tracks of the year, because there’s so many bumps and at every curb you have to hit it so perfectly.”

Rosberg: ‘Hamilton has won all his records here’
“It’s a real driver’s track, which is why Lewis Hamilton has won all his records here, and even Max Verstappen has won all the last races, because the driver can really shine here” He highlighted the circuit’s narrow walls, heavy braking zones, and rapid chicanes as key elements that test a driver’s talent and bravery – far from what he would consider an “easy” layout.
“It’s every detail matters more than elsewhere, and it’s very hard to hit those curbs in exactly the right place, all the time and everything. It’s very, very challenging.”
Danica later backtracked on her initial comments, acknowledging Rosberg’s points: “For sure, there’s huge penalty for not being precise, and that’s hitting the wall, so I definitely agree there.”
