Rosberg disappointed with 'unprofessional' Verstappen
F1 News
Nico Rosberg is disappointed with Max Verstappen. The German considers it unprofessional of the Red Bull Racing driver that he was sim racing late into the night.
Max Verstappen was up late from Saturday to Sunday, racing for several hours for Team Redline. The Dutchman competed in his team's 24-hour race and therefore did not go to bed until around 03:00 Dutch time. According to Rosberg, Verstappen should take an example from Lando Norris.
Why Rosberg is disappointed with Max Verstappen
"I was quite impressed, actually, because he [Norris] has learned how to become a more professional athlete. When he started F1, especially against Ricciardo, he wasn't really trying to be perfect as an athlete. Last night his bedtime was 11:05, not 11:00, 05. Wake up was 8:05, and breakfast was already set, like exactly what to eat. So he was hyper-professional, which was nice to know."
"At the same time, in contrast, you have Verstappen, who until 3:00 a.m. last night was sim-racing. That's a bit disappointing, isn't it? It just shows that he's too used to his ease of domination," Rosberg revealed to Sky Sports.
