Nico Rosberg has been the only man to top Lewis Hamilton over a season in recent years and he believes the five-time world champion is one of the best in history, “but not invincible”.
Rosberg got the better of Hamilton in the 2016 season which came right down to the wire with Rosberg clinging on following a heated Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.
The German retired following his only world title leaving Hamilton to dominate and the 2016 champ believes the Brit is one of the all-time greats.
“Well, the problem is that you need Rosberg to defeat him, that's the problem ...” Rosberg joked in an interview with Marca.
“But invincible, no, he is not invincible.

“He is only extremely good and one of the best of all time, but he also has his weaknesses, yes, and Sebastian did not manage to take advantage of them last year."
Rosberg credits Hamilton’s form in the second half of the season but believes motivation could play a part in any further success.
“He did not show any weakness in the latter part of the year, but if things do not go well in his direction, he may suffer a bad performance or motivation streak, and that is an opportunity for his opponents to give their maximum and that is what they need. search this year.”
