Former F1 champion Nico Rosberg “I abandoned my identity when I retired from F1 at the age of 31”[F1-Gate.com]

Nico Rosberg has admitted he was “shocked” by his abrupt departure from F1 just days following winning his first and only title in 2016. The 37-year-old German lost his role as F1 commentator last year following refusing to be vaccinated once morest the new coronavirus.

However, Rosberg is back in the paddock this year and is now on the cover of the latest German edition of Men’s Health magazine. Rosberg has explained how he has dealt with his shock decision to retire from F1 at the age of 31, just five days following beating Lewis Hamilton to become the 2016 champion. “In a way I gave up my identity,” Rosberg said. “My whole life has been racing.” “I had to accept that whatever I did, I was going to start all over once more.” He is also active as an investor in companies focused on mobility. “I also invested a lot in knowing myself,” said Rosberg, who said his biggest challenge in the last 37 years has been “finding the meaning of life.”
