Nico Rosberg of the Williams team claims that his goal for the 2008 season is to do better than last year.<\/p>\n
The British team impressed during the winter tests with the power of its FW30 equipped with a Toyota engine. This suggests that Williams could be one of the surprises of the year.<\/p>\n
However, Rosberg does not want to make predictions and says he simply hopes to make a step forward in 2008.<\/p>\n
\u00ab My only goal is to do better than last year, \u00bb he confessed to Autosprint magazine.<\/p>\n
The German driver who speaks French very well finished in ninth place in the 2007 championship, scoring 20 points.<\/p>\n
A few months ago, some rumors suggested he was headed to McLaren after making a strong impression in 2007. Today, he asserts that he never had discussions with the team and that he is happy to stay with Williams.<\/p>\n
\u00ab Now, I can say it: nothing ever happened with McLaren. I’m happy that Frank kept me. \u00bb<\/p>\n
Rosberg, GP2 champion in 2005, believes that the absence of traction control this year will not significantly impact the running order in 2008.<\/p>\n
\u00ab I have heard all sorts of things about driving without traction control, such as the fact that rookies coming from GP2 would be at a disadvantage or, on the contrary, have an advantage, \u00bb he added.<\/p>\n
\u00ab The truth is that after ten laps, I had already realized what I had to do. On dry surfaces, it will be the same. On the contrary, in the rain and during starts or in the first corners, there will be a difference. \u00bb<\/p>\n
In normal conditions, the driver will not count more than before, even if we will see a greater number of errors.<\/p>\n
\u00ab In a braking situation, the lack of anti-skid will be felt. This could give us a bit more chances for overtaking, \u00bb concluded Nico Rosberg.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
