A year ago, Nico Rosberg was in the middle of the best month of his life as he married his long-term partner Vivian and Germany won the FIFA World Cup. Rosberg was initially going to run a special tribute helmet with the World Cup trophy on top, but a copyright complaint meant he was forced to change it last minute to feature stars symbolising each German victory. The good run continued at Hockenheim, though, as he then won his home race.

Andrew Lewin

Andrew first became a fan of Formula 1 during the time when Michael Schumacher and Damon Hill were stepping into the limelight after the era of Alain Prost, Nigel Mansell and Aryton Senna. He's been addicted ever since, and has been writing about the sport now for nearly a quarter of a century for a number of online news sites. He's also written professionally about GP2 (now Formula 2), GP3, IndyCar, World Rally Championship, MotoGP and NASCAR. In his other professional life, Andrew is a freelance writer, social media consultant, web developer/programmer, and digital specialist in the fields of accessibility, usability, IA, online communities and public sector procurement. He worked for many years in magazine production at Bauer Media, and for over a decade he was part of the digital media team at the UK government's communications department. Born and raised in Essex, Andrew currently lives and works in south-west London.
