Nico's Sunday dog day afternoon

40

Those of you with long memories may remember that just over a year ago, Nico Rosberg added a new member to his family and entourage in the form of the undeniably adorable Bailey who was still a young pup this time 12 months ago, but a year makes all the difference and you can see just how quickly he's grown in the meantime

Bailey is clearly the apple of Nico's eye, but there's no word yet as to how Bailey is getting on with Lewis Hamilton's canine celebrity sidekicks Roscoe. The first meeting between them was apparently a bit tense, but with Bailey having grown so much in the interim it would be nice if the two dogs were now getting on better than their human masters have been managing to do in recent times!

Oh, want a picture of Roscoe to balance things out? Here you go then...
