Nico Rosberg: How the 2016 world title was won

Motor Racing - Formula One World Championship - Mexican Grand Prix - Race Day - Mexico City, Mexico

With the championship a possibility at a circuit he excelled at in 2015, Rosberg was somewhat disappointing in Mexico as Hamilton outperformed him throughout the weekend. Survived a brush with Max Verstappen at the start - and a later one with the same driver after the Red Bull closed in - to take second place but never threatened Hamilton, who took a crucial win to ensure the battle continued to Brazil as the gap closed to 19 points.
