Nico Rosberg is currently in California, making the rounds of prominent tech companies located in the Silicon Valley.

The reigning world champion has a genuine interest in technology and spent a lot of time in the Bay area last week visiting companies like Instagram and ChargePoint, and meeting with their founders to get a firm grasp on tomorrow's tech challenges.

Roberg also toured Stanford University, one of the world's leading centers for teaching and innovation, and an incredibly prolific breeding ground for many tech entrepreneurs.

In a short video posted on social media, the German confessed his interest in returning to school as he informed himself on various studying opportunities he may wish to indulge in next year at Stanford.
