Rosberg sits in the same seat as Einstein and JFK!

Nico Rosberg was a distinguished speaker of Oxford Union yesterday, an honor bestowed upon the former F1 driver by Britain's third oldest University Union.

To many, the Union is best known for its high profile speaker events. From politics to religion; science to the Arts, the venue has hosted a diversity of world leaders, some inspiring, others controversial.

But Oxford also hosts sporting legends, with the reigning world champion - a man of many interests - its most recent guest.

"I had the honour of speaking at the Oxford Union about my time in F1 and what my plans are for the future," Rosberg said.

"It was great to see the depth of knowledge in the room and incredible to think I sat in the same room as some of the all time greats like Einstein and JFK."

Nico produced a short video of his day at Oxford, check it out here below.
