Video: Rosberg takes his W07 for one last spin and a selfie!

In a spectacular display of multi-tasking, 2016 world champion Nico Rosberg took his victorious W07 for one last spin at a Mercedes function recently while snapping a series of high-speed selfies!

Fortunately, Nico's wicked ability behind the wheel permitted the heavy duty work but we obviously wouldn't advise anybody to try this at home...

Phillip van Osten

Motor racing was a backdrop from the outset in Phillip van Osten's life. Born in Southern California, Phillip grew up with the sights and sounds of fast cars thanks to his father, Dick van Osten, an editor and writer for Auto Speed and Sport and Motor Trend. Phillip's passion for racing grew even more when his family moved to Europe and he became acquainted with the extraordinary world of Grand Prix racing. He was an early contributor to the monthly French F1i Magazine, often providing a historic or business perspective on Formula 1's affairs. In 2012, he co-authored along with fellow journalist Pierre Van Vliet the English-language adaptation of a limited edition book devoted to the great Belgian driver Jacky Ickx. He also authored "The American Legacy in Formula 1", a book which recounts the trials and tribulations of American drivers in Grand Prix racing. Phillip is also a commentator for Belgian broadcaster Be.TV for the US Indycar series.
