In the Nico time

Is Nico Rosberg still the hot prospect he was two years ago after a disappointing season with Williams in 2008? Adam Cooper sat him down for a chat to find out

For Nico Rosberg, 2009 is potentially a make or break season. This is his fourth year with Williams and, although much will depend on how the team fare during what will be a difficult time for everyone in the sport, he needs to deliver before his reputation as one of the stars of the future slips away.

It's hard to ignore the fact that some major sponsors have left the Grove outfit, and still others are in well-publicised difficulties. While team sources insist that all is well financially, life won't be easy.

Patrick Head and Sam Michael have certainly embraced the challenge of KERS.
