I can foresee the press stating he's a more 'complete' driver, and we'll regularly see a lone Merc up jostling above its station in 4th/5th, picking off a McLaren, Red Bull, Massa etc - that's how I see it panning out, with Rosberg behind that train of cars.

It'd be more interesting seeing Nico up against Jenson - both smart, stable guys, without that ultimate X Factor in the dry.
