Sorry to list again - but that's the photo!! Absolutely typical Rosberg! The bodywork is all B45 - including the characteristic goal post rear wing set up as opposed to the monopost wing on the B39. Its possible that this was in practice and Rosberg moved to the B39 chassis for the race.
I would also draw your attention to the naughty appendage on the nose of the car.....Rumour has it that he had a similarly sculpted gearshift lever - can you imagine that happening nowadays? Well no - there wouldn't be enough room would there?
As Chris noted earlier, Rosberg raced B45-78-04 at Macau, but failed to finish. Paul Owen told me that Rosberg's mechanics were Derek Bennett (the other one) and Barrie Green. The world gets smaller once again.
