Ecclestone bets on Rosberg and Mercedes in 2014
Bernie Ecclestone reveals his predictions for the upcoming season. He foresees Rosberg winning the drivers' championship and Mercedes the constructors' title.
With the difficulties faced by Red Bull and the engine supplier Renault that equips the new RB10, some are concerned that Sebastian Vettel may not be able to defend his world champion title to the fullest. This is the case for Bernie Ecclestone, head of Formula One Management: “Anything can happen with the new regulations,” he analyzes in an interview with the Indo-Asian News Service (IANS).
« That’s why I don’t want to speculate too much on what might happen this season. Considering how things went during the private testing in Jerez last week, Mercedes is the most advanced team and I can see Nico Rosberg winning the title. »
The answer will come next November at the end of the season.
