Jac acredita que deveriam ter mantido Schuamcher
Merc should have kept Schu, not Rosberg - Villeneuve
Jacques Villeneuve says he does not think Mercedes has made the right choice in pairing Lewis Hamilton with Nico Rosberg next year. The 1997 world champion does not, however, question the German marque's decision to poach Hamilton from McLaren.
Instead, Villeneuve wonders about his former title nemesis Michael Schumacher's exit.
"Why is he stopping?" the 41-year-old told Switzerland's Motorsport Aktuell.Jacques Villeneuve says he does not think Mercedes has made the right choice in pairing Lewis Hamilton with Nico Rosberg next year. The 1997 world champion does not, however, question the German marque's decision to poach Hamilton from McLaren.
Instead, Villeneuve wonders about his former title nemesis Michael Schumacher's exit.
"I don't understand. Hamilton-Schumacher would be much better than what they do have for next year," the outspoken Villeneuve insisted.
But German Rosberg insists he is "very happy" with how he has compared against the great Schumacher since 2010, even though the pairing have been more closely matched this season.
"It's true that Michael has had bad luck, but so have I," Rosberg told Germany's Auto Bild. And in their qualifying head-to-head in 2012, Schumacher and Rosberg have been very evenly matched.
"As far as qualifying is concerned, there is nothing special to say about it," Rosberg insisted. "For three years I have had the upper hand, which is more than I had expected at the beginning. I am very happy with it," he added.

Na verdade, o que senti nessas declarações do Jac foi ele se colocando no lugar do Schumacher de uma maneira soliadária, até. Jac demorou a se acostumar com a ideia de que a F1 não era mais uma realidade para ele. Foi, voltou e não se deu bem na volta, assim como Michael, seu grande rival na categoria. Agora, ele vê o alemão em uma situação difícil e nada mais natural se colocar ao lado de Schuamcher seu contemporaneo. Vi as críticas desta forma e não algo pessoal contra o Nico. Uma vez que na estreia do filho de Keke, o próprio Jac foi um dos que mais elogiou o então moleque de 21 anos, em 2006.
Nico está tranquilo na Mercedes. Fez até agora o que o carro permitiu. Venceu e marcou pole quando a Mercedes rendeu. Para mim, deve o piloto que senta o bumbum em foguete e não faz nada. Esse sim é o piloto que deve ser criticado.
