Normally I just cannot stand Rosberg, but I'd like to see more aggressive moves!
But I think Rosberg needs to improve his racecraft. He cannot just keep doing the same move like Austria. His intention was good, dive into the last moment, thus missing the apex, but I think he could've done more cleaner.

If he could've adjust his technique, dive into the corner (brake a bit earlier than he does now), aim for the late apex, but leave just enough room for opponent. Or turn in the corner together with the opponent, then slightly push him out at the corner exit when he was ahead.

We've seen a lot dancing and overtaking at the hairpin, and ROS was the only one who received the penalty.

His move against MAX and HAM in Austria just looked desperate and a bit clumsy IMO. He can't just radio claim "Oh I went full lock" and thinking the stewards in 2016 can allow that. Keep in mind stewards now are expecting overtaking like a ballet dancing, not wheel banging in the good old days.
