Rosberg has been unstoppable since Lewis Hamilton was crowned world champion and he got an easy win at Abu Dhabi, leading the race from start to finish. Besides the three wins on Saturday Rosberg had achieved its sixth consecutive pole position. Domination at the end of the season can definitely give an extra motivation for the 2016 season.
