Nico Rosberg has responded to Max Verstappen labelling him the "new Jacques Villeneuve" in the wake of comments the 2016 world champion made after the Belgian GP.

In a special #AskCrofty in the Monza paddock, 2016 world champion turned pundit Rosberg explains why Verstappen took umbrage with him and what the Dutchman meant by likening him to Villeneuve, himself a former title winner.

"I made that comment and he didn't like it too much!" says Rosberg, back with Sky Sports F1 at the Italian GP.
