Mercedes started their dominace of Formula in 2014 when the hybrid era was introduced to the sport. But their dominance cost a once healthy friendship to turn into a fierce rivalry. Lewis Hamilton and Nico Rosberg went wheel to wheel with each other at the Silver Arrows for four seasons from 2013-2016. The Briton topped the German in three of the four, winning two World Championships (2014 & 2015) before Rosberg eventually got the better in 2016, to then retire soon after.
Take a look at some of the key moments that formed the rivalry between the two.
