2016 Formula One champion Nico Rosberg believes former Mercedes teammate Lewis Hamilton can surpass Michael Schumacher's records for the number of wins and number of titles after becoming a five-time champion at the Mexican Grand Prix.
Hamilton's fourth-place finish at the Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez was enough to secure his fifth world title, moving level with Juan Manuel Fangio and to within two of Schumacher. He is also within striking distance of Schumacher's record race win tally of 91, with Hamilton currently sitting on 71 grand prix victories.
Rosberg -- who beat Hamilton to the 2016 title -- reckons he can now look to become F1's all-time greatest driver by breaking Schumacher's records.
