Mercedes-Pilot Nico Rosberg ist sauer auf Formel-1-Weltmeister Sebastian Vettel. Als "abgehoben" und "sehr unangemessen" bezeichnete Rosberg am Donnerstag einen Kommentar des Red-Bull-Piloten nach !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! . Weil Vettel bei der Siegerehrung erneut ausgepfiffen worden war, hatte er den möglicherweise Neid provozierenden Erfolg seines Teams !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! : "Wenn andere die Eier in den Pool hängen lassen, arbeiten wir immer noch hart für ein starkes Rennen."
Vor dem Großen Preis von Südkorea am Sonntagmorgen (8 Uhr, Liveticker SPIEGEL ONLINE) konterte Rosberg nun: "Er sollte sich weniger Gedanken über meine Eier machen und mehr auf sich selbst gucken." Wegen des Spruchs wolle er Vettel noch zur Rede stellen, kündigte der Mercedes-Fahrer an.
English Translation -
Mercedes driver Nico Rosberg is mad at Formula 1 world champion Sebastian Vettel. As a "lifted" and "very inappropriate" designated Rosberg on Thursday to comment the Red Bull drivers after his victory at the last race in Singapore. Because Vettel was booed again at the award ceremony, he had explained the potentially provocative envy his team's success with the sentence: "When others leave the eggs hanging out in the pool, we still work hard for a strong race."
Before the Grand Prix of South Korea on Sunday morning (8 clock, live ticker SPIEGEL ONLINE) Rosberg now countered: "He should worry less about my balls and watch more on themselves." Because of the spell he wanted to ask Vettel to speech, the Mercedes driver announced.
Rosberg is understandably miffed

This, I'd use Google translate, but it usually butchers things beyond recognition.

Before the Grand Prix of South Korea on Sunday morning (8 clock, live ticker SPIEGEL ONLINE) Rosberg now countered: "He should worry less about my balls and watch more on themselves." Because of the spell he wanted to ask Vettel to speech, the Mercedes driver announced. The Red Bull driver run "clear" danger to forfeit the respect of his colleagues by such statements. "My team is working your butt off," assured Rosberg.
Vettel had just been trying to qualify his comment. "It was not about to say anything against another, but to show that our success is no accident. We are one of the hardest-working team," said the championship leader. Before 14 of 19 races of the season in Yeongam Vettel leads the overall standings with 60 points ahead of Ferrari driver Fernando Alonso and is well on the way to his fourth title in a row.

Babelfish works better in translation but the quoted words are left alone.

That's got to be a German thing....I don't know what they did to eggs culturally....it involves pools let me check what google has to say about that.
...ok i didn't find anything but something involving invetro fertilization. That's probably not helpful

Sorry about that. Something swallowed the second paragraph with the translation. Post updated.

Essentially Vettel is saying other teams are goofing off at the pool while his team is burning the midnight oil and creating a race-winning car.

No worries. I wish I could read the German, but it's been ages since I studied it.

Eggs are slang for balls in German. If a man were in a pool and his balls hanging out of his swim trunks, he would be seen as a fool or idiot.
"If the other teams are shit and fools, we still work hard"

Vettel fan here, but he should shut up. With the championship out of reach for most they are going through motions for 2013. Winning a race when you are the only one who cares anymore is only stat padding. RB should be watching themselves more and dialing it back so they don't get embarrased for having DNFs a la Webber in Singapore.

You know, I'm normally first in line to call Seb a douche, but I have zero problem with a comment like this. RB is clearly still hard at work developing the RB9 while others have, understandably so, probably moved the majority of their focus onto the 2014 car; Newey must be feeling pretty damn good about the new regs.

I don't know about you, but I talk about my balls all the time. I can't not talk about them. They're that big. They just intrude into my everyday conversation because of their sheer size and steely roundness.

It's not hard to be the best if you throw more money at your car than anyone else....
