i disagree, i think its a no win for Nico, unless he trounces Michael - If MS beats him then he's lost to a man whos had a couple of years out, has a dodgy neck and is 41. if they are close then the same applies, why hasn't he managed to get the best of the old guy.

Michael will undoubtedly have lost a little of the old magic, it would be impossible for the couple of years to have not dulled his skills, albeit he'll still likely be well above average on the grid! but you'd expect the supposedly very quick and far younger guy to be able to take him over the course of the long season. i doubt that he will though and the onus will be on Rosberg failing rather than Michael being too good, after all Massa, when still improving, was getting pretty close to Scumacher and beating him on occasion in the last year he raced. anything less than that and i think Rosberges rep might be permanantly damaged

Fair enough. I guess it depends on which side of the fence you sit. I'm a Nico fan and as such I believe that Nico will win his first GP early next season and he'll beat MS to do so.
