Nico Rosberg told Autosport that he is fully committed to helping Mercedes GP build up as a team.

As much as he is comfortable there however, he would like to start winning races soon and top teams’ interest is tempting.

Rosberg insists there is nothing more to it than pure interest and he has no doubt that Mercedes GP will indeed be successful in the future.

"It is a fact that the team will have success, and everyone will agree on that. There is no reason why it won't.

"Come on: we have Mercedes-Benz, we have Ross Brawn, masses of other clever competent people working together. Mercedes is building the engine.

"But the big question mark is, when? Currently it looks like it is still going to take time, for sure. But Mercedes is very committed," Rosberg explained.

Ross Brawn has recently said he was hoping the German driver would give his team 'time' to achieve success, something Rosberg says he is ready to do... as long as it doesn't take too long.

"I am in a pretty strong position at the moment. I really have to see. The fact is that I would like to win races, at the same time that I am feeling very comfortable in this team. I just have to judge for myself how likely that is going to be that this team win races soon," he said.

McLaren, Ferrari and Red Bull Racing have all been linked with Nico Rosberg in recent days.
