By Ian Parkes, Press Association Sport Nico Rosberg has described himself as '100 per cent German' in the wake of Lewis Hamilton's latest playful dig at his Mercedes team-mate's upbringing. Following his superb British Grand Prix triumph on Sunday, Hamilton was asked how valuable it would be to win Rosberg's home race next up in Germany on July 20. Responding with a grin, Hamilton replied: 'To be honest Nico has never actually been in Germany, so it's not really his home race.'
