Steve Nash Jersey .C. -- Glenn Howard needed an extra end to move into the Masters Grand Slam of Curling final. Nico Rosberg says he would have lost sleep if he had spent time dwelling on the points gap to Mercedes teammate Lewis Hamilton in the championship this year.Rosberg had a 43-point lead over Hamilton after five rounds, but between the Monaco Grand Prix and the summer break saw his teammate not only catch up but take a 19-point lead of his own. In the last two rounds Rosberg has closed back to within two points of Hamilton and now says the title battle is on.Asked if he had ever worried that his title chances were over during the summer break, Rosberg said: No, because as I say I am not thinking about it. My belief to win individual races is as high as ever and I showed it today [at Monza] again and thats it, because its my best approach.Because if I think about 43 points going to 19, I would lose sleep over that. So I just dont think about it and enjoy winning thhe races.dddddddddddd.Rosberg won in Monza, but only after Hamilton made a poor start from pole position. Hamilton held a 0.5s qualifying advantage over the German, suggesting he had a significant advantage around the high-speed circuit, but Rosberg believes he had the edge on race pace.When we were practising for the race on Friday I was looking really strong and at least I felt really good and I could push Lewis really well in the race either way, if he was in front or behind me I had a chance to win.I confirmed that in the race, of course, and I was feeling good out there on race pace. I felt good on qualifying pace as well, but Lewis had his best day of the year, and when he has his best day of the year its difficult to beat him.
