With the World Cup kicking off over the weekend, what video could be better than watching your favorite F1 team getting in on the action?  Demonstrating the MERCEDES GP PETRONAS team’s love of the World Cup, Michael Schumacher, Nico Rosberg and Nick Heidfield show off their football skills in the pit. Of course, the F1 stars also take the opportunity to wish good luck to the German national team and give a little extra incentive for Germany’s world championship push.  Finally, Nico takes the German football players Lukas Podolski and Bastian Schweinsteiger in the Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG for a bit of a joy ride around the countryside.  And, in case you missed it, Germany beat Australia 4-0, and their next match is June 18th against Serbia (the U.S. team tied England 1-1).

You can watch the MERCEDES GP PETRONAS football video in its entirety below.
