Nico Rosberg has been praised by technical executive director of Mercedes Paddy Lowe.
Rosberg enters the final four races of the season 33 points ahead of Lewis Hamilton and is favourite to take this years world championship.
Lowe has praised Rosberg for his strength and the ability to prove himself among the elite.
"Nico is an incredibly strong driver," said Lowe. "The step that he has made this year is that he has improved his racecraft considerably.
"He's proving himself much better able to fight for the positions," he added. "A few incidents that didn't quite come off how he wanted, but overall that's where he has made the step."
Rosberg himself didn't comment on the comments made by Lowe as he knows he has been performing well.
"I can’t comment on that, with all due respect," he said. "It’s good to hear him complimenting me and saying that I made progress in certain areas.
"What can I say to that? I’ve been feeling good anyways," he added. "It’s an ongoing process for me, pushing in all directions and just trying to be better every time. That’s what I love doing, pushing myself also to get to higher levels.
"The best reasoning [for taking it race-by-race] is that it’s actually working quite well, so why change something if it’s working quite well with the approach that I’ve got at the moment."
