Nico Rosberg is a big fan of the new cockpit design set to be introduced next season in order to improve safety.
Kimi Raikkonen modelled the new design in pre-season testing for one lap today, and said that visibility was okay.
The design has been criticised for being ugly, but Rosberg says it is crucial if drivers are to remain safe.
"It's a big thing. I just felt like putting it on my Facebook this morning to see what the opinions are out there," he said.
"My opinion is it really is a massive step in safety because most of the fatalities we've had in racing in the last years.
"This would have saved those people, so it's a huge step, definitely needed.
"OK, visually, you can say it's not quite as good as now, but from some angles, like from the front of Kimi's car, it looked very cool actually.
"With a bit of thinking, it can look cool eventually, so I'm all for it."
