Nico Hulkenberg: focusing on family and ...

FORMULA 1
About this episode
Nico Hulkenberg will be on the grid again in 2024 after securing another year with Haas.

At the 2023 Mexican Grand Prix, the German will reach a landmark 200 Grand Prix starts – accumulated from his time at Williams, Force India (now Aston Martin), Sauber, Renault and Haas.

So how is ‘The Hulk’ that races today different to the 22-year-old that made his debut in 2010?

Nico tells Tom Clarkson how family life and his recent break from F1 have given him a completely different outlook on the sport, what his relationship with teammate Kevin Magnussen is like, whether Team Principal Guenther Steiner is just like the man we see on TV, and much more.
