8.01.2025 Nico Hulkenberg on similarities with Verstappen: Max gives results regardless of the generation of cars and conditions

Hulkenberg highlighted the quality that sets him and Verstappen apart. Nico Hulkenberg, who is moving from Haas to Sauber, emphasized how important it is for a driver to adapt to the cars and conditions.
The German driver did not agree that ground-effect cars were particularly suitable for him, and cited Red Bull rival Max Verstappen as an example.
No, I don`t look at the situation that way. Ultimately, what matters is how you feel, whether you have confidence. If one percent is missing, it`s already a problem.
But there are different examples of pilots. At the same time, there are racers like Max, who give results regardless of the generation of cars, conditions, or regulations. I have the same feelings about myself.
Of course, I had ups and downs, even with the old generation of cars - it didn’t work out in Renault. But this is due to circumstances. As I said, the feeling in the car is more important.
Regulations and machines change every five or six years. Therefore, a pilot needs to be able to adapt and retrain. “If you’re only good at one car and don’t develop and adapt, then your career in Formula 1 will be relatively short, ” Nico reasoned.
