A biography for Nico Hulkenberghasn’t been written yet.
“If you make mistakes, you pay for them.”
“I find it interesting as every year people say the midfield is as tight as ever but it is always tight, it is always competitive. I've pretty much spent my entire career in the midfield so I know about it!”
“I'm not desperate to stay in Formula One. It needs to be sensible and it needs to be the right deal.”
“The fact that people are regarding me as the team leader doesn't change much. At the Sauber F1 team both drivers get the same equipment and treatment.”
“I can't lose any more weight. I would very much like to be 10cm shorter and 10kgs lighter. It would make my life a lot easier but it is what it is. What can I do?”
“I'm in the factory a lot so I see how hard the guys work, but you never really know how quickly and effectively the other teams' development programmes are going until you get to the track. It's only then that we will be able to tell.”
“Of course I would love to battle for victories and be up the front but it's always about where can you be, what are your alternatives.”
“I feel comfortable in my skin.”
“I am happy to come back to Sahara Force India.”
“If I have a problem with somebody, I go ahead and say what's on my mind.”
“Sometimes I think I'm a bit impatient, and a bit more patience would help me in some cases.”
“Yes, the sound of the new V6 engines could have been a little bit better, but it is just one of those things that you get used to with time.”
“Sometimes, especially when you are in the traffic behind other cars, you get a lot of stuff - sand, oil - and if that mixes up that can be very bad for the vision sometimes.”
“It's an amazing experience for me, coming from the F1 environment and to see a race like Le Mans.”
“It's important to drive consistently to evaluate changes that are made to the car. You need to be very accurate with your feedback and communicate as much information as possible.”
“I'd like to have some good races and score points.”
“I love being at home! We travel a lot so I really enjoy being at home, having a lazy day on the couch, watch a couple of movies, meet friends, cook dinner, go to the cinema, play tennis.”
“I believe in hard work and good decisions and the rest it will come or it doesn't.”
“Well you always have your favourites, and least favourites, I'm generally a cardio person, I love running that's what I enjoy the most from everything that I do, and swimming is the least favourite and the toughest for me because I'm not so good at it!”
“To be honest, all my career I've been at one number, I have my fighting weight, my happy place and that's 78kgs.”
