Hülkenberg can't wait to return to Silverstone

In Valencia, Nico Hulkenberg crossed the finish line in fifth position despite some KERS problems on his car. After a checkered start to the season, Force India is back in the game and intends to confirm its progress during the British Grand Prix at Silverstone. “ This is the result we needed to stay in touch with Williams and Sauber in the championship », explains Hülkenberg. “ It's a boost for me, but I think it's the kind of result we've been waiting for for a while now. We could have done just as well in Canada, but things didn't go our way so it was good for us to score a few points in Valencia and show our true potential. It is true that there were a few retirements during the race, but we still had to do the job and that is what we did.»

Based in Silverstone, the Indian team will play “at home” this weekend and will make some changes to its car in order to aim for the podium. The 2009 GP2 Series champion is eager to return to the British circuit. “ I have good memories at Silverstone, both in the GP2 Series and in Formula 1. I can not wait to return to. This is one of those races that puts a smile on your face when you think about certain corners. I would say that it is an “old-school” circuit since the track is narrow and you really have to be brave in the fast part of the lap. It?s very fast, but also a lot of fun when you complete the perfect lap. »
