South African Win May be German’s Last Drive
Whatever Marco Andretti is to the Indy Racing League, Hulkenberg may soon be to F1
Nico Hulkenberg, Germany’s teenage driving sensation, wins at A1GP South Africa. Manager Willi Weber may nudge his young star to F1, as he did Michael Schumacher, before the A1GP season resumes in March.
Remember him. Write it down. Burn this name into your cortex: Nico Hulkenberg.
If you’ve not been paying attention, A1GP’s Nico Hulkenberg has been destroying the competition amongst “The World Cup of Motorsports” teams.
In his most recent super-deed, Hulkenberg and his A1 Team Germany won this weekend’s South African A1GP race in Durban, SA. They won after sweeping to the pole and the sprint-race preliminary victory as well.

Nico is great indeed but we should also remember he’s got a great team behind him. As he told himself: “Thank you to the team, the car was great”. It’s not just words. Where are remarkable differences in funding between teams. Thus some teams can leave all engineering stuff to someone well experienced. For example, Germany actually is tuned up by well-known team Supernova. I think their input is not less than of Nico himself.
