Hulkenberg: “I had fun in qualifying”

The premises of the free practice were perhaps better than what actually occurred, but in the end the Force India he managed to place at least one of his single-seaters among the top ten positions on the starting grid of the English GP.

“I really enjoyed myself today especially with the fresh tires and little fuel – he declared Nico Hulkenberg, 11th and 9th – I didn't make any mistakes and everything went smoothly. Without updates, however, I think it would have been impossible to obtain such a result. Our pace over the distance seems good, however those ahead of us are competitive, so it won't be easy to finish in the points."

“I'm disappointed about not getting through to Q3 also because the VJM08 had the potential – the thought of Sergio Perez, 13th and 11th – Not a great weekend for me so far, however the B version of the car is a big step forward. I'm sure that in the race I will be able to fight for the top ten."
