2023 Fantasy Outlook

Hülkenberg is eager to return to a Formula One car as a full-time driver since his departure from the series in 2019, despite his recent filling-in for Sebastian Vettel at Aston Martin at the beginning of 2022. The German brings a lot of on-track experience (181 F1 starts) to Team Haas, in direct contrast to previous Haas driver and 2021 rookie Mick Schumacher, who could not quite muster up enough of a successful season last year to keep his seat with the team. In previous seasons with Renault and Force India, Hülkenberg has consistently been a Top-10 finisher, and Haas Team Principal Guenther Steiner is hopeful that the driver of the No. 27 car can call on some of his previous proficiency behind the wheel to deliver a satisfactory performance for Haas in 2023.

Another strong showing

June 16, 2025

Hulkenberg finished eighth in the Canadian Grand Prix F1 race at Circuit Gilles-Villeneuve on Sunday.

ANALYSIS
Hulkenberg finished with points for the second consecutive race weekend, and things went remarkably similarly to the Spanish Grand Prix. He began in a better grid position -- his 11th-place starting spot was the best of the season -- and he immediately jumped to ninth while Franco Colapinto and Alex Albon squabbled for spots on the opening turn. Hulkenberg retained the grid position for the rest of the race and then benefited from the retirement of Lando Norris. While the result was a bit flattering, the Kick Sauber is trending toward being a more competitive car, and Hulkenberg is getting corresponding results.
