Yahoo Autos Hulkenberg tells Haas to stay cool after practice P3 in Spain
Nico Hulkenberg says it isn’t realistic to target a repeat of his top three result from Friday when qualifying begins at the Spanish Grand Prix.
Haas expected the high-speed Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya to suit its car and Hulkenberg duly delivered an eye-catching soft-tire run in FP2 that left him third behind Max Verstappen and Fernando Alonso, just 0.27s from the fastest time. While encouraged by the feeling he had from his car, Hulkenberg said he expects others to move ahead on Saturday.
“I think today it looked genuine but I guess other people underperformed or underdelivered,” Hulkenberg said. “Especially there was a lot of top cars that I think will find something overnight and pick it up.
