F1i's Driver Ratings for the Belgian GP

Nico Hülkenberg (sixth, 8 pts) : 8/10

It wasn’t a great start to the weekend for the German, who didn’t find the right set-up and at times was even slower than Palmer. It wasn’t until Q3 that he put it all together to slot in P6. After a poor start, Nico battled with Alonso, then ran alone ahead of the Force Indias and the Haas’ who struggled to keep up with him. He equalled his best result of the year (Spain and England) to bring Renault to within nine points of fifth place.
