Finally! Hulkenberg Claims First F1 Podium After 239 Races

Nico Hulkenberg has finally made Formula 1 history by claiming his first podium after 239 race starts. The 37-year-old German driver finished third in the British Grand Prix amid wet conditions at Silverstone.

In a chaotic rain-affected race, Hulkenberg fought his way from last on the grid to secure a podium position. Lando Norris won his home race, while Oscar Piastri finished second.

“It feels amazing. It’s been a long wait, hasn’t it? But I always knew we and I had it in us,” Hulkenberg expressed after the race.

“It was a survival fight throughout the race. We made the right calls with tires at the right moment and made no mistakes. Simply incredible,” he added.

A fierce battle unfolded in the closing laps as Lewis Hamilton mounted a charge in front of his home crowd. However, Hulkenberg maintained his composure to secure his historic podium finish.
