NICOS DAUGHTER 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 — Laura 🦋 (@formuLau16) July 6, 2025 It was a huge moment in Hulkenberg's career as he finally reached the podium at the British Grand Prix with a superb drive. A dramatic Silverstone race saw the veteran racer overcome two safety car periods to move up to the fourth spot from the 19th, closing in on Lance Stroll.

During a press conference afterwards, Hulkenberg was asked by second-placed Oscar Piastri if he was happy to pick up only a plastic Lego trophy instead of the usual precious metal prizes.

A bit of silver or gold would have been nice too, but I won't complain," he said.

I still remembered how to do [spray the champagne]. I used to do it a lot in the juniors, and I've had to wait for quite a bit," he said, having got the crowd that anticipated Hamilton's maiden Ferrari podium cheering for him. 'I always knew we had it in us, that I had it in me somewhere. What a race, coming from the back of the grid, doing it all over again from last weekend– it's pretty surreal. 'To be honest, not sure how it all happened, but obviously crazy conditions, mixed conditions. It was a survival fight for a lot of the race. I think we just were really on it, the right calls, the right tyres in the right moment, made no mistakes. Quite incredible," he added. First Published:
