Nico Hulkenberg

I can't lose any more weight. I would very much like to be 10cm shorter and 10kgs lighter. It would make my life a lot easier but it is what it is. What can I do?

You've got to distribute the tyre life over the stint, I think that's the main limiting factor, more than car balance.

I'd like to thank the management at Force India for giving me the chance to return to Formula One as a team driver.

Sometimes, especially when you are in the traffic behind other cars, you get a lot of stuff - sand, oil - and if that mixes up that can be very bad for the vision sometimes.

You don't get that opportunity everyday to do Le Mans with Porsche, a brand that has so much tradition and history. So I just grabbed the opportunity while it was there.

For me I think the sport is as good as it is, I really personally miss the sound a lot of the old engines, the V8s, the V10s. That is personally my biggest regret or miss, what is lacking I think with the sensation of Formula 1, a lot of people associate also with that.

As a part of the Renault family, I want to develop the car and write new success stories.

It's important to drive consistently to evaluate changes that are made to the car. You need to be very accurate with your feedback and communicate as much information as possible.

The fact that people are regarding me as the team leader doesn't change much. At the Sauber F1 team both drivers get the same equipment and treatment.

My first pole position is an emotional and hopefully historic moment as I want to be in F1 for many, many years.

Yes, the sound of the new V6 engines could have been a little bit better, but it is just one of those things that you get used to with time.

I feel excited about my new home in F1. I am looking forward to working here and of course I am especially looking forward to driving the car for the first time.
