Nico Hülkenberg has no idea whether there is a future for him in Formula 1. The German does not have a seat for 2021 and has been associated with Red Bull Racing for a while, but does not want to say much about it.
The disappointingly performing Alexander Albon may lose his place next to Max Verstappen at Red Bull. Top advisor Helmut Marko announced last month that Hülkenberg and Sergio Pérez are in the picture as possible replacements.
“The situation in Formula 1 is quite unpredictable. When I was recently called up for Racing Point, it happened very spontaneously. Anything can happen. In any case I keep myself fit,” said Hülkenberg, who has no place this year either. in Formula 1, Monday on Austrian television.
“The seats are already divided in many teams. I had two chances this season (Hülkenberg was a substitute twice at Racing Point, ed.) And took them. I am in contact with some people, but I always do the first conversations myself. I let everything come to me. “
The 33-year-old Hülkenberg drove nine full seasons in Formula 1. He made his debut with Williams and then drove for Force India – the predecessor of Racing Point – and Renault, where he had to leave at the end of last year.
In the current Formula 1 season, fourteen of the seventeen Grands Prix have been held. Two more races are scheduled in Bahrain and one in Abu Dhabi.
