Nico Hulkenberg admits that he is relishing the fight in the constructors’ standings at next weekend’s Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. Toro Rosso, Renault and Haas occupy sixth, seventh and eighth in the standings respectively, and are all separated by just six points.
Hulkenberg, who has racked up 35 points for Renault this year, is hoping to come away from the season finale having secured sixth in the standings for Renault. With new teammate Carlos Sainz by his side, the German wants to complete his first season with the French manufacturer on a high.
“The constructors’ championship will go down to the wire for sixth in Abu Dhabi and I’m really relishing the challenge,” he said.
