Nico Hulkenberg: P9 in Australian Grand Prix

Hulkenberg finished ninth at the Australian Grand Prix F1 race at Albert Park Circuit on Sunday.

Analysis:

It was a rare double points day for the Haas F1 team and Hulkenberg would lead the way in his No. 27 machine. The veteran driver started 16th on the grid and would use a long opening stint to pick up much needed track position. After his lap 17 stop, Hulkenberg would be setup for the rest of the day. He would win a late race battle with Alex Albon and keep Kevin Magnussen at his backside to earn a strong ninth-place finish in Australia.
