Hulkenberg race deal for one season only
"I want to have a race cockpit again in 2013"
Wednesday 25 January 2012 - 09h01, by GMM
Nico Hulkenberg’s race deal with Force India appears to be only for a single season.
The 24-year-old, who sat out the 2011 season on the Silverstone based team’s reserve bench, has told Germany’s Sky Sports News HD that he will be working this season to secure his future.
"My goal is to establish myself in formula one," said Hulkenberg, whose promising new career was interrupted by Williams at the end of his debut in 2010.
"I want to have a race cockpit again in 2013," he insisted.
Hulkenberg said he should be ready to face off immediately with his new teammate Paul di Resta, who will begin his second consecutive season with Force India in Melbourne.
"I may have to polish off a little rust," admitted Hulkenberg, "but I’m relaxed and ready for the season."

Hülkenberg: I’m ready to return
3 February 2012
Nico Hülkenberg makes a Formula 1 comeback this year after being dropped by Williams and left on the sidelines in 2011. The 2009 GP2 Champion replaces Adrian Sutil at Force India, having taken up a reserve driver role within the squad last season.
“I saw the new car in the wind tunnel a few times and followed its progress during the winter,” the German said as the VJM05 was launched at Silverstone on Friday.
“It looks aggressive and fast, but we won’t know where we stand until we get out there and compete against the others. Preparations for the new season have been full-on with simulator sessions and lots of fitness training. I feel ready to get back to racing and I’m excited to find out what the new car feels like next week.”
Hülkenberg’s best finish to date is sixth in Hungary in 2010.
