'You know how this business works, so I think quite a bit of pressure on him there to deliver now in F2 actually.'
While Oliver Bearman has had his name linked to a Haas seat next year, Nico Hulkenberg believes there is now “quite a bit of pressure on him” to deliver in Formula 2.
Hulkenberg joined that praise for the 18-year-old, with the Briton having already taken part in his first FP1 sessions with Haas last season. “But I think obviously, he raced there last year in F2, he’s done F2 quali and stuff, and I think he’s done quite a lot of simulator stuff for the for the F1 car, too, so it looked that he felt at home very quickly, and it looked like he was well prepared.”
“I think it’s very early and way too early to say that,” Hulkenberg responded to the possibility of one of the current Haas duo having to part the team for the teenager.
