Nico Hulkenberg Unleashes the Power of Teamwork: How Rookie Gabriel Bortoleto Transformed His F1 Experience!

In an electrifying season that saw Sauber claw its way to its highest points total since 2012, veteran driver Nico Hulkenberg has opened up about the surprising impact his rookie teammate, Gabriel Bortoleto, had on his Formula 1 journey in 2025. Despite a fierce competition landscape that ultimately landed the team in ninth place in the championship, the duo’s synergy on the track has proven to be a game-changer!

Hulkenberg, who finally tasted the sweet nectar of a podium finish at Silverstone, was not just basking in his own success. He was equally impressed by Bortoleto’s remarkable ability to adapt and thrive in the high-octane world of F1. The Brazilian rookie didn’t just keep pace; he set the bar high with an impressive mid-season surge, showcasing his raw talent and speed, outpacing Hulkenberg in qualifying 12 to 11!

In a candid revelation, Hulkenberg acknowledged that the 21-year-old’s fresh perspective and driving techniques were not only commendable but also instrumental in honing his own skills. “Absolutely,” he declared when asked if he learned anything from his younger counterpart. “Being a rookie doesn’t mean you can’t perform or you don’t know how to drive. We’ve all been rookies at some point; it’s about seizing the moment.”

Bortoleto’s debut season was nothing short of sensational, featuring five top-10 finishes, capped off with a stellar sixth place in the Hungarian Grand Prix. This astonishing performance didn’t catch Hulkenberg off guard. “Gabi’s been very impressive on the driving side — his driving inputs and techniques are really strong,” he commented, emphasizing the importance of Bortoleto’s feedback in their collaborative efforts.

The dynamic duo has cultivated an atmosphere of mutual growth, often analyzing each other’s data to refine their approaches on the track. This camaraderie has become vital as Sauber gears up for a major transformation into Audi’s works team next season. With Hulkenberg’s unwavering experience and Bortoleto’s unfiltered speed, this partnership has set the stage for unprecedented success.

As the F1 world watches closely, the collaboration between these two drivers could signal a new era for Sauber, and perhaps, a shift in the narrative for rookies in the sport. The lessons learned on and off the track may just be the catalyst needed for this team to rise from the ashes in the upcoming seasons.

Stay tuned as we follow this thrilling journey of growth, competition, and relentless ambition!
