Hulkenberg will "return the favour" to Magnussen for Jeddah F1 help
Hulkenberg took advantage of staying out under an early safety car during the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix, a move that didn’t pay off for Norris and Hamilton. He had to make a green flag pitstop, potentially dropping out of points contention, but Magnussen’s strategic pass on Tsunoda created a buffer for him. Magnussen helped Hulkenberg maintain his position by slowing down the chasing pack, allowing Hulkenberg to pit without losing his spot. The successful plan earned Hulkenberg a valuable point, described as “gold dust” by team principal Komatsu. Hulkenberg expressed gratitude for Magnussen’s teamwork and pledged to return the favor in the future. Despite briefly battling with Ferrari’s Bearman, Hulkenberg finished 10th and praised the young debutant’s strong performance.
